Worse time to discover you bought the wrong parts

[LeFauxTard]

I was very impressed by how easy it was to take the 15T front sprocket off my Hyper. It was time to put the new 14T one in when it hit me like a brick.
Oh that sinking feeling...
Doh! Looks like I bought the wrong DP 14T sprocket. No holes in this sprocket.


The one on the left is the stock 15T and the one on the right is the DP 14T.

Even though the Ducati web site says:
code 96824701B Front sprocket 7mm (525) - T14

Am I missing something here?

I think if I was in your place, sprocket off and needing to order another part, I might put one of those case savers on.

Case saver? One of those plate thingies that protects the case from the chain? Any recommendations?

[el tardo]

this is the part number you need --JTF740.14

and this guy has a brand new one in packaging for sale for cheap.he was going to put it on and then totaled his 796 and bought a 1100 hyper

his name is tom and a good friend I'm sure he will make you a good deal

I have had exactly the same problem, ended up with another brand then Duc.

So does that mean that Ducati Performance does NOT make a 14T sprocket that accomodates a fastening plate (like the one on my stock HM796)???

The shop told me that they do not sell it aftermarket, apparently they have it to be installed on new bikes.
I have now got one with from JT with the same number that el tardo gave.

Thanks but I need it for this weekend and I found an AFAM one at my local dealer.

What torque value did you use on the 2 screws that hold the sprocket?
Did you use thread lock?

Thanks
