Re: Coolant temperature gauge
I think you may be right about the batteries the charging on the bike is from a wire wound coil the same as my old charger has! The quality of lithium batteries depends on how the man in China has made it. Maybe after corona virus companies will be less willing to source manufacturing there. With th...

Re: Coolant temperature gauge
Re your lithium battery my battery went flat and my lithium charger would not recharge it. I put an old 12v charger with a wire wound transformer on it for 1 hour then put it back on the lithium charger and it then fully recharged. Lithium batteries are strange things!

Re: Covid -19 and a 907ie Clutch ( Idle but puzzling thought
Great idea to fix the bike, sorry I can’t help about the clutch! I think people who ride Ducati’s regularly might have greater resistance to Covid 19.
Hoping all our friends across the world are bearing up against this awful virus?

Re: Constant rain ☔️
On a more worrying note 2 ducks crossed the road today and started swimming in the drainage ditch at the side of the road ! Seems nature is starting to take over the road side waterways!

Re: Constant rain ☔️
My first 907 ie I had Oxford heated grips fitted, they were great! I have fitted heated grips to my 907 ie and Benelli 900, they mean you can ride for longer in winter.

Re: Constant rain ☔️
I do have an old Benelli 250 which I use in winter but this is being prepared to go to the Isle of Man TT In June. On a weather up date it is still raining in the UK . I think we must have half the Southern Hemispheres rain! As soon as I do get out I will post some pictures to inspire others to go f...

Constant rain ☔️
Can somebody turn the rain tap off? This winter in the UK we seem to have rain every other day and I want( need!) to go out on my bike. Is it the same in Europe and around the world? I am suffering BWS ( bike withdrawal symptoms) the only cure is a couple of hours riding!

Re: Wow, No Post Since December
The salt they put on the roads to stop ice causes bad corrosion if you don’t wash it off straight away in the UK. I don’t mind riding in the cold but I don’t want the Duke suffering!

Re: Wow, No Post Since December
We are having a very wet winter in the UK! And I think this is keeping the bikes inside. How is it where you are? My bike is all prepped for the spring, just waiting for the sun to come out!

Re: Oil leaks 89 900 ss
Hi HIGHWAY89, sorry to hear about your mum it’s tough looking after family! I have been visiting my sister in hospital since last October and last Saturday she passed away! I hope you get a little time to fix your bike in between looking after your mum!

Re: Oil leaks 89 900 ss
I had a project that hat was stalling and wanted to ride it in the summer, I booked a week off and every day at 8.00am I was in the workshop. Each day I focused on a task and by Friday I was taking my bike for its vehicle test. I spent the weekend making final adjustments concluding with a fab ride ...

Re: Another 907 back on the road (almost)!
Sorry to hear you have issues, try some simple things; has a wire come off a sensor around the Engine, check the spark plugs to get an idea if it’s flooding or starving itself of fuel. Assuming it has had a new filter in the fuel system, has this clogged with dirt from the tank. All worth checking a...
