Hey Peter
be carefull, my sport went from a road bike rebuild to a trackday bike to now it's a fully fledged Classic race bike!! once you start it's contagious! But hell good fun

Another walk around a 750 ducati except hand made race exhaust. my sport started out as a road bike rebuild, half way through it switched to track bike which became a race bike. Currently it's in the 2nd iteration rebuild, being turned from a race bike that looks like road bike on the track (which i...

Thanks for the help guys. G my static bearing seems to be fixed on a solid 8mm bolt and the height is 24mm and the od is 24mm? bought the bearins today as per your part numbers. so i would need to fit 2 of the static bearings (ie like the mobile tensioner bearings) to make up the height (width of th...

Hi some of you might know this tip, i read it on the TT1, F1 website for cleaning gold Brembo calipers. I did the brake mod and bought a set of 2nd hand gold brembo calipers a while ago. they were ingrained with years of brake dust and i tired a huge number of solvents & cleaners and really did ...

Hi Everyone not sure if that is what they are called - but has anyone changed the two bearing type assemblies (one is attahed to the bracket that you set the belt tension with) which run against the cam belts which set the belt tension? are they simple common bearings or are they special ducati only...

hey Bertus
where are you in Holland? i'm currently in Amsterdam on business for 2 weeks. hoping to get to Assen for the dutch TT before i fly home.

Hey Peter just my opinon on your tyre choice; BT016 for the front - spot on - fantastic tyre, i use this to race on and it's excellant thanks goodness they make this in a 16". As for the rear: when i was rebuilding my sport i initially was going to put it on the road and also bought a Exedra 17...

I wonder if the milliseconds you might gain with no filters are worth getting dirt in the cylinders. There are filter sock you just pull over the velocity stacks. G. Its more than a few milliseconds mate, believe me, and any sock or sponge type filter just gets sucked in and out the exhaust. You wo...

Hi I fitted a set of these approx 6 months ago to my sport (look a bit further down the list of topics) and they have transformed the bike. You are "very" lucky to pick up a bike with these fitted. I went through the "can't get the weber to run phase" to fitting 38mm Mikunis off ...

[Here is a new fork product that is getting some pretty good reviews, and may fit your fork. http://store.ricorshocks.com/ Ricor Intiminators. *] This is interesting, I have just sent all dimensions required from my forks to Race Tech hoping they have a set of emulators that will fit these strange 4...

G - hence why i stopped listening to the guy........... I had to show him the holes in my clutch cover to prove it's a dry clutch!!! Higgy why 0W and why not specifically 5W? Just means at winter tempertures 0 is slighty thinner than 5. I was more concerned about the 40 but having done a fair bit of...

Hi Guys sure this has been covered a few times before but....... What oil do you use? Not so much the make but what viscosity? Tell you why I ask: I was at one of our local race meetings and a some guy who claimed to be a "Ducati Mechanic" asked what oil i was using - told him Castrol R4 S...

thanks for the info guys. thanks G, I already have removed the tank pump and run a low pressure vacuum pump so should be fine. I also rebuild all carbs i get so hopefully all good. Higgy I sold the webber to a guy who was rebuilding a Ford capri V6 long before i read all your info on it. Have since ...

Hi
anyone running these? I just bought a set and will fit and try to get them running this weekend so if anyone has some advice or tips please let me know. thanks

thanks for the info DITB, so best bet would be go looking for a +'02 900 rear shock. the few i have seen are Showa as appoased to the Sachs i have? My shock expert did say you can fit an Ohlins body to my Sachs shock to give it the extra length as well = $120.00 on top of the valve + piston upgrade.
