If I give you £90 for that Ctek charger, you’re half way to a new set of D-zeus fasteners... Interested? I’m not sure about those screen bolts you have chosen. They don’t look right to me. Mine had T7 Torx bolts that were made of monkey metal
FYI, I got new fairing screen bolts in s/steel from Pro-Bolt. Guess what? The originals were all seized in place and the special tool Ducati supply in the tool kit to remove them just stripped the piddling little torx head. I cut them all off with the Dremel - was well versed in such matters after Sprocketgate. The replacement Dzus I got came from CTMoto, genuine zinc plated& machined Dzus. I’ll get a photo close up to show you.
Mine came out easily Just saying. Get some Owatrol Transyl and apply it to both ends of the pivot bolt and to the openings/slits in the rear engine casing through which the bolt passes. Do this daily for about 3 weeks it should work. I highly recommend this product as a penetrating oil.
Help. Are these the “right” ones for the 748r? I know they are for the 916 but can anyone who know for sure confirm? (But like phone a friend - no 90%s please). @final_edition ?
It’s not a close up but zoom in on the Dzus. That’s the new one, which I’m 99% certain is the same as the original one but I will check in my ‘parts bin’ tomorrow morning for you.
The 10 for sale on flea bay have 2 like this and 8 per photo. I assumed the 2are for the undertray, not the top parts of the fairing? Getting very befuddled by this now. If I am spending I need to be 100%.
The original OEM DZU fasteners for 94-97 748/916 were gold and slightly domed (1/4 turn zinc-chromate yellow) . I have a few original spares but am hanging on to them as I will no doubt lose one or more at some point. They are getting harder to find in the correct colour and shape at the moment.
Mine came as a set of 10 complete with new clips, albeit the clips aren’t zinc plated but then Imnot sure if the originals were either. edited in response to post #150 above, mine’s a 99MY
Yes, they are the right ones for a 1999MY, don't know about 2002. I checked my old ones to see earlier and they are like that, just a bit rustier
Thank you for taking the trouble Paul. Out of curiosity, do you have two if the flat heads and 8 raised profile?
It’s a bloody minefield. I am on the phone to Dealer tomorrow after checking part numbers etc. I have money in the bank now thanks to @razz so incoming!!!
EJ ive got some intel my 2002 748r has only the domed ones and in the spare parts catalogue for the 2002 MY it lists the following as the part nos for all of the fastenings including the underside 850.4.023.1A they are originally gold in colour not silver
