  1. You can still buy these from Ducati I believe , and they are not too expensive.
     
    • Thanks Thanks x 1
  2. Not sure why, but I didn’t expect to be able to buy new ones.
    Will have a look.

    Cheers.
     
  3. I had to buy the rubber ones on the heads behind the pulleys as they eventually crack and fall apart. About 25 quid each, but the plastic ones I think are cheaper

  4. I would mend that with aluminium mesh and Araldite.
     
  5. I think I will give it a try, especially as they are cheap to replace if I cock it up :)
     
  6. I would go the fibreglass route as its a stressed part of the fairing, I would put a patch over the area big enough to take the load of the mounting.

  7. Another potentially silly question :)

    For checking the valve clearances are standard flat blade style feeler gauges suitable ?
     
  8. Absolutely

  9. Finally managed to order some tools I need to do a bit more on the bike.
    (See other thread about tools, I check my shed roof almost daily now :))

    Probably more stupid questions to follow soon o_O

  13. It’s slow going, but managed to find time to repair the belt cover and refit them.

    I only re-checked the belt tension 10-15 times before putting the covers on too, that’s good for me. :)

  15. Same amount of times I check the kitchen doors locked before turning in.

  16. OCD?
     
  17. Undoubtedly :), strangely though it’s the only manifestation I have of it, there’s just something about that bloody back door!
