Re: Bad Bearing

That was a rubber sealed bearing, the bearing number was probably moulded into the rubber seal, if you need to identify it you can either use steine dinse or another supplier.

Re: cam pulley

The bore on the pulley has a step worn in it about 0.6 mm fortunately there is no wear I can measure on the camshaft. Can you suggest an adjustable pulley I could use? The 916 pulleys would be free from a mate,well apart from postage or fuel to pick them up.

Valve shim diameter

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

Re: HELP NEEDED Regulator Wires Brown & Pink

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

I used M6 flanged stainless allen bolts and spacers were turned from a spare length of nylon bar Will be nice to see another 906 on the roa...
