Thanks will get tools ordered

Hi ,planning on checking the valve clearances, looking around the web there appears to be 2 different diameter shims that ducati use on different models each size needing different tools to measure and remove shims, so can someone please tell me which size ,7 or 8mm diameter are used on the 906 Thanks

Thats what I paid for mine when I bought it, the whole bike that is
Spent about the same on bits, belts, ignition, chain and sprockets, reg /rec and a couple of relays,.
Glued and patched up an indicator lens with clear araldite mixed with orange acrilyc paint

Sorry for late reply. I think the coils are normally live when ignition is on ie they have 12volts supplied from the ignition switch , the signal side is tthe earth through the ignition module so if the ecu earth connection is not good or non existent then that could be the cause of your problems

small led voltage meters are a cheap and easy fix. I used a charge warning light on mine wrhen I changed the regulator./ Rectifier https://www.google.com/search?q=improving+classic+motorcycles&ei=BNYNY7D-EbGx8gK98ozoDw&oq=improving+classic+motorcycles&gs_lcp=ChNtb2JpbGUtZ3dzLXdpei1zZXJw...

Hi was out on the 906 yesterday for a test ride and to get fuel, the only problem is the fuel gauge was fine when filled but after a while when fuel level started to drop the gauge started to bounce up and down quite rapidly. when I got back with the bike on its stand the gauge was steady but if I r...
