Re: Kiwi's 750 Sport resto
I've had mine for over 10 years now and in most part it's been fairly reliable and great to ride. I had a Weber float failure last year which resulted in flooding, unable to idle and oil contamination. Seeing the Weber uses a pressurised fuel feed, your needle valve and float must be in perfect work...

Re: Kiwi's 750 Sport resto
Hi Kiwi, welcome to the forum and good luck with your restoration \ mod project.
There's some good threads on the forum detailing Weber tuning.
The auxiliary venturi update from 3.5 to 4.5 helped smooth out the flat spot. I also stepped up my idle and primary jets too.

Re: 750 Sport Clutch Cover and Slave Seal
Thanks Mc. It's just another one of those quirks I guess and more hours engineering a solution. It looks like the seep\drip was caused by the bleeding process as there's no further leaking today however I'm yet to ride it. I'll ride it in the coming days and if there's no fluid I'll leave it alone a...

750 Sport Clutch Cover and Slave Seal
Just wondering whether anyone is having the same issue. After 10 years of ownership and only covering about 5000kms, the clutch slave cylinder o-ring looks like it's ready to start weeping again. Over the years I've twice replaced it with Ducati OEM o-rings but after a while starts seeping again. I ...

Would anyone have a spare original owners handbook they'd like to sell?
Thanks

Re: shortage of 16 inch tyres again
Hi Hans,
There doesn't appear to be a stock issue in Australia \ Melbourne. I've checked a couple of local suppliers online and can obtain a set if needed. That being said, my tyres are are 11 years old (DOT0413) and covered 5000kms therefore I should plan a tyre update in the near future.

Re: 1989 750 Sport idle issue
I'll do some further tests at another stage. I had the gauge connected just before the carburetor banjo so technically it should be at it's full operational pressure point. That being said some pressure would be absorbed by the return line too. Main thing for me right now is that the 750 is operatio...

Re: 1989 750 Sport idle issue
Perhaps. The current pump pushes fuel at a rather slow rate. I pressure tested it and was only receiving 1 psi from the gauge. That being said it works well enough........the gauge is a cheapy from eBay so it's accuracy could be questioned too. I've since fitted new fuel lines and decent clamps so i...

Re: 1989 750 Sport idle issue
Thanks MC. Yes, there's a return line to the tank (no reg) that diverts via a small t-junction midway to the carburetor. My return line is only about 180mm, again fuel pressure doesn't appear to be an issue. In fact too much pressure brought me issues when I attempted to renew the pump. I suspect I ...

Re: 1989 750 Sport idle issue
Idle issue fixed.......I went on a 70km ride today and it ran perfectly. I'll leave things alone for the moment until trying the vacuum pump solution.
It's actually nice to have it back on the road again.

Re: 1989 750 Sport idle issue
Update: The Weber has been serviced and checked over with a brand new float, pump diaphragm and needle valve. The technician performed various bench tests and could no longer detect a fault. The standard fuel pump remains to avoid introducing new problems. After some minor idle and air adjustments i...

Re: 1989 750 Sport idle issue
I mentioned brass as a replacement and the Tech recommends the plastic \ original fitment. I'll go with him on this one.

Re: 1989 750 Sport idle issue
To be perfectly honest here, this is just a wild guess, and probably totally irrelevant to your bike but the 906 pasos have a fuel pressure regulator in the fuel feed to the carb where excess fuel is returned to the tank, does your bike have a similar system fitted, if it does does the regulator wo...

Re: 1989 750 Sport idle issue
read this thread on vacuum fuel pumps https://forums.ducatipaso.org/viewtopic.php?t=6800 Hi Higgy, I like this idea, looks simple and efficient. Any common issues being introduced? Would this pump be suffice? https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/235340342050?hash=item36cb60a322:g:kokAAOSwgdlleApR&amdata...
