when you buy a brand new bike for 40k usd you dont expect to change brake fluid every year. nearest ducati shop is 3 hours from me. thanks alot for the vid!
Thanks so much. I replaced a new caliper and didn’t what I did wrong. From your video, I detached the whole unit and placed two lawn edger blades to simulate the rotor. I was able to bleed a lot if air out that I didn’t have to do when replacing pads. Thanks again!
Great video. Be careful using that hub stand because one wheel is half over the edge of the table. I would replace the stand or make a side extension from angle iron, to avoid a bad accident. Be safe 👍
I'm guessing the speed bleeder remains locked in place which maintains a solid vacuum to really removed air bubbles. I was getting nowhere using a Mityvac until I put teflon tap on bleeder threads which allowed for a good vacuum to really pull air out of whatever nooks and crannies exist. Now brake works like new. Using the gap gage is a good tip, thanks!
Great informative vid . Ive ordered one of those valves from Germany and hope to fit it later in the week .. we shouldn't have to fanny about in such a manner , its pretty much unacceptable. Ducati / Brembo need to have a talk to themselves
this is amazing derrick. jesus i struggle SO much with my rear brembo brake on my MV Agusta F3 (mounted exactly like your V4). great tip on having the caliper hanging so the air escapes out.
Sell the Rizoma rear brake fluid reservoir. You want to be able to 👀 your fluid level. Buy a Ducabike billet cap for your stock reservoir. They come in different colors and with carbon fiber inserts. Any further thought on insertion of a Ducati V4 motor into your F4? BTW: Was happy you were wearing Ducati attire, instead of Patriots garb...😉
I’m probably going keep it as a parts bike. I don’t have the time for Project like a Ducati motor swap lol. If I can find an F4 motor I’ll drop that in it.
Great video. Your explanations are clear and concise. Great tip on the feeler gauge technique - solves a problem I had with my Ducati for a long time! Thanks.
Nice video ! Thanks for taking time to share. Question. I have a 21 panigale v4s. Do you know the model number of the stahlbus bleeder valve for the rear brake? Do you know the stahlbus bleeders for front calipers, and clutch and clutch master cylinder bleeder? Thanks
What’s up Justin. I don’t know the part number off hand. But if you go to the Stahbus website they have configuration page for their bleeders. You just find your year make and model then go across to see the bleeders available for it.
Thank you so much for doing this video. I’m going to order a 4 pack of the check valves and replace my front break bleeders too. What size thread fits your Brembos? Thanks again!
Hey Mario. I’m not aware of one being available to the general public for the V4 Panigale. That doesn’t mean there isn’t one, just I don’t know about it. Having said that, I’m fortunate enough to have an Indy close to me that’s a Ducati master tech with the Ducati diag tool. In fact, he reset my service light 3 weeks ago lol.
Hey Carlos, Sorry for the super late reply. I'm sure you've figured it out by now. But Stahlbus has a fitment chart for your bike. It lists all of the sizes for the various bleeder valves on the bike.
Derrek I forgot to ask you are the T shirts you offer still available for order a while back I bought a couple off you if possible I would like to reorder the same but a size bigger XXL if possible just let me know much appreciate it
I don't have a SF but seeing that bike is basically a naked version of a fully faired Panigale, I'd be surprised if it wasn't either the same or a very similar process.
Unlike some other manufacturers, Ducati is pretty good at sharing fastener torque specs with its customers. If you go to the Ducati website and plug in your year, make, and model, you should be able to download the torque spec document. Or you can just Google "Ducati Panigale V4 torque settings." You'll get a handful of sites where you can download a PDF with most of the torque values for the bike.
No but you’ll have a lot more room to work if you do. Also, if you try to use the same process I did, you might run into caliper to wheel clearance issues when rotating the caliper vertically if you don’t remove the wheel?

Excellent and informative. Really good video quality, and easy to see the different parts as you work on them. Thank for posting this!
Great video. Be careful using that hub stand because one wheel is half over the edge of the table. I would replace the stand or make a side extension from angle iron, to avoid a bad accident. Be safe 👍
Yeah I know. K&L makes width extensions for the lift, I just keep forgetting to order them lol.

Great tip with the caliper

This isn’t a fool proof way to get all air out of the system, but it should help.
Perfect solution, Thanks for posting mate
Thanks a million; Bro!!!! I already became desperate....
I’ll also change the clutch bleeder valve to a Stahlbus also…
Thank you 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Dude, love your sprocket and hub carrier! What make are they?
Thx bud!! They are from AEM Factory. You can check out my install video here th-cam.com/video/YXRvckECz9k/w-d-xo.html
@@ESBKLife cheers mate
Thnaks broo 👌👌👍👍💪💪

Are you supposed to grease the rear axle before putting the tire back on?
Where'd you get that hoodie?!
I got it at Laguna Seca at a World SBK event many many moons ago when World SBK still visited this venue lol
Thank you so much for doing this video. I’m going to order a 4 pack of the check valves and replace my front break bleeders too. What size thread fits your Brembos? Thanks again!
www.stahlbus.com/info/images/Downloads/Stahlbus-Motorrad-Gewindetabelle.pdf. Just select your bike and they’ll tell you what fits!!👍🏿
Hey if you use a diagnostic tool to check the check engine lights and reset service lights which one do you use or would recommend?
Hey Mario. I’m not aware of one being available to the general public for the V4 Panigale. That doesn’t mean there isn’t one, just I don’t know about it.

Hi, I have one question, what measures It is the Stahlbus? I want to buy one for front and rear.

What was the brand of bleeders? And where to get them? Thank you
The reverse brake bleeds is a V-5 bleeder. I think I got it on Amazon. The pneumatic bleeder is a harbor freight brand.
Is this the same for the 2020 V4. Streetfighter???
I don't have a SF but seeing that bike is basically a naked version of a fully faired Panigale, I'd be surprised if it wasn't either the same or a very similar process.
Anyone know torque specs to tighten those bolts back on?
Unlike some other manufacturers, Ducati is pretty good at sharing fastener torque specs with its customers. If you go to the Ducati website and plug in your year, make, and model, you should be able to download the torque spec document. Or you can just Google "Ducati Panigale V4 torque settings."

What I meant was the bleed nipple, I’m trying to bleed the rear brake on my monster 1200r and the nipple is letting air back in the line, frustrating
Ahhh. Its a speed bleeder from stahlbus. I ordered it directly from their website, www.stahlbus.com/products/en/bleeding-system/index.php
Did anyone Know the torque ?
Do you absolutely have to pull the rear wheel ?
No but you’ll have a lot more room to work if you do. Also, if you try to use the same process I did, you might run into caliper to wheel clearance issues when rotating the caliper vertically if you don’t remove the wheel?
cliff notes: don't buy a ducati
Too late I’ve owned 3 and they are awesome 😝😝
