Many thanks - will allow a direct comparison but I would guess pretty much the same although your tank is different as it’s the S4RS with a different fuel pump and probably some other features. With my 150k miles I’ve ran out of fuel many times on my monster and at most only squeezed 12.8 litres. Took the issue up with Ducati UK as it states 15 litres. Anyway eventually they got back and confirmed there’s a misprint in some specs and only hold 14 litres. Still doesn’t account for 1litre but they said that was fuel pump displacement ?? They assured me if I fill tank - wait until it settles - wiggle bike side to side - put a bit more in and repeat I’ll get there eventually. They did this at Ducati U.K. apparently. I asked about time to achieve this and they laughed? I also questioned my 1098 capacity and they said repeat the same technique. Never tried there suggestions so can’t say if it works or not.
