hi all I recently bought a basket case 750 .. it was heavily crashed 32 years ago and taken apart and stored. it looks like the triple claps for the leading axle marzocchi forks are twisted / bent ... does anyone in the ducati world have experience in straightening these bad boys.... can it be done ? does it need heat ... does any one have a lower for sale ?
Hi Dave: It's good to see a post here after so long. I can't help directly with your question but strongly advise that you post the same on one of the bevel-specific facebook groups. If you are not a fb fan, I will happily do this for you and report back. On the Ducati Bevel Parts and Marketplace fb forum, there is a May 2020 post from a fellow in France selling 750s/GT forks and yolks
hi rick ... i am not a facebook user .. however i could talk to a random mum and ask them to search for me ( chuckle ) would you be able to ask if they are available ? for me
Will do Dave. Hopefully I can report back with something positive. Here is the post from France. If you are interested I can connect to you to the seller, assuming the parts are still available.:
Where in BC are you Dave? I'm in Gibsons. Already got a few responses; one fellow tried straightening triple clamps and gave up. I think finding replacements is the way to go.
