The Ducati Wheelie Control system (DWC)
supervises control of wheelie movement and
settings vary through eight different levels that are
calibrated to offer a different prevention and reaction
to wheelies. Each Riding Mode features a preset
intervention level. Level eight indicates a setting that
minimizes motorcycle tendency to shift up in a
wheelie and maximizes reaction to the same, if it
occurs. While level one is for expert riders and
features a lower wheelie control in terms of
prevention and less strong reaction to the same, if it
occurs.
Attention
DWC is a rider aid that can be used both on the
track and the road. The system is designed to make
riding easier and to enhance safety, but in no way
relieves the rider of the obligation to ride responsibly
and maintain a high standard of conduct in
accordance with traffic laws so as to avoid accident
or force emergency maneuvers, whether caused by
his own errors or those of other road users.
The rider must always be aware that active safety
systems have a preventive function. The active
elements help the rider control the motorcycle,
making it as easy and safe to ride as possible. The
presence of an active safety system should not
encourage the rider to ride at speeds beyond the
reasonable limits, not in accordance with road
conditions, the laws of physics, good riding standards
and traffic laws.
