SPEEDO DRIVE

[loony888]

g,day all,
has anybody got an early speedo drive kicking around? it's to suit the early monster with the 17mm front axle. if you do can you measure the diameter where it sits inside the wheel? i need a new seal and it supersedes to an incorrect part (seems to be more common with older bike part supersessions from ducati these days).


thanks,
paul.

Would the 97-98 750 be around the vintage??

[loony888]

sure would, i think they use the same drive. got one you could measure for me?

[dragonworld.]

No worries!! Leave it with me and I'll have some dimensions for you tomorrow.

thanks mate!

Now lets see!!
I got the wheel out and managed to pop the seal without damaging it (Ta Daaa ) Not a dimension marking to be seen.
 Soooo using my trusty verniers it measures up to:

O/D    58mm (Also measured the I/D of the hub seal seating surface to confirm)
I/D     50mm
Width 4mm

Hope this helps.

Ooops

A quick clarification of the I/D!! Its the measurement of the surface on the speedo drive that the seal runs on and confirms the seal lip running I/D also.

Phew!!

geez mate!!!!
thanks for that, i wasn't really expecting you to pull your bike apart!!! i was sort of hoping someone had one lying around and could measure it up and save ME pulling MY bike apart!!!
again, thanks very much, it is appreciated, if you find yourself in brissie let me know and i'll buy the beers

But no dramas mate, I'll be writing this info in the back of the manual in the "specs" section for future reference.
