Re: Brembo 65mm brake adapters

Hi. The adapters look the ducks nuts. From the photos, the friction material of the pad looks to be about central to the brake surface of the disk, so you would have to assume maximum brake force is applied to the disk. As the adaptor is from a 3D printer, I assume the material is plastic? Will the ...

Re: 906 dies after sustained throttle

Can’t edit previous post. The jet went into the feed side to the Weber.

Re: 906 dies after sustained throttle

Hi. I replaced the Y piece in a 750 with a brass Y I found on flea bay. The jet I screwed into the feed line side of the Y, so it was firm and not floating around. The plastic Y fell to bits when I removed it. I guess after 30 odd years it was ready to go!? If the bowl is running dry, it sounds like...

Re: A Question Strangers ........it's a mirror thing.

I think the 907 came with the plate and the mirror clipped on. In the event of an accident, or someone needing a replacement, they pop off rather than being ground off by gravel. I’m pretty sure my 750 has a couple of studs going through the fairing with nuts and washers on the inside. Pretty sure t...

Re: Brembo P4 32/32mm calipers

Hi.
There is a crowd called Powerhouse in England who put together seal kits for all sorts. I purchased a couple of sets for the 907 goldline calipers and a Triumph a few years back. Do a search on eBay for Ducati 907 brake seal and they come up. They post worldwide.
Cheers.
Nick.

Re: 907 Gold valve covers

The black covers are usually on the early P750. They early P750 had a different type of valve train. Can’t remember what changed, but that is when the gold covers started. The changed made it easier to set the gaps and what have you. The two types of covers are also interchangeable so they (the blac...

Re: Bad Bearing

Hi. The bearing should have a number stamped in the outer race. Another spot to look is the Sein Dinse parts and photo web site. They did have the bearing there when I was looking for them. They are pretty common bearing. You will need to remove the assembly and use a punch to knock it through. Once...

Re: 750 vs 906 vs 907 dash

Hey Hamish. Everything looks the same, even down to the membrane PCB. It looks like the previous owner may have even replaced the gauge at some point as it is a bit different in its mounting, so this issue may have been there a while? I just went for it and put in the water temp gauge in to see if a...

750 vs 906 vs 907 dash

Hi. Over the last few years I have come into the possession of a 906 and a P750 to share the shed with the 907. I have finally got around I starting them up and getting them all serviced and all the other good things to make them work. The 750 is now in numerous pieces, but is a runner. The one thin...

Re: Oils ain't oils?

Huh , oils may be getting more expensive ..... but so are engine parts and mechanic's labour . Motorbike engines are a bit different to cars in that they have the gearbox running in the same oil .....which "wears" out the oil faster , so service intervals need to be a bit shorter than car...

Oils ain't oils?

Hi everyone. After a number of years, I have now managed to reunite all 3 bikes in one corner. So the 750, 906 and 907 are now sharing the same shed since coming into my possession. So first thing on the long list is servicing the 3 bikes. Belts are a doddle. Either OE belts and hand over my first b...

Re: Fuel pump holder 82910112a

Hi. This maybe a little bit late, but the fuel pump in my 907 crapped itself after the bike was in storage for about 6 months. I got a complete kit from this crowd, which included the pump, the rubber mount and the plastic plate that clips it all into place. They are: http://www.euromotoelectrics.co...

Hi Stiv. I haven't had a lot of experience with Lithium batteries, but they are going to be the battery of the future. Assuming the resources can be found etc. They are smaller, lighter and can be pretty much taken to dead flat and they will make a come back to life when recharged. A lot of the equi...
