It looks pretty cool all stripped down, especially without the rear half of the frame ____________________ Bikes : 2006 CBR125R - 2004 Monster 620ie - 2004 ZX-6R B1H - 2005 Monster S2R 800 - 2011 Street Triple - 2009 Streetfighter 1098 - 2014 ZX-6R 636

okie dokie... That swingarm bolt which goes through the frame,swingarm and the engine is a right cnut !
Had help from my wonderful assistant today mr sickpup, who even with his "hammer the fuck out of it" skills couldnt free it...
So all i could manage today was strip more little bits off, random "this looks shit" photos and get the pupski to have a look at the engine to see what needs doing to it.
Belts deffo need changing, was going to do them anyway when the engine was out...
pup noticed some bearing problems with the belt adjuster (think that was the one), so needs new bearings...
Also topic of todays chats were.... powder coat or not to powder coat ? Ducati sprayed the original bronze colour, but i think the later ducatis are powder coated...
Due to money and generally more potch, i think spraying will be the way to go to keep costs down... (not black rattle tin job or tin of hammerite )
Also pup keeps putting ideas in my head of the 955 piston kit... next year
Pics to follow of the oily bits.. ____________________ Ducati 916,white framed corse replica https://www.bikechatforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=239309

Video for mr sick pup.... we need a long shaft and to bang it real hard
Think i payed about £3.5 or £4k for it about 2 years ago.... lozzy should remember... she took me pillion for the first time up to monmouth to pick it up...
They seem to hover around the £3k-£4k mark these days.... 996 and the 998 go for about £6k-£7k...
Foggy reps seen go for at least £9k-£12k on ebay
748s go for £2k-£3.5k....
Those prices differ if your talking s,sps,sp,r versions... so many different prices,so many different versions,different mileage,conditions etc... ____________________ Ducati 916,white framed corse replica https://www.bikechatforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=239309

Well pup knows that i fell in love with his hammer... i liked the way it felt in my hand, so hard and heavy which give a reassuring thump when ever i hit it...
.... So today i bought my own dead blow hammer... new favourite tool ! (what did you think i ment ) Hitting stuff has never been so much fun !!!
Got home from work to have another go at getting this blasted swing arm bolt out with a combo 14mill allen key socket on a huge breaker bar on one end while banging the feck out of the other side with a long shaft... lol...
Swing arm bolt does now turn better, its just getting the damn thing out... After googling and youtubing more videos i think i know where im going wrong...another attempt tmrw after work... ____________________ Ducati 916,white framed corse replica https://www.bikechatforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=239309

I cant make up my mind; whether this is:-
a) Vilification of all those Ducatisti who do no more than 300 miles a year, on sunny Bank-Holidays, riding between heated garages and well attended posing places...
b) A Precedent to Decry thier timidity
c) An example that demonstrates well, why the 'sensible' all weather rider, picks a Honda VFR! ____________________ My Webby'Tef's-tQ, loads of stuff about my bikes, my Land-Rovers, and the stuff I do with them!

I cant justify spending £4k on a bike only to use it when its sunny...
Still having shit getting that bolt out... it has moved slightly, but its free to rotate but seems to bind on the bushes for the swing arm...
More brute force needed, but time i get home in the night its too dark to see out side...stroll on saturday morning  ____________________ Ducati 916,white framed corse replica https://www.bikechatforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=239309
