Hello. Sorry to resurrect an old thread but aren't the calliper bolts normal thread? Mine will not undo, they aren’t left hand thread are they? They are lefty loosy yes?
Wow!  This is old.  I still owned a Ducati or two the last time I posted on it.  Wink

What sort of wrench are you trying to use to loosen the caliper bolts?  Of course they're normal thread, there would be no reason to use a reverse thread there.  A quality wrench that doesn't flex should pop them loose.

One of my excuses for lack of Ducati ownership is that there are exactly zero dealers in the state of Idaho.  I wouldn't mind a Scrambler Desert Sled.

Got the off. Previous owner had used permanent thread lock. New bolts on order.
