Don't break/strip stuff  Risotto must constantly be stirred.

I just pulled mine off last weekend. Like many Ducati disassembly projects, there will be a few points where you scratch your head and go "huh?" A few places where you have to pull things apart only in a certain sequence. Overall, it's not too tough. The only part that had me stuck a bit was trying to remove the top bolts that attach the subframe to the frame. The nut on the inside is difficult to access with an open-ended wrench, and the bolt extends well beyond that nut into a rubber spacer. Be patient, and you'll get there eventually...

Like bwhip said, take your time.I think you said you have a Termi too.2-1 or 2-2, because that changes a couple of things too. If you start to loosen a bolt and it seems to get tight, stop. I remember a couple of places where a bolt is run though a captured nut in the sub-frame then an additional nut is used to hold another part in place.Good luck, Merry Christmas, and basmati doesn't have nearly enough starch content for a proper risotto.
