Re: VTR smoking when startup

Welcome aboard :thumbup:

First off the 10W40 should be a Semi-synthetic oil, which the 20W50 oil probably isn't. If it was me I'd change it back to the correct oil, even if the 20W50 oil turns out to be semi-synth. Then take it from there if the bike is still smoking,

Re: Well you asked for another Ducati build

As this build finishes my mind turns to the next project, I have 6 months to think about it as I like to ride over the summer months...

Re: Renthal Flat bar handlebar conversion.

I had been thinking about this for a while. I noticed some flex in the Renthal Ultra Low handlebars I fitted, mainly when picking the bike from the side stand. So after a recent discussion on this with a very good friend of mine I have decided to fit a Renthal handlebar brace. It has certainly made ...

I know I've said it before, but I'm going to say it again :lol: Plusgas is one of the best for penetrating seized threads. Well done Mick :clap: :clap: Chris. Agree but a 50-50 mix of ATF & Acetone works wonders. I mixed up a ltrs worth, in a bottle*. Shake it up, it separate's out when left, &...
