...by the Ducati parts departments to the tune of £156.00!!!!

Had to order a new left hand fan motor for my S4Rs as the original one has developed an internal short that blew the fuse every time it cut in.

I appreciate that there will be people on this forum that will have one lying around and up for sale, but it was one of those "I need it quickly" situations, but my advice to them would be to hold on to it.

Outrageous! :)

Ducati prices are odd.

Sometimes bits are so cheap, then others cost an arm and a leg.

The one that made me laugh on ebay is a set of the plastic bar ends for £14, yet they are about 70p each from Ducati, bet people still buy them though.

Cheers
Stuart

Know how you feel, just had to fork out £60 for a fuel level sensor for the Monnie 900 which is basically a make/break mechanical switch, so you're not alone! :Furious:

soz for hyjacking the thread but I just have to tell a7avenger I love that Kwak in your avatar. I had one looked just like it, though mine was the 250.
