A chat/bs/what have you thread for anything and everything related to the original first gen air cooled HM.
Replace with OEM. I know it sounds stupid to pay for the same fuses you can get at a gas station than at the dealer but trust me, i've gone through a handful of cheap fuses and they dont quite work the same.I need to buy some replacement fuses... any suggestions?
This video helped me with my first oil change: Ducati Monster 696 First Oil Change + Screen Cleaning - YouTubeHey guys, anyone have a link to an oil-change thread for the gen 1 Hyper? I need to do my first and I need the correct Filter Wrench size, capacity etc.
Shop manual for the '08 says do belts at 12,000km or 2yrs, valves at 12,000km. That's the schedule I'm sticking with.Seems to be varying advice on this ranging from belts at 12,000kms or 2 years old to some stating 24,000kms and 4 years. I'm hearing the same km intervals on valve clearances too.
Hard to beat the monstrous torque right off the bottom. Heck, you can be in too high of a gear pulling out of a corner sometimes and the 1100 doesn't even think twice.I was chatting with one of the lads on the uk forum who had an 1100s, got rid of it and happened to be out riding with someone who owns an 821sp and another lad who was on a dorso 750. He said they were both comparable and felt that he had to "ring the neck of the 821 to get it to go" then had a go on the dorso and had the same experience. Prior to that he was looking for an 821 but is getting another 1100.
