Battery Replacement for the Ducati Monster 796

Model: Ducati Monster 796
Part: Battery

Video tutorial

Let's see how to proceed with replacing the battery on a Ducati Monster 796. Open and remove the seat, unscrew the screws securing the flange around the fuel tank cap and those securing the two half-shells covering the tank, and remove everything. Unscrew and remove the plastic panel under the seat to also unscrew the screw fixing the tank.

On the left side, you will find a bolt securing the tank to the frame; unscrew this as well to be able to slide and lift the tank from its position after disconnecting and temporarily sealing the fuel vapour breather hose. This gives you access to the battery; disconnect the terminals from the poles and unclip the securing strap, remove the old battery and replace it with a new one. Reattach the terminals, ensuring the correct polarity, secure the strap, and reassemble everything in reverse order.

An Affordable Modification to Solve a Problem on the Yamaha MT07

This video shows how to solve a problem affecting the Yamaha MT07 with a very affordable modification. This bike requires a specific movement of the throttle grip to accelerate, which forces the right wrist into an unnatural twist. You can remedy this by fitting the throttle control from the R6, which reduces the rotation from 90° to 45°; the cost is under £25 even when buying the original part directly from the dealership. As shown, the disassembly and reassembly work is extremely simple; just be careful not to let the throttle guide slip, as it has its seat directly in the cover. You can see the difference in hand position after replacing the grip.
