1200 DVT 14 Tooth Sprocket

Discussion in 'Multistrada' started by duceri, Aug 22, 2015.

  1. Had a 14 tooth sprocket fitted today at ducati Manchester only because I couldn't budge the nut. 1st service as well, when they brought the bike out it had a new gold chain on. When questioned why, they said they had to spilt the chain to fit the sprocket. Result was they didn't have a new split link for the old chain so had to fit new gold one at no cost to me. Personally i think it a result. Thanks Ducati Manchester for the great service.

  3. @duceri IT IS a D.I.D !!!! And I think it could me mine!!! When did you take it up?
    Took mine for 1st service just last week Friday 14th and they were fitting my black sprocket and carrier that was on my 2013 that they took in part ex.
    I questioned about the "gold chain" and they told me it wouldn't fit as the front sprocket was different even though the rear was the same 40 tooth.
    They put me the black sprocket on and red carrier along with the original chain on dvt. Tried giving me the original sprocket and carrier that came off the 2013 ... er ...no I said ... want the one off my new dvt bike ...looks like he's put that on your old one he said...don't worry I'll get you a new one and send in the post.

  4. What's the delivery of power like now with the 14t?

    Does it feel snappier off the throttle?
     
  5. Hi yes definitely feels more lively. Done this mod to the last five bikes .
     
  6. the chain won't fit...pmsl
     
  7. This affects the speedo reading right? By much?
     
  8. Shouldnt affect speedo reading but has raised revs by about 250 rpm cruising in 6th gear,
     
  9. According to gearingcommader (they only have 2010 tho) you'll likely lose 11mph off the top end. Although you'd do well to hit 160 in standard trim

    At 6745 revs its 84mph vs 90 std
     
  10. Hmm I thought it was revving less at 90 as standard, 250 RPM does not sound a lot tbh in 6th. to I assume a lot more fun in lower gears etc.
    Cant imagine it would make a lot of difference in fuel either with high speed cruising?
     
  11. Give you an idea, like I say original 1200 model but cant imagine its miles out

  13. Moisturiser and face scrub :upyeah:
     
  14. Even if you change the gearing wont the electronics still limit the power to the rear tyre if the ECU feels its the right thing to do?
     
  15. What a fantastic mod. Wasn't a problem to fit just a little fiddly to get the chain over old sprocket, once that was out the way it was a breeze.
    I strongly recommend it..

  20. Good result for you :) Shame they don't read this forum at DMC, they should know you don't need to split the chain to fit the 14t sprocket
