We have received some reports about the failure to display the gear engaged on the instrument panel and
the validation of the error P0916 - Gear Sensor [Short-circuit to ground or Open Circuit]. Based on the
analyses carried out, this phenomenon is due to an overheating of the gear sensor.
Two types of gear sensors have been installed on the Panigale V4 family, depending on the Model Year
(suppliers: Hirschmann and Novotechnik), which differ both for the type of wiring and the magnet placed
inside the selector drum. The two gear sensors are NOT interchangeable at all.

Notes and Indications - Corrective action

For the motorcycles featuring the Novotechnik gear sensor, a new stronger sensor is available as a spare
part, which avoids the phenomenon described above. For the motorcycles featuring the Hirschmann gear
sensor, refer to CR200 (SRV-TSB-20-012 bulletin). We therefore invite you to first check the type of
sensor installed on the motorcycle and then, as a corrective action, follow the table below.

• PRELOAD
The preload must be set to +2 turns from fully open.

Notes and Indications - Corrective action
We have received some isolated reports about a possible hardening of the gear shift when hot with
consequent difficult selection of gear ratios. Based on the analyses carried out, this phenomenon could be
due to a hardening between the gearbox sensor magnet plastic support and the relevant seat inside the
cover.
You are kindly asked to carry out the following operations:
1) Remove the gear shift cover (1) on motorcycle LH side
2) Check for the presence of shim (2)
3) Mill the end face of the plastic cage for the selector magnet (3) shorter by 0.1 mm maximum and the
outer curved edge where it enters the bore of the cover by 0.1 mm maximum, or mill the internal
surface (4) of the cover highlighted in the figure and remove 0.1 mm maximum of material from the
end and bore of the recess. Ensure the orientation of the magnet is not changed on the shift selector or
the gear position will not be able to be determined by the sensor.

Please note that a new engine calibration is available for improved power delivery and hot start. The new
calibration will not be proposed automatically but should be installed only in case of Customer complaint.
Before and after the installation of the new calibration, it is necessary to make a LOG, from cold engine to
hot engine, of the following parameters (select them from ECU self-diagnosis - parameters - new favorite
list):
HOR A/F self-learning, VER A/F self-learning, HOR lambda correction and VER lambda correction, engine
speed [rpm], MAF target, engine temperature, atmospheric pressure, HOR MAP, VER MAP and Purge
valve - PWM.

Notes and Indications - Corrective action
We have received some isolated reports about an incorrect
coupling between the silencer covers and the side half
fairings in case the complete Akrapovic racing titanium
exhaust system, supplied with the motorcycle, is installed.
In fact, it is possible to find a misalignment between the
mounting holes of the components.
To improve this coupling, it is possible to slot-drill the 4
mounting holes of the silencer covers by using a column drill
with a 6 mm drill bit and setting a high rotation speed to
prevent the fiber from flaking off.
We have received some isolated reports about the possible popping out of
the dust seal on the rear shock absorber buffer support plug.
Do NOT replace the rear shock absorber.
To avoid the phenomenon described above it is necessary to:
- apply a few drops of LOCTITE 638 on the plug, at the dust seal seat;
- place the dust seal on the plug using an open-end wrench and hold it for
a few seconds;
- carefully clean any residues of LOCTITE 638 that may have fallen
accidentally on the rod and on any other surface.
Please note that the supplier, Sachs, has introduced LOCTITE 638 during the
assembly stage from week 29-2020 (this information can be found on the
sticker on the shock absorber body).

We have received reports concerning the switching on of the OBD warning light on the instrument panel
and error validation:
• P2100 ATT injection control unit, Front bank ETC electronic throttle motor power stage (Cyl 1-2) [Open
circuit]
• P210A ATT injection control unit, Rear bank ETC electronic throttle motor power stage (Cyl 3-4) [Open circuit]
If your motorcycle is in these conditions, we ask you to check the status of the engine ECU connector as
there may be moisture inside it and to fill out a Youtech service request attaching photos of the connector
and specifying if the motorcycle has been washed with a pressure washer (with or without side fairings).

Notes and Indications - Corrective action
We would like to inform you that starting from the frame number ZDMHAATW2MB003762, a spacer and a
Teflon anti-rotation washer have been introduced at the front fixing screw of the shock absorber to prevent
possible contact between the rear shock absorber reservoir and the vertical head manifold head guard. The
contact results in a cosmetic defect only.
In case of complaints from the Customer, it is possible to proceed with the installation of spacer part no.
7111D981AA (A) and washer part no. 7131E352A (B), as shown in the figure.
We remind you to always apply the screw M10x45 (1) with Shell GADUS S2 V220 AD 2 grease and to
tighten the screw to the new torque of 47 Nm (the previous tightening torque was 45 Nm).

Introduction of clutch

Housing
clutch

We have received some isolated reports of possible clutch slipping, due to clutch housing indentation,
which does not allow the drive and driven plates to come back into contact with each other correctly.
This phenomenon depends on the use of the motorcycle and the user, therefore for racing use we suggest
replacing the plates approximately every 5000km,.
We would like to inform you that the new clutch housing with deep anodizing part no. 19810671C, replacing
the natural grey one, is available as a spare part; this treatment improves the reliability of the clutch housing
reducing the damaging of the drive plates on its contact surface.

-

Make sure that the rear brake caliper hose (yellow), passes
outside the left side cover mounting bracket with respect to the
motorcycle centerline and is fixed with the two self-locking ties
(red) as shown in the figure.
The operation of inspection and possible repositioning is very
simple and involves the disassembly of the left side cover only.
Due to a supply error, you may find brackets for soft side bags inside the accessory kit and the presence of
a pair of non-compliant M10X45 screws as they are partially threaded instead of completely threaded, as
shown in the figure.
We ask you to always check that all the kit components are present and correct before installing them and,
if the screws are not correct, order the 2 screws M10X45 part no. 77242713C (the parts in stock have been
