Well dug this thug out this morning, hasn't seen the light of day since spring 2018. Time to freshen her up. I will try to keep it just that, but last time I tried that is didn't stay that way.
Anywho;
As is sits, 95 frame, 2001 900ssie motor, air box delete, power commander, marchesini wheels, gecko racing rear sets, GPR exhaust.
Stay tuned kids, this could get interesting. But hopefully not. As they say, “hope is undiscovered disappointment “

Love the muffler hangar.
Need a good source for top end and cylinder base gasket
Not sure, but I'd probably start my search with the forum sponsors.

Based on a google search while on the throne, it appears you can re-use the base gaskets and use Ducatibond 1215 or Threebond 1184 (cheaper and can be found in parts stores).

Interesting
, the motor has about 7k on it and vert cylinder leaks pretty bad. I will try to hunt down the sealer
Still not a fan of re using gaskets of any kind
Thanks again.

Valve cover gaskets can be re-used, as well. They'll eventually need to be replaced, but a base gasket is more of a spacer than anything. It can be re-used indefinitely if sealed properly.
Yes, the valve cover gaskets are metal as well
Read this thread:
http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=23736.0
Yes, the base gasket is often reused and will probably work unless badly bent, folded or otherwise mutilated. Because of my overcautious nature I would, unless ridiculously expensive or unobtainable would probably replace it. They are not that expensive and you can get them from a dealer. You can look here, but strangely enough they don't list an '01 900SS

That's the issue I'm running into, an 01 ss ie isn't listed. Also parusing through the inter web, seems to be an issue with 00-01 2v and s4
I have a new set from a 96, going to see if they fit
Make sure they're the same thickness, or you'll change the squish.

Yes
The 2001 900SS did though. I think the original gasket was modified due to those leaks. Stock gasket is 4mm.
IIRC, an o-ring was added to the oil return hole to stop the leaks. I don't remember if there was a recess machined into the cylinder, or the cases.
Nick might.
I've read here either ball bearing or set screw
And then comes that moment.......... should I.............

Should you...put tires on? I'd say yes. Yes to doing it.
'00 900SS had an O-ring, '01 did not, pretty sure all models went without it starting around then.
There's a pocket machined in the cases for the O-ring on bikes that had them.
I think the elimination of it was a cost saving driven decision.
'00 900SS - 78610471A - with oring
'01 900SS - 78610601A -NO oring
'02 SS - 78610682A -NO oring
Base 'gasket' is in reality a shim, sealing is achieved with Threebond sealer or similar.
One can eliminate it entirely if needed to get proper squish.
Valve cover gaskets that are the 'rubber' coated steel can be cleaned and re-used many times.
No sealer necessary.
I trash all fiber/paper valve cover gaskets I find, and replace with the rubber coated steel.

Any outstanding opinions on clutch slave cylinders, stock one is leaking and want to do better
I like stock clutch slaves.
+1.
Unless you want to reduce effort stock is fine and can be rebuilt easily as long as the metal is good on the older slaves.
If you want reduced pull you might run into clutch drag problems since travel is reduced. I was a Yoyodyne fan, but he no longer manufactures them. Maybe this one?
https://monsterparts.com/products/oberon-clutch-slave-cylinder?_pos=1&_sid=6cc784c2f&_ss=r
I will look for rebuild kit, but it's 20 yrs old. Aluminum fatigue might be a factor. Don't want to reduce effort, but I'm not running stock clutch springs
Yup,
That kind of fun today

Aren't 2000-2002 900 engines fuel injected? If so, it has better cams.
This is a 2001 900 ss ie motor, I should jus be able to swap cam right

1st thing I did was to check all geometry
[thumbsup]
The big changes to oil passages were at the barrel/crankcase interface. I couldn't remember for sure about the barrel to heads. The old motors had oil cooling galleries in the barrels and not just oil drainage. Pretty cool uh?

No major changes till 02, big change from a 95 to an 2000 was eliminating the oil lines on the barrels. All interior oil passages, valving, cam dimensions and other ports are the same. I've been wanting to try this for a couple yrs, just happened to raid shed and there they were, rebuilt and ready to go. And if it blows up, I was wrong, lol
The Dakar Elefants enjoyed the oil cooled barrels. Oilways circled the barrels on the way down. Similar to Suzuki's air/oil cooled system.
Those ie cams are useful. Have prescribed them for a very hi comp carbed 944 which needed more cam to actually turn over! It relieved the cranking pressure and gave a useful bump in peak power too. The bike also ran smoother with them, so its not just the efi alone that makes em smoother imo.
Do you have a 750 to try the 900 cams with?
No I do t know what a 750 is, lol

Any opinions on JE pistons,high compression, can of worms is open, do I need to do anything on a 900ssie motor on timing adjust, etc
Found a set really cheap. Please share your horro story, and save me from myself
Great bang for buck hi comp forged piston and are an excellent performance mod in my limited experience.
Have only dealt with four sets of the J&E brand (3 × 904, 1 × 944), but no issues except with the carbed motors.
The valve pockets appear deep for clearance when you check them. Interesting what your squish clearance will be with the older heads on the newer motor.
You get another, faster bike by waking up the compression with these motors.
J&E give around 11:1 claimed compression requiring premium fuel.
The extra comp broke engine studs in the older 900 motors, but the 900ie has the revised, stronger studs. (Black studs good, shiny studs bad).
Older carbed 900's needed ignition tuning, but the 900ie has a nicer curve (or should I say it has a curve and not a cheap step).
I read somewhere once that the off the shelf J&E was a smidge looser or tighter in some years barrels due to very slight variations from the factory, but have only heard/read it once.
Have not heard piston slap yet with the J&E brand.
We put them in my brother's M900Sie and it really works well with the capacity and cams. With stock compression I found his bike underwhelming. It seemed there was too much cam for the stock comp or not enough comp for the big cam. With higher comp the 900ie is now my favorite 900.
Thanks, squish on heads is identical
Figured why not, full set for 260 us
Bikes apart, and with about 6lbs of rotating mass gone, could be fun, lol
The pistons JE are of good quality, I have mounted on several engines and nothing to say to date.
By cons for mounting control that the squish is at least 1.1mm because they compress very strong (between 11.5 / 1 and 11.9 / 1 for those I have mounted).
For the squish valves / piston this goes without problem.
Then you will have to inject a new map into your calculator (I can provide it to you if you need it).
And after enjoy [beer]

Watch that bottom one stays put on reassembly. The older cases have it just sit there too. Luckily they are cooked on just nice.

My worst fear. [bang] You deserve a beer after this one.
With my fat fingers, I have rags around the rods and cases. I've dropped a few, but the rags caught 'em. Clearly you usually dont drop them. Be grateful you dont have to remove a broken cylinder stud, broken flush to the case, a result of bad advice ("that year had good studs"). Sure.
My sources allege this is the one you need:

Unless, of course, you decide not to go into the engine and look for it.
Turn the engine upside down and shake it.
The larger o-ring is 88641321A. The smaller o-ring was always 938232037, doesn't appear to have changed to an 8864xxxx number as yet. I have 88640371A listed as the later primary drive cover one, but I'd have to look at it next to the others to see how it varies. Those 3 numbers are all it could be. 88641321A was 938270114 and that was the change when they enlarged oil holes with the 996 engines in 1997 or so.
If it has the large oil pump outlet you can usually see a mismatch in the size of the outlet and the case inlet. I get a shallow taper sort of countersink bit and open the inlet in the cases up to the size of the o-ring ID. There is a steel insert in the aluminum there. But it makes a mess so that's best a "before you clean it" thing.
That era saw a few variations that didn't always follow parts diagrams, esp in the big block 2V as the small block 2V and 4V mods trickled down / up. They made changes to the oiling system and moved the pressure relief valve into the pump cover and fitted a drilled screw from the LH side to supply oil into the LH case, but that happened earlier in 900 than the parts catalogues showed as I recall. You just need to be a bit flexible, but experience helps a lot there.
Thanks orange, shook it, rolled it. It was stuck to the 3bond, all over now

The first o ring part number you gave it the small one, I have that, need the larger one in the rear
Diagram shows both same, both not same

Those cases are 2001 - large oil pick up screen with separate cap. I would have expected there'd be a centre o-ring between them, but it is what it is.
Using the "slide over a drill bit" ID sizing method:
938232037 - 9 x 1.8mm
88641321A - 11 x 1.8mm
88640371A - 14 x 1.8mm
Just out of curiosity, what's the first 4 digits of the engine number, like "RA4Y" ?
I usually put a drop of blue loctite on the studs and a very gentle tighten. Not for any real reason, but it stops them going anywhere.
The idea with a stud is that it gives a sacrificial thread section that is easily replaceable, unlike the thread in the cases. As long as it's not moving in the cases when you load it I think it's fine. But I'd not really have any issue with anti seize and hand tight either.
Any other learned opinions / experience on it?
Since those are aftermarket studs, mock one up to check the installed height prior to loctite.

I found the APE studs a bit tall meaning I fitted the top nuts with the head not quite home to the barrel .

Stamped on side of oil sump,
Or on heads
Yes, but there is no such thing as a 2001 900ssie
So the only parts diagram is 2000

That's the starter mounting flange area, yes?
If so, the other side is behind the starter idler gear, so only the alternator cover.
I'd clean it up and JB weld it inside and out.

It's actually on the case, not the flange. Other side is inside case. Have a micro camera I will get from the shop on Monday to see if it's all the way through

There's a 'well' on the other side of that crack, where one of the M6 case bolts goes into.
An earlier 900 case I have here the 'well' is ~10.8mm diameter, any JB weld in there just needs to be a hair bigger than the 10mm diameter head of the M6 bolt.
Or you could butter up an aluminum slug ~10mm OD, 6.5mm ID and maybe 12mm long with JB, butter up the 'well' inside, and use a slightly longer bolt. Still JB the outside too. There's no oil pressure there, it's just sitting in oil.

Tanks,
I'll jb weld it, and see how it does, if it continues I will flash tig it
If you can TIG it, do that first.
Once it's JB'd, I don't think you can get it clean enough to TIG.
Funny, I workin my shop all day to make your sh#t, then I come home to my neglected bike

So today kids, since it's another fine day in the zombie apocalypse we a cruising right through stuff. On to the forks
Tearing these puppies down. Haven't seen road or the light of day since 2015. And 21k miles to boot
Tools needed
32mm 6 point socket, 19mm 6 point socket
3/8 drive
And my trusty 1/2 plug in (as Speeddog puts it, undefeated) impact to loosen up the top cap without wrestling with it
And my trust bike stand, aka fork vise
I'm replacing guts with Andreani misano cartridge kit. Comes with everything

1st, lock it in, then remove 19mm cartridge bolt on the bottom of fork tube. Dat bi#ch is it there so prepare for a fight, but be nice to it, you need it. Remove slowly and make sure u have a bucket underneath ya. Pull out and drain fork
Mmmmmm, the good stuff.

After some research and comparing between race tec re valving, which uses old style internals, and Ohlins which uses all my money. Andreani was a good option, replacing everything inside to updated parts. And it was the most cost effective as well.
Good to know. Cheers. [thumbsup]

I'm sure I can find somewhere, the ones on there are barley legible
Aside from the frame, there isn't anything left to match up on there anyway.

Real question: Do you NEED to keep the stickers? Isn't the VIN stamped in the frame? I took the stickers off my last Monster and would take them off my current one as well.
Vin is stamped, I usually remove them as well. The info no longer applies. Not a monster motor, front and rear suspension is no longer stock, motor is no longer stock, electronics, brakes, controls are no longer stock either. For customers I put them back if it's a custom job vs heavily modded
Thank god for the geisers of old school hot rodding

The pistons JE are of good quality, I have mounted on several engines and nothing to say to date.
By cons for mounting control that the squish is at least 1.1mm because they compress very strong (between 11.5 / 1 and 11.9 / 1 for those I have mounted).
For the squish valves / piston this goes without problem.
Then you will have to inject a new map into your calculator (I can provide it to you if you need it).

First shot they do look gaudy, but from the side pick up the cambelt covers. Not sure about the front shot. Problem is the rider's view, but will mirrors and controls mitigate it?

Where I'm at now;
Instead of rebuilding the wheel, I'm modifying (chopping up) an air box to get battery tray and Ecuador mount.
Trimming wire harness, removed all lighting from stock harness. Using all led, pourpose built V2 box is being used, no additional relays or fuses needed.
I would like to find some one who can flash my ecu due to increased compression, and airbox delete
Ran the PC before without airbox, tried to tune best possible by removing what hesitation I could, the carbon build up on a 7k motor was immense. And I don't want to go the other direction and burn a hole in my new pistons
And agin, waiting on bits and pieces. My last gear shaft seal and oil cooler washers showed, so I get to put oil in it now
If all goes well, should be able to start it up next week, yay

If the PO ran high test in the stock motor, that could account for some of the carbon.
High compression 2V motors definitely require more octane.
No idea who's doing reflashes on the Marelli ecuadors... ;D
It was my bike, 93 octane when I could, no less then 91
Power commander doesn't even list the bike anymore as far as resetting the unit.
Oh the joy of old junk, lol
What is the Sotheby's purpose built V2 box you mention?
Lighting control module
For led turn signals, headlight dimming, on off/start, and micro switch control
Running lights and brake lights will be inline fuses

That Powercommander can be dyno tuned to your bikes pipes, pod filters and stacks. I wonder if any dynos are open in your area? Have you checked out the Dynojet PC map library? You can dowload a map and transfer it to your PCIII if it is a USB version.
Are those pods the Beast kit?

That's why the heavy carbon.
Bruce Meyers, who knows more about Ducati's than most, always recommended 87 for low compression 2V motors for that exact reason.

Hope the 11:5 burn 93 better, I like combustion, not explosion
I call it spell inject at this point
The 900ie ignition curve seems more tolerant of hi comp but run your 93 MON. No maps for a 2000 model? The pods (especially small ones) without velocity stacks under them don't flow that well, so not as lean as kits like Corse Dynamics, Beast, Beast R, WASP, Ducshop, etc. With little pods clamped on the throttle bodies you might just have to play with trim or used a canned map for a 2000 model.
Starting should be without too much strain as the hot ie cams bleed off some cranking pressure.

At 11.5:1 93 is the correct choice. You're lucky it's EFI. The carbies get really difficult to tune. Where are you having your ecu mapped?

Pinion, what ECU are you using? Did it come with the motor and loom or a Monster ECU? I've lost track. ;D
Lol
Engine, fuel delivery and ecu are 2001 900 ss ie
Should be Marelli a 1.5 ECU. Used on 900ie Monster and Supersport til the change in 02 to the 5.9 ECU. That should open up a few map options across those models I guess.
I see that many maps in the Powercommander library are now deleted. Shame. The website has changed a lot.

I'm think of the carby ;D, oops
My carby has no ecu or rev limiter.
After 8K, all you're making is noise. ;D
2000 Monster 900 78 hp @ 6750 rpm
1999 Monster 900 74. HP @ 7000 RPM
2000 Supersport 80. HP @ 7000 RPM
Rumor has it the carbys had a 9K red line, Ive never seen that as an official Ducati spec. As Nate said, over 8K is pointless.
I believe the difference between the Monster and Supersport is cams.
No carb rev limiter. Just loss of power.
900 injected cams are the same between M & SS.
ECU's are different though. Something about the harness pin-outs is different M to SS, and oddly '99 SS is different than '00-'02 SS bikes. Another pin-out difference.
NOTE: almost all Ducati's got the immobilizer in '02. The SS did not until 2003.

Correct
Main difference is injectors, gear box ratio and some mild mapping in ecu
If I found a DP ecu,I could get rid of the pc, also Guzzdiag has been suggested with tune pro to rewrite myself
I have a nos ecu coming, so I have 1 to mess with
This makes me want to get a bunch of cheap used stuff to do an EFI conversion. I'm not going to, this is just an inspiring thread, you work a lot faster than me [roll]

This makes me want to get a bunch of cheap used stuff to do an EFI conversion. I'm not going to, this is just an inspiring thread, you work a lot faster than me [roll]
EFI throttle bodies will not fit a carbureted frame. I know. I did it. The tube which runs side to side (holds back of the air box) is straight on a carbed bike and curved on an injected bike. If you can change the tube, change the wiring and change the tank, it can be done.

Pay close attention to the man behind the curtain. ;D
Took this 95 carby and 2001 Efi
Although it was a complete motor swap
This thread is it's 3rd life

And made this, no frame mods

I know, I'm such a tool
That version was my favourite actually.

Anyone know where I can locate a color wiring diagram for 2001 M900sie ie
All the ones online, I can't zoom
For that matter a service manual as well, I have a parts manual
Thanks

Not as complete as a factory manual, but it should get you through.

Perfect
Ok sports fans, now for the fire up
Question for the gods, coils. Any recommendations on the high compression pistons or in general
Stock EFI coils ain't bad from all reports.
Also, there is no aftermarket ignition either
Both Dynatek and Nology make something with the right ohms (just have to research it carefully), but thankfully it's unnecessary. CCW site says the Exactfit coils also suit your bike, but not the 900SSie, so worth checking with Chris on that to be sure. Id put the money towards porting, a valve job or dyno tuning that PCIII to perfection (and the day trip to get there).

Agree with the tuning, porting an polishing next year, bikes already to gather, not taking apart agin, lol
Yeah fair enough, your summer's coming, ours is gone.
Almost there, multimeter craped out, so I guess I will start switch, lights and dash harness

1st rough out of dash, too much empty space. Not anything impressive at all, just took out the jigsaw and effed around
Brain fart
More like 3rd grade shop class
