Headlight
Ducati Indiana 650 1986/87
Folks
I'm looking for a headlight that goes left on hi-beam. These
would have been fitted to bikes in the UK, Australia and NZ (ie: countries
that drive on the left side of the road). Hopefully these are available
at a resonable cost somewhere.......... Thanks
for any assistance

HELP PLEASE!
Ducati 748S
Hello,
My Ducati 748 has been in storage while I finished my Naval service
overseas. It's only seen about a 100 miles in the Sun over the last 3 years
so I decided to send it to the shop to have have brakes and fluids changed
and have the tires checked out as well. Just a basic road safety check-up.
Then I get "the call." While checking out my bike the mechanic
dropped the entire tail section of my bike scratching the paint and cracking
the fairing somehow to a point beyond repair! They have told me they will
pay to "fix" my bike but then they got worried when they realized I have
a custom "Senna" paintjob that was done when I bought the bike new in Naples,
Italy.
The last message I got from the dealership was that they were
gonna have to order the part from Bologna and then send it out to see if
they can find someone who can match the paint. So far they have been pretty
nice to me and I have somehow managed not to blow my cool over the damage
to my baby.
I guess my question for you is this.. What are they obligated
to do? I don't wanna screw them over but I don't want to be taken advantage
of by being so "understanding" either.
Respectfully,

Ducati 750 Paso Starter Removal
750 Paso
What holds the starter in place. have found one external screw at front
of timing (LHS) housing. Do I need to go inside this housing for more screws?
AUS Adelaide
Assuming the Pantah has the same setup, this
page shows that the starter motor is secured by three screws: http://pantah.5starl.com/disassembly/starter/

Restarting after storage
1987 Ducati Paso 750cc
Hello I have a 1987 Ducati Paso 750cc been parked for a long time might
have oil leak otherwise seems fine. Any ideas on a restart procedure
on this bike.
Honolulu Hi.
Drain fuel from tank and carby bowl, add fresh
fuel. Recharge or replace battery. Remove plugs and add a teaspoon of penetrating
oil to each cylinder. Wind the engine over a half-dozen times no choke
no throttle ignition off, but with fuel on.
Ignition on, choke, tiny bit of throttle, hit the starter.
If no joy after 30 seconds, stop. Don't just keep winding it over or you'll
cook the starter.
Try a bit of Aerostart or some other starting gas - spray
it into the airbox, not too much. This time, use no choke or half choke.
If still no joy, check spark, fuel supply and compression.

pantah engine-head+barrell change over
ducati-indianas / cagiva.
hello. can 900cc.pantah [elephant]-barrells be put on a 750cc.pantah-engine.
what heads can be used, is the stroke the same. what mods would need done
if any. 1989 eng.thanks.tommy.
n.ireland
hello i have 3 duc / cagiva indiana's 2 X650cc.
1 X 750cc. also a spare frame that i am going to do a special with.
i am selling off 2 of these [ house-sale]. [ is there a 900cc
pantah-eng. ] i thought i seen one in an elephant or
an alazzurra. can i fit the barrells and heads of one
off these engines onto my 750cc. or is it too much hassle. or can
900cc monster barrells and heads be used. i am thinking of triking
the spare-frame and fitting a 900cc. carb monster engine. any help
would be greatly appreciated. tommy.
I believe the engine mounts are different between
the 750 and 900 engines, and the 900 barrells have a larger stud spacing
than the 750 and hence won't fit. Ed.

tommynortonntlworld
i have 3 duc. indiana's. they have the same square frame
as some of the elephants, only twin rear shocks. they
were only made from 1987-1990, and have the pantah 650+750cc. engines.
i am shifting house so i need to sell of 1 or 2 of them to give me room.
i have a spare frame that i am going to put a twin disc front-end in.
if i can find out which square framed elephant had the twin -disc. i will
use there yokes. i have a great pair of 38mm duc-forks. twin-disc,
so i am hoping the elephant yokes are 38 or even 40mm. i know the
allazzura-has a twin-disc front end, but they and are 35mm, the later one's
even has the same-wheels as mine. but the bottom yoke
is the problem i need the yoke stem to take a 25mm.bore bearing.//
not the 26mm than is on my GT-twin-yokes that i have . the
head -stock on the square-frame elephant will be the same length
as mine, but the alazzura head stock is 6mm. shorter.
at the end of the day i want to put in a twin-disc front end, [ duc-cagiva
if possible. any help would be greatly appreciated. any
help would be greatly-appreciated. thanks-tommy.

Ducati Forks
these are the forks i hope to use. they are 38mm.
the ones in the indys are 40mm, but only single-disc. you would probably
know more about forks etc. than me. thanks-tommy.
These forks are almost certainly from a Ducati
750 Sport or GT of 1973 vintage. They will accept Lockheed, Scarab or special
Brembo calipers. I think they are made by Ceriani. They're fairly primitive
compared to the forks fitted standard to the Indiana, and are probably
worth a good deal to a collector.
...........
thanks for taking the time to help. do these 750 sport-forks
work -well. a lot of people have took interest in them
when i showed them. i take it there hard to get hold of, they
are in great cond that's one of the reasons i want to use them.
is it the forks that would be worth a few bob to the right person, or
the calipers. the c. to c. caliper-holes on the sport-slider
would be 88mm. would calipers be hard to get. the
rear indy caliper is 84mm c. to c. [ i thought i was lucky there.
but maybe 4pot would be better] if i could pick up a forks slider
/ sock, but a right hand side- the same pattern as the indy 40mm.
with twin disc mounts. that would be very- handy. the indy-slider has the
cagiva elephant stamped on the bottom near the axle holes, i am still hoping
that elephant forks might work out. the stanchions- are 3"
shorter on the 750.sport-forks, but i will get away with it as i have lowered
the front 30mm anyway. and the indy frame still sits approx
200mm. high-- and that's with her lowerer 30mm. i want her
low like a streetfighter. she is a high bike, so i should get away with
it. if i am stuck and shop around i could pick up a top-yoke that
[ elbows ] drops down. i will put a 900cc. monster engine in her, [ carb-model
] . st2 duc- rear-hugger fits these swinging-arms well. probably
red./ yellow. well thanks again for letting me bend your ear.
where abouts are you usa. thanks tommy.
As I said, those forks are very old technology,
and cannot be expected to work anywhere
near as well as modern forks, Tommy. As well as the bikes
previously mentioned, they are
also fitted to Greenframe SS's, so that may give you
a clue as to what they're worth.
Original calipers of the types mentioned will not be
easy to come by or cheap, unless you
get really lucky. Strongly recommend selling the leading
axle forks and getting something closer to the originals. And if you're
serious about turning the bike into a real motorcycle, why not just sell
the Indianas and replace them with the bike I personally think is the
best road bike ever made - a Monster. :)
