I'm not happy with the clutch on my 748. Something isn't quite right. I had the pressure plate off to have a look a week or so ago, and I'm going...
I've got one of those on my bike. But by the time I'd imported it from the US, paid customs duties and VAT (and also paid someone to fit it for...
My take on those brass waisted screws is that they're more trouble than they're worth. I've always replaced mine with stainless Allen screws.
I'd suspect the connection underneath the headlight. If you wiggle it, does the front start working?
70,000 miles on my 748. Still running very well. Do I get the silver medal? :D

Well I'm back home with the belts all done, and I have to say, Ducati Preston, who did indeed give me a lift back home, couldn't have been more...
It wouldn't hurt just to dress the tangs on the plates with a file! That outer basket looks very notched, but for me, the test is, does it work...
As I said upthread, there is no way I'm embarking on doing my own belts. If some of you guys can do it blind-folded, well, good for you. But I'm...
I know Lee, if it's the same guy. He's moved around a bit, hasn't he? Used to be in Rochdale, was it? Or Bury? Somewhere like that. Leeds and...
So I just rang Ducati (Preston, not Manchester, cos it's a bit easier to get to), and, as I expected, they were not enthusiastic.. It was "Oh...
As above. My old 748 (well, I guess they're all old now!) is due a belt change on a time basis. Although I've put a lot of miles on the clock in...
Well, I had my nice little Monster, and it was newer, much less mileage, and in better condition that the 748. And I told myself, this is the bike...
Just catching up with the thread; some inspiring stories there, guys!
I have Allen screws going into captive nuts under my 748 fairings, they are a lot safer than Dzus fasteners I think. I've suffering disappearing...
As for the cataracts, that was done at a private clinic, but through the NHS. The opticians will only let you go for it when your eyes get quite...
Interesting what you say about the Monster, I had lovely Monster, an air-cooled 800, only a few thousand miles on the clock, and my ageing 748....
I'm not getting any younger, I'll be 70 in a few months. I used to do 15k a year on my 748, these days it's barely 1000. But but but... I've...
Have you taken the clutch plates out and examined the clutch basket for notchy grooves? And likewise the tangs on the plates?
I didn't think anything prior to the 749/999 had a clutch micro-switch. Surely with a well set-up dry clutch, there should be hardly any...
