Most people find that tightening the various power leads takes care of the issue.

If you have a new battery, it's best to make sure it's fully charged before installing it. Do you have a tender to keep it topped up when not riding?

But to answer your original question, I've thought about getting that cabling upgrade kit as well. It may not be a glaring issue on these bikes, but a gauge increase and better quality connectors is not a bad idea. I've picked up a lightweight battery and thought about the wiring upgrade just for a little insurance against colder days.

cable battery / upgrade

Well I've fitted a new battery
done all the usual cleaning connections and pre charge and after about 3 days it started on the slow crank problem .

considering the kit is only $75.00 and can really do know harm .

Its sound feasible that ducati would skimp on big enough battery leads and sub quality connectors

Will do a before and after crank same as the you tube on the suppliers web site
Thanks Shane
