I was recommended one of these, among some others more expensive options, but this was the best value wrench that I found: -

Whilst I wait for all the bits to arrive I thought I'd take the covers off and have a nosy. Some of the adjuster bolts look okay but I want to change them to be on the safe side. Can someone send me in the right direction for some good replacements please?
Also I got all the marks to line up (after a few goes), is the mark on the left side of the engine supposed to line up too? |

on the left is ignition timing marks, ignore them.
all three pulley dots should line up with the relevant marks. Last edited by slob; 09-05-2020 at 07:11 PM.. |

Ah okay. A UKMOC workshop manual would be far more useful than the Ducati one!

the ducati manual is a pretty complete reference, although you do come across the odd error. you should read and properly digest the whole of the sections that relate to your task before you start.

Can anyone recommend some good replacements for the tensioner screws? Ti or stainless, basically not OE cheese. Part I'm referring to is 77210103A

I wouldn't say the Ducati ones were cheese, in fact they would be a much better replacement than S/S. That said, I found a chewed one after a Ducati mechanic had done a belt change! I replaced it with an old disc bolt.
Just to note that it is important to use the correct torque on those as they thread into a Heli-coil type insert from new so if you rip that it's not so straightforward to just Heli-coil it again I believe you have to use an oversize Wurth insert.

I plan to do the belt change later this week and some of them look a bit chewed already. Ducati ones are £6 each I think!
I got my torque wrench today so I'll be sure do them up properly. |

My inclination would be to go with stock Ducati bolts,
if you don't make sure what you do get has the same size flange as the originals, so they grip the tensioner adequately and also double check the height of the heads, they have quite a low profile. They are easy to chew up of you don't get the allen socket square on to them. |

Ordered the OEM ones for a nice £30, not in stock so won't get them until next week. There's my weekend fun gone

Belts are on but tensioning them is driving me mad! I've tried both the allen key method and the app (one that Proteam recommended) and both give different results. If I go by 99hz which exactfit recommend then they seem too loose on the Allen key test and the opposite the other way around.
I'm setting the tension with all the marks lined up and the locking pins in place (as mentioned in the manual) |

So the best I've managed is:
Horizontal - 110hz, 5mm allen key max Vertical - 100hz, no allen key fits!? As before both were done with the timing marks all lined up and the locking pins in place as per Ducati manual |
