@Borgo Panigale The bolts used to hold my Darmah’s pressure plate are very different… 6 small M5x10 BTRs. And they do not look like they could stretch much. Again, the bike is a 1980 Darmah and packed with OEM nylstop nuts and BTR bolts. I understand that 60’s to early 70s bikes had lots of nuts and bolts issues. An older Ducati rider recently explained me that back in those days, they would literally lose things on the road when riding… When they bought a Ducati from new, the norm was to directly replace every nut by a nylstop.
My clutch centre nut regularly used to loosen off. Sometimes I could get home and sometimes not . Tried everything back in the day, eventually ended up with industrial grade "permanent " locking compound which sort of worked. At least the nut only loosened slowly. I blamed the helical gear forcing tje clutch in and out
Just wondering if you tried them on a record player before installation to ensure no heavy metal satanic messages came out backwards....?
@ducv2 Which nut are you referring to, if I may ask? The big one holding the drum, or the small one used to lock the clutch « rod » adjusting screw ?
By the way, did I mention that I found some really nice bar end mirrors for this bike? Paid 95€ for these, so not unexpensive… However, great quality, and they look almost period correct to me.
