I think its official, my 99 750 has been at my local shop for 4 weeks now...
First I was waiting for a $3.12 gasket from Italy (why didn't they just cut them from gasket paper?!). Now, having had the carbs rebuilt and jetted, I'm told I need a set of pulsery coils...which they "never see these wear out"....Nobody seems to have them...I'm told Ducati no longer makes them....
uhm....HELP?

Buy two of them and find a new dealer.
DAMN! And even with the USD being worth exactly make the beast with two backsall, they are quite a bit cheaper than what my dealer was saying they would cost "if" they can find them.....
CHEERS!
Yeah, they don't wear out. But they sure do fail!!
ignitech also sell them.
i've been told they have been on backorder for a long time. i had a guy who's bike was elsewhere ask me if i could find some ducati ones. they were backorder locally, so i emailed ducati seattle, who said they'd had them on backorder for some time with no delivery in sight, and also that they didn't ship out of usa, which was fair enough. maybe now they're officially nla?
the silent hektik kit for the carbd 2vs come with one, gives you a reason to get the super-upgraded ignition! [thumbsup]
