  2. Thanks!

    Quick one , how is your speedo cable by the calliper attached , mine just sits freely
     
  3. Carlo there is a small peg just forward of the drive cable on the top of the plastic enclosure, this abuts the lower mudguard mounting strap.
     
  4. Thanks again , will take a look
     
  5. Nothing on the bike I can see,

    Does anybody have a picture of the Speedo cable retaining clip? Searched online but could not find anything yet
     
  6. Does anybody know brembo caliper pinch bolt torque, cannot find anything online

    To put a monoposto on a Biposto , you need to change

  7. Carlo, here are all the frame torque settings. If you need engine settings I'll post them up later

    Not sure you will get the torque settings for the calliper bolts as Brembo don't recommend dismantling to that level (breaking apart the two halves of the calliper). Some calliper bolts are one time use and should not be reused, not sure if that is the case with these. Also I don't know if new ones are available from anywhere

  8. Thanks Denzil , thats fantastic! taught you posted all the torque settings already :)

    I got some Probolt Brembo Cailper bolts to tidy her up , some bolts on mine are rusted, spent 12 hours Saturday doing all new brake lines and cleaning the calipers , brake pads , clutch lines , oil change , center nut, Exact-fit battery cables, the bolts in the calipers let it down

  9. Hi

    Quick one:

    Sprocket nuts spin freely on the rear Crush Drive Rubber threads , there is play in the rear

    [​IMG]

    I was reading this about the design fault in the rear carrier when the crush rubber drives fail
    http://www.diablo944.co.uk/996sprocket.htm

    I have decided to get

    Renthal sprockets and DID Chain with the Renthal Carrier to address the design flaw

    · Front Part Number : 344A-520-14P
    · Rear Sprocket 358-520-38HA (Gold)
    · Rear Carrier D181
    · DID Chain 520 Z-VMX (Gold)

    Question is

    What are the options if the adjuster is worn from failed crushed drives on the Swingarm? (will take a look tonight as I know what to look for)

    If the carrier needs replacing
     
  10. Carlo, if there is no swarf, your adjuster should be ok. Looks like you may need new cush drives, some play is normal. I think there is a different design of centre bush fitted to later models which gets rid of the risk of a sloppy sprocket. From MY01 a single spacer was used inboard of the sprocket which replaced a circlip and two large spacer washers

  11. denzil you really know a lot of good stuff...im off to check speedo cable routing on my ohlins
     
  12. Thanks !
     
  13. Sorry for all the Q's

    As my bike is MY01 748 Reading up, Ducati did address a different issue with the carrier. This concerned the circlip on the carrier shaft. These circlips are prone to wearing the groove wider over time than it was designed for. As a result it lets the whole carrier move towards the swingarm (with equally destructive results as the cush drive problem). A redesign was eventually created at around the end of the 996 production run. They machined off the highly dubious circlip portion of the carrier and fitted a conical spacer to keep the sprocket free of the adjuster and swingarm.

    I presume this is a new carrier required? and not covered in parts I am looking at so far , I cannot find the part

    · Front Part Number : 344A-520-14P
    · Rear Sprocket 358-520-38HA (Gold)
    · Rear Carrier D181
    · OE Crush Drives

  14. Part number for the later spacer that replaced the two large washers and circlip is 714.1.041.1A "Spacer", the later sprocket flange assembly is 160.2.021.1C , earlier sprocket flange assembly is 160.2.021.1B. I would get the new spacer and try it with the existing flange assembly (sprocket carrier) before getting the newer one as IIRC they are interchangeable but cannot be 100% sure. Best speak with Craig at Moto Rapido
     
  15. Thanks Denzil , could not find anything online to reference a part number
     
  16. Took some photos today

    Is the sprocket carrier on mine , have the crush rubber drives failsafe like the Renthal?

    Was looking at my speedo cable again , I honestly still cannot see anything I can connect it to, to stop it rubbing the disk brake , am I missing something?

  17. Speedo drive doesn't look located properly, the cable looks to have too sharp a bend in it. there is a lug for it to locate onto, my cable goes straight up parallel with the fork leg.Looking at your first picture the speedo drive cable exit should be at 12 O,clock not 1 as in the picture.

  18. Carlo, of the 4 white plastic straps which mount the mudguard, there is one which has a small lug moulded onto it on the inside and it has a different part number to the other three, it is easy to miss this if you don't know about it but it is the one that sits on the bottom of the left hand fork as you sit on the bike. That small lug locates with a small lug on the top of the speedo drive. First thing you need to do is have a close look at the white straps to find this and you will begin to uncover the answer to your problem. download the parts book from here http://www.ducati.com/ducati_genuine_parts.do and look at page 96 for a diagram which shows what you are looking for. Your sprocket looks like its the OEM one and has nothing to prevent the cush drives backing out.
     
  19. Thanks Guys! Much apprecaited
