  1. If anyone wants to loose their rattle please put it in an envelope marked......
    Oh if only it was so simple :)

  3. It saddens me to see so many dislike the rattle, its Ducati!

  4. Surely it's just a certain generation of Ducatis.

    I don't think a Ducati is any less a Ducati without the rattle.
    Bog standard Fugleys sound very quiet though - most unDucati-like.

  5. All the newer models are no less Ducati's than the older models that have been replaced....they have just grown up n out grown the need for a rattle.

  6. Yes i do , not only for the noise but for the reason it was designed that way in the first place. No contamination of the oil.

  7. Sounds like an old gas stove being dragged over cobblestones.

  10. Yes, thread is for real. I posed a question, it got responses, think that's the point of a forum

  19. Problem is that some of the best engines ducati have made have a dry clutch so you either get on board or mod it.

    Personally I like modding bikes and Ducatis are great for it so that's what I'm doing.

    However one thing I can't condone is having quiet pipes on a twin...... That's just bloody silly :)

  20. The clutch rattle is just part of the joy of owning a Ducati, if it bothered me I wouldn't have bought the bike!
