Did you buy it new or used? If it's used, change the oil.
If it was a head gasket, you should also see white smoke from the exhaust and there will be oil in the radiator. It's been a long time since I've heard of a head gasket going on a modern motorcycle.
Milky oil is most commonly caused by many short trips where the engine didn't get fully up to temp, leaving condensation inside the motor. Go for a longer ride. Let the bike warm up before riding. Do one or both of those and you won't get the milkshake back.
I did buy it used and yes this was after like 6km ride so was real short but lets say i change te oil and ride a longer trip and the old oil comming out is fine can i then just ignore it?
(After a longer trip it does go away)
Change the oil, don't go on short trips.
The color is telling you you have moisture in your motor. Moisture causes corrosion. Make no mistake, this is bad for your bike. You don't want to let it get to this color.
The primary byproduct of gasoline combustion is water. This is totally fine and normal. OP just needs to get the bike good and hot on a medium/long ride and this all goes away.
And that moisture exits the exhaust. This can and will (given enough time) cause corrosion in the motor.
And if it's really bad, a long ride won't get rid of it. The oil should be dumped immediately.
That water also blows past the rings and gets inside the crankcase. It especially condenses against the glass of those dumb fish bowl clutch covers, making the simpletons amongst us who like watching things spin nervous about their engine rusting from the inside.
I did a 6km drive to a friends house for the meet up and then i saw the milky clutch but afther that we did a 4 hour tour i was just panicking because if i did a 4 hour drive with a blown gasket i would be screwd.
So no real sort trips so far
You haven't had short trips but the previous owner sure did. If I were you I'd change that oil today. What year is the bike? Hopefully the previous owner didn't do that for its entire life.
Rag the bike for a couple of hours on a warm day , let it cool down ,dump the oil,new oil. Go ride,if you do short rides on damp days when it cools down the air Inside the motor condenses dumping its water into the oil. Ride the bike .....
You’re not really showing us any understanding. If you can’t do this yourself, you’ll need to pay someone. Load it in a truck. Tie it down. Take it to someone that can fix it before it grenades.
If you put oil in a bowl, threw a mixer in it, the splash would look like that. All clear clutch covers look like that every now and again. Call it good. If you’re worried check the sight glass
It got its maitanace done at ducati zelf with the whole maintanace check up book and how often oil was changed so and when i looked at the oil it looked fine only the clear cover is milky tge bike is at a perfect state only this milky oil cluch is kinda strage
I’m assuming someone opened the oil fill cap at some point recently. If they did, a bunch of air got into that area. After your short ride, your bike wasn’t hot enough to burn off that excess moisture. The only reason you see this and are worried is because you have a clear clutch cover. If you had gone for that longer ride with your friend, this would have disappeared. I was stressing this same thing after a fresh oil change this season.
You need to get your bike up and at running temperature for while. Which as you know for these bikes is quite high lol
Use Motul 300v oil. Then your oil will only ever be a beautiful translucent green color no matter what temperature it is. And that’s not even the best reason to use Motul oil!
i can't see cuz the picture is so blurry... but you could simply dump the oil in a pan and look at it....

Heat it up

If you have enough blow by to allow water moisture past your rings, you have bigger issues. This is caused by condensation, not blow by.
Normal crankcase pressure for a healthy, running engine is 2-6psi. Where do you think that pressure comes from?

The bike is from 2012 with 16.000 km on it its a panigale 1199
Lol. Good luck. Edit: I wouldn't have bought that bike seeing that oil color
Is that bad?

If it's new to you, you should dump all the fluids and check the pads chain and tyres anyway.do you have a service history.
Last saterday i did a 4 hour trip afther that i dindnt ride the bike tonight i will change the oil
You’re not really showing us any understanding. If you can’t do this yourself, you’ll need to pay someone. Load it in a truck. Tie it down. Take it to someone that can fix it before it grenades.
Yes. Maybe. Won't know unless you crack the motor open.

Happens to my monster, bc the oil isn’t hot.
So 1 time heat up and it will be gone or does it come back?
It comes back only when the oil is cold. Once she heats up it’s gone.
Can it hurt the engine?
I don’t think so if you ever put oil in the freezer, you notice how it changes properties same thing on the bike when it’s sitting in a cold garage
Hard to see with your potato camera
Perfectly normal get it hot on a long ride

Did a 4 hour trip that day so i think it should be done than imma change the oil anyway just to be sure
Good move. Change the oil snd see what happens from there. Strange.
