So was out today for a short shakedown before a good ride this evening and noticed this when I had a check over and clean! front sprocket thrust washer? Tried looking for part number and availability but drawing blanks. To fit Panigale 959... Nothing on eBay.... so reaching out for somebody that might have a spare?? Or a part number??? Ta...
What bike? Try you dealer, about £1.00 Here's a common one... https://www.bike-parts-ducati.com/ducati-motorcycle/assignment_spare_parts/85110041A
so that must be an after market piece being cast, failure was going to happen. Steel is the best solution and not lightness as this shows.
Panigale 959 but pretty sure all V2's will be the same... It's the OE thrust washer and been on around 1800 miles since changing sprockets. Perhaps it needed to have a new one after sprocket change....
original Ducati Thrust washer? never seen a cast item on any sprocket nut in my life time. Perhaps it was changed when someone put the aftermarket TI bolt in then.
The Ti bolt was fitted when the sprocket was changed. The OE thrust washer is domed like and just presumed it was reusable as long as it was fitted the correct way round and torqued to the correct setting. But obviously not.... pretty sure this washer is the same for all the Pani range....
Then you need this one: bit more expensive as they break https://www.bike-parts-ducati.com/ducati-motorcycle/assignment_spare_parts/85212801A
Talk about inflation!!!! I only paid £22 for the sprocket.... what's it made of? Apart from cheese! ..... Solid Green...
