guys, can someone help me with this f*****g thing ... I got used upper triple clamp, but it is missing lower pins that hold air pressure sensor. I ordered the pins but the diameter is smaller then the hole ... I was able to find old and destroyed clamp and I saw that these pins are somehow widened ... does anyone know how to set put them in place?

You can put the sensor anywhere, by the use of zip ties.

Your picture service forces me to accept privacy violations OR spend forever to deny (still just) a small part of them.

Will you consider using a service with "forum hot link"?

Ok - they are the locating pins (dowels?) for the U-bracket. Sensor is not related. If you have the correct size, it's about forceful twist, turn, push and pull.

I ordered two of them from official Ducati shop, with VIN number, and the diameter is smaller then the hole ... they seem like rolled piece of metal, so I am thinking there is a way to put them inside the hole and then spread them somehow

I mentioned the sensor pecause U backet is the one that it mounts on.

, so your second hand upper triple has a different diameter hole? I'd think there are correct diameter pins to be bought - dosn't have to be Ducati.

If you end up drilling/widening the hole.... make sure you stop half way since the rubber vibration damper is screwed down into the upper half.

Those are standard coiled spring pins. Measure the hole in  mm and head to the hardware store.

If you can't find the coiled variety a regular roll/spring pin will work.
