All done today in approx one hour.

14mm socket to undo the nuts on the swinging arm that clamp the eccentric hub
C spanner to take the slack off the chain
41mm socket to undo the left hand main nut
Off slides the sprocket carrier
15mm socket and 12mm allen key to undo the 5 retaining nuts
Lot of cleaning
White grease on all moving parts
5 new cush drives
Everything back on

Easy peasy, Ducati's are so easy to work on :yoparty:

See attached the offending Cush drive, oh dear.

Nice one, I like it when things are easy, this spannering lark isn't that hard!

Cheers,

Shandy

When doing this job, it's a good idea to center punch the edges of the cush drive bores on the inboard side of the sprocket, this will prevent the cush from backing out into the hub in the event of a failure of the cush.

I knew there was something I forgot, ok next weekend all off agin to dot point the edges. I will be changing the sprockets and chain in approx 3000 anyway but better safe than sorry.
