Hey team

Anyone got any brilliant ideas or hints about how to measure the closer shim on the Duke ?

:spudwhat:

A little thing that makes a fairly tricky job a mare.

Cheers

Do you have the manual ??? I'm pretty sure the instructions for doing this are in the manual....

If not, send a PM to Quasi Evil - I know for a fact that he has one as I sold it to him!!

Good luck., :headbang:

Normally - but this is the first time on the Duke - is a bit more complicated than a guzzi or a bmw - but seems doable enough

The manuals etc seem pretty vague on measuring the closer - there is a ducati tool - and I have read of people using a couple of specially engineering inserts to help measure - but at the moment ....
