  1. I did ask the machine shop guy if he could make them from gold plated titanium and he said he can do them, so long as i accept that they will be made from this

    For AirCon though, I'll deliver his in a nice little bag with red sparkles and nicely tied with ducati red bows

    Clearly I should spend more time cleaning the bike and less time riding it, sorry :-(

  4. I'm swithering. The bike is just gone 5 years old with coming up for 35,000 miles but the play in the sidestand pivot is negligible, about a mm.

  5. That's the side stand switch bolt. Remove that and you'll see the stand bolt underneath

  6. On closer inspection, put me down for one too.

  7. Count me in as well, I've never thought the side stand was as sturdy as it should be. Thanks.

    Perhaps this is more moderator friendly.

  15. There was a thread a while ago about this issue as my side stand bolt was missing and the bike was leaning over far more than normal. Dropped into Laguna's and the mechanic couldn't quite fathom how the bolt had come out as part of the frame/bike partially obscured the bolt head. As he had a job putting another bolt in. From memory it wasn't a direct Ducati replacement part. Which is probably why it's been fine ever since!

  16. Hi, i would be also interested, will that bolt fit on 2015 model ?

  17. Sounds like this should form part of a Ducati Safety Recall programme to me? Not much fun when the Mutley falls over and pins you to the ground (I tested this by 'not' using the side stand once!).

  18. According to the list obtained from my dealer, yes it will fit, I'll add you to the list Teemu

  19. Hi Everyone,
    Here is the list of people requiring what.
    Where I have not had a quantity indicated I have assumed 1.

    Can you please check the list for the quantity and let me know if its wrong by PM.

    For those who have yet to PM me your email, see the list :)

    Due to the lack of option to add a table its in a text file

    BR
