Thanks man. Needed to guide a wire from the seat to the cockpit. Couldn’t do it without removing the stuff on the right side. Your video helped me do it safe. Cheers 🙏🏻
I wanted to keep the front DIN socket clear for other things, so I fished a wire from the rear DIN socket which I'd never use up to the front of the bike. Man routing the wire through the space between the tank cover and the tank was a bitch even after removing the cell phone pouch. Seeing how you lifted the tank off will help me in the future. I run a Garmin mini Dash Cam on my windshield that needs power on/off when the bike is on and off. Works well.
Hi, fellow BC rider, got the same exact bike pretty much and I just wanted to ask about clearance under the tank cover. Do you think there’s enough space there to cleanly route an OptiMATE USB adapter cable up under the tank cover to the bars? Or maybe I can more simply run it around the tank without taking the tank cover off? Thanks for the video 👍
Hi, not quite BC. I'm just across the border in Washington. If I remember right, you should have plenty of room to run your wire under there. What's the cable for?
@@zainulahmed7542 I see - it’s a 3300mA USB-A connector for my phone. The cable has a small inline converter box that I’ll try and tuck-away somewhere. I could use the 12V plug up front but I wanted a clean and simple weatherproof connector. If I need to add temporary devices I might look at using the 12V plug.
I forgot to ask, is your bike out of warranty? Just curious as to why you're doing this fix rather than DUCATI. Thanks for the video. Good stuff. I wish I would've seen this video before I took my V4 pikes Peak apart
@@zainulahmed7542 yeah, me too. I wanted to do my own oil change, but the dealer threatened me that if it wasn’t documented that they did it my warranty could be in jeopardy. So I just let them do all the scheduled, maintenance and warranty work and all of the aftermarket Farkle’s I install myself that, and of course, chain maintenance I do myself.
@Magicinstalls yeah, thats some B.S. I did find a scanner that could clear the service reminders, but that only worked until the 2nd update from ducati. I get the first oil change, I've heard they can send the oil sample in just to make sure the motor is healthy but after that it makes no sense.
He did not. It turns out that if you change the mapping in the ECU and do not flash the BCM( which requires a 24-hour code from italy), the BCM will throw a code. Took a very good tech at Richmond Ducati to figure it out. Huge pain to fix it as well. The bike has to be hooked up, and a tech in Italy has to reflash everything.
@zainulahmed7542 Gotcha. I've had my share of techs screwing things up, so I was wondering if you'd suffered the same fate. Hope all is well now and Happy Thanksgiving to you andyourfamily.
Hello, i want to install the originial Duc heated grips ‚plug & play‘… after looking at the assembly instructions, I'm not sure whether I have to remove the entire gas tank to do this.. ???
I've had my pikes peak apart many a time. Very strange phenomenon. If you look at some of those fasteners, they're actually hex Keys, but the T2 five fits just fine. Also that duct on the right side getting it back into the body. Work is a son of a bitch, what did DUCATI charge you to pull the code? They charge me for everything!
I had it done in canada so I got 25% off but I want to say it was 180 at one dealer. The second one I went to, which is also the tech that got it all figured out, only charge me for 15min to pull the code and half hour to have it all fixed. He just charged me for hooking the bike up to the ducati system, some tech in Italy did the work but I wasn't charged for that.

I'm glad I could help. I miss the days of just taking out 3 bolts and lifting the gas tank off.
Thanks for posting
Thank you.
Did you notice where charcoal cannister was ? I want to remove mine but would like a general location before I start... Thanks

No im well below the warranty period. To much of a gear head. I did get it fixed, though. It required a tech in Italy to fix it.

Nice video. I was hoping to find out if your problem was what you thought. Did you find that the tech inadvertently had bumped the connector?
He did not. It turns out that if you change the mapping in the ECU and do not flash the BCM( which requires a 24-hour code from italy), the BCM will throw a code.

@makemyday8426 I'm not sure. I'd hope that the main factory harness would be ran almost to the bars, but ducati seems to like making things difficult.
