Re: 750 barrels and piston wanted

Goods new story. The parts turned up from Germany, and without me even thinking to ask, they have done the paper work so the parts said slightly less than £150!! Result no post brexit import taxes. Yippee 🥳 A happy ending

750 sport wiring diagram quality

I have found a wiring diagram in the documents section (in the manual) but the resolution is so poor I cannot figure out the code for the individual cables. I'm also not sure the colour version is right as a couple of wires I looked at were different to my bike. Is there a technical solution (Ive tr...

Re: 750 barrels and piston wanted

Ah!!! I was about to say, none in the UK (still true) and the European ones are still over £300 plus crazy shipping. Just looked now and a breaker has reduced the price to £250 (with postage) which is fine. Let’s hope I don’t get stung with an import tax when it turns up at my door next week. (I hav...

750 barrels and piston wanted

Does anyone have a set of 750 barrels and pistons they will sell to me. (Paso or 750 sport) . Ideally UK based but Europe OK if cheap enough as I will have to pay import duties :banghead:

Re: Shortage of 16 inch tyres again

Just got a front and rear from eBay uk. The supplier is WSC performance in Bristol.They were stamped wk 37 year 24. So not that long out of the factory relatively speaking. I didn't need them immediately but a I will in a month or two - I figured I’ll buy before this batch is all gone.

Conti exhaust

Hi, I have what appears to be a conti 2-1 exhaust/silencer set up on my 906 bike. This sounds glorious and is one of my favourite Ducati engine noises by a long way. It’s just so sweet when I ride her. However, the silencer end is getting ever more tatty and really lets the bike down. I suspect I ha...

Re: Poor starting

Thank you for your suggestions. They are mikunis from a 900ss and running fine. I did the simplest mod as per the instructions FAQ ( basically providing 12 v directly to the coils via a relay). What a transformation! The old girl fires up within a revolution or two as opposed to the 4 or 5 seconds p...

Poor starting

I think I know what your answers will be but maybe I just need pushing into doing it!! oK here goes. My 906 has never been a good starter especially when cold. So this is the list of what I have done previously and then this summer. New cables and connectors from battery to relay to starter. New ear...

Re: Certificate of conformation COC

Not sure of your reasons for needing the COC but I went through (the normally successful) channels to get the COC (for my 1990 906 paso) so I could demonstrate the NOx levels were below the London limit to avoid a pollution charge when taking her out. After much communication Ducati Italy declared t...

Re: Rear shock options

Had a useful chat with Brook suspension here i the uK wrt new rear shock. Nitron don’t do a size that fits. YSS do specify one for the 750 paso. They have given me the dimensions but clearly it would be easier if someone wiser than me on this site could confirm they are the same dimensionally? From ...

Re: Rear shock options

Thanks for your comments. They have been extremely useful. I feel the marzocchi duo is getting closer to the bin! I will be looking into a new replacement. I will report back as to what I purchased and what I think of it.

Re: Rear shock options

Are you trying to tell me the factory lied about BHP when new, AND it’s lost some of them over the last 30 years? You have burst my bubble :lol:

Rear shock options

I can no longer live with the ‘crash bang wallop’ of the very old and knackered marzocchi duo monoshock and need to do something (but can’t throw ohlin type money at it! Searching through the archives it appears the shock is rebuildable (maxton maybe). My first question is, would a new shock, such a...
