V4 Pikes Peak

Is that what the issue is ?

 

Thanks for the link. I adjusted mine and it has made a big difference; not perfect , but the gaps are hardly noticeable

 

No idea. I’m waiting for an update from my dealer.

 

Apparently mine is getting a new tank cover next week.

 

Looks amazing and something I have done on any vehicle.

I think he should have pushed it in the workshop though, not rode it - was 12 yards FFS

 

Was in Ducati Glasgow today and they has 8 new multistrada's ( 4 pikespeak's) and all of them had the tank covers misaligned . Had I visited the store before I went to the trouble of adjusting mine; I'd probably would have left it. Although they did commend me on a job well done. The link from the North American dealer may be more appropriate due the the hotter weather.

 

Can anybody tell me the torque setting for the rear wheel is please on the PP.

 

Think it’s 280 Nm

 

The 1260 models with SSSA are documented at 230nm for the rear wheel nut. 280 sounds high!

 

Twin Swing Arm - 180NM I believe

 

That seems high I’m tending to lean towards 230 nm but I can’t find the actual figure anywhere,

 

I have seen 180nm for a double sided swing arm I would have thought it would be higher for a single.

 

@nelly would be your man. He explained it somewhere else on this hallowed site quite recently.

 

Up the Furka.

 

Sorry - the PP with Single swing are should be 230 or 240NM - sorry for confusion.

 

Has anyone had any oil usage on their PP? I had none to start with, but as the miles have worn on (current at almost 4000), I'm noticing oil usage. Nothing huge, but definitely something. I just hope it doesn't keep increasing with miles (my 1260 seemed to, up to a point)

 

4000 miles on mine now and it hasn't used a drop.

 

I already have 10.000 km and it has barely dropped 2 mm from the maximum since the 1,000 km review. This week I will recharge oil to see how much volume those 2 mm are to see how much it has spent.

 

Just over 5k in and zero oil usage so far, making a nice change not to have to carry a ltr of oil on tours, I'd better not let on though, she'll think there's room for another pair of shoes
