Foam instrument surround - someone, somewhere, makes them - I have seen them! Who, where? C/F panels at the side of instruments - sure there is a link from the 900SL FB group but no FB access at the moment. 'Cable' between trip meter reset knob and speedo - could be a tough one this... Front subframe - will know tonight if mine will pull through or not, anybody got one for sale?
I saw the instrument beautification panels in carbon on ebay germany but haven't seen them for ages. mounting frame: DUCATI 600/750/900SS FAIRING MOUNTING FRAME | eBay search 900ss fairing and a few come up cable could be tricky but not impossible - it's only a control cable after all. ebay 900ss clocks yields results, but unfortunately you have to fork out for the whole binnacle.
Pict, I have a redundant SS speedo in my workshop, you can have it for the postage and I'm certain there is a cable on it........assuming you mean the tripmeter reset cable?
I have one used one but it seems in good condition and re-usable (actually I have two, but I might want one).......I also made a polished aluminium one, which you aren't getting........However, as yours is a 900 you have an extra hole don't you?.....You can have one of the foam ones if any good to you. I have a spare (I did have two, but one became my remote throttle stop adjuster) but I'm keeping it because: "What if mine breaks, like Pict's has".....However, a broken rev counter cable or speedo cable can be used to mend the broken trip cable.....with some force and a bit of solder.....you can even cross drill the brass bits 1mm dia and put a cross pin in there...... PS...The trip meter cable is fixed to the speedo with a tiny little grub screw which is prone to getting lost, but you can resolve this with an R Clip. PPS....I also have a complete dash and instruments....750 again, though. AL
Nog - you're on, I'll send you an email. Al - Cheers for all the tips, the trip reset cable didn't break (that I know of) it just wasn't there when I got the bike. Not a problem until now as I'm putting it back together after a rebuild.
Turns out my frame is OK (phew..) - but that one looks a good deal. I had looked on eBay before posting, seems the trick is to guess what description the seller may use :wink:
got a couple of those lying around but they are not off a ducati, got a photo? they may be able to be adapted to work
One foam dash.......www.mdinaitalia.co.uk - Instrumentfoam900SS9798 and for the trip meter, you could always make a straight 'adjuster' from a bit of old car aerial as a temporary measure......or even make a flexi one using a bit of heavy strimmer cord...... ....I may have enough bits to make one if necessary.......(that means when I have broken two, BTW) AL.
Here is what it will look like.......ignore the screw at the clock end and the red sleeve; plue the chrome ring should be black brass....this one is now my remote throttle stop screw adjuster. AL
Thats it! I KNEW I had seen them somewhere. It's Andrew that has Mdina Italia isn't it? I even saw him weekend before last too...
is this what you are looking for end that mounts to speedo is 3mm internl diameter and drilled for a split pin to locate it
Sorted - Thanks everyone! www.mdinaitalia.co.uk - Instrumentfoam900SS9798 Thanks AL It was Kamna in Germany, but no more; "the carbon cover is not available for 900SS" Sorted - Cheers Nog Also all others with offers and suggestions. I feel like an expert on these now. Didn't even know what they were called a few days ago :smile: Though brutalised by an over enthusiastic blaster, my uncle who is doing the paint can restore it to meet my high standards :wink:
