Check Your Nuts!

  1. Hi guys, I noticed some free play on my rear sprocket when lubing my drive chain at the weekend and assumed the play was in the cush drive so nipped in to see Nelly @ cornerspeed today to pick his brains about it, when I asked him how much free play is ok on the cush drive he checked it out & noticed the rear sprocket but was slightly loose - he then torque it up for me (without being prompted) and mentioned that 3 out of 5 Ducatis he services have loose rear sprocket nuts (the drivetrain is trying to undo the sprocket nut all the time) he suggested checking it for tightness every 500 miles, I'm very grateful I spoke to him today - he may have just saved my life - so like the title says "check your nuts!"
    Happy Monstering
