mine is the older tyep oil cooler, and it has plugs on the inlet and outlet. I just made a banjo type fitting for it. You can see better in the pic below. I have a newer cooler, but thats the main reason I kept this one.

Do you get enough ground thru the mounts to work that pressure switch? Seems the rubber mounts would make it hard. I forget if the switch is on/off or off/on, I think it's off/on. If that's the case, then a lack of ground means you wouldn't get any warning.

Also, I'm still having drama's starting it. It's not bad, but it still gets caught up at the top of compression. So thats why I'm looking at building a 4 pole starter to give it a bit more boot! http://www.ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=50076.0

First off, awesome build. Just read all 12 pages of this in one sitting. bow down

As for the hard starting issue, are you still using a basically stock wiring harness?

If so, then I'm guessing that's at least part of your problem. Word is that upgrading your starter and ground cable to larger diameter wire/better connections helps solve this problem. My plan is to scavenge a set of car battery cables and fab up an appropriate set of connections for the moto. Dolph

Also, as I'm sure you've figured out by now, the rectifier issue is pretty common on Ducs. Just a crap design that will eventually go bad. Mine crapped out about a month ago. Tongue

But again, awesome build. waytogo

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

works ok... I think the grounding comes through the wire braiding of the hoses

thanks..

I had the larger diameter cable for the earth and it was still hard to start. So I fitted the positive from the solenoid to starter and its a lot better, but still not as good as I'd like it.
So, I built a 4 pole starter-- http://www.ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=50076.0
I still havn't fitted it so I dont know if its 'the be all to end all' but when I do I'll update the thread.

yeah been through a few rectifiers... Sad

Sorry about the lack of detail
I brought the bike and it had 69000 (currently it has 70500km) and it has been looked after
have you heard of other Ducatis and if they were running ok say about 130000 km
My major concern is the high milage but it seems to be going well
Heres a strange one can a Dievel rear shock fit on the back of a M900 1994 monster
thankyou

Sorry Bertie...

My Details comments were directed to the original poster of this thread & not you.

You might get a more detailed response by PM'ing the original poster & you may get more responses to your questions if you start your own thread...

No idea on a Diavel shock's alternate fitments...

cant help myself... always finding something to do! Grin

-About 6 months I fitted BST wheels! I'm sure I don't have to tell you all how good these things are...
-Had the ohlins forks stripped of anodizing and polished to remove the road rash, then re-anodized. came up beautiful! photo's don't do justice.
- had front guard and rear cowl repainted to expose the carbon fibre.

-Finally finished the exhaust, found the power that the Quat D robbed.

Yes, Dyno will be soon!
