Changing belts on a 2001 748s for first time Have changed 600ss belts before and used deflection and allen key methods with no trouble Have picked up a facom dm16 tool for this change Also have a guitar tuner on hand Does anyone use the facom tool and what tension setting do you use? (waiting for tool to arrive) Re a guitar tuner - what frequency is recommended and what does this equate to - presumeably in strings or mhz! Thanks
Have a look on ducati upnorth in the tech section you will find a good guide to belt changing. This has the facom tool and shows which setting to use etc. brian.
for a 4 valve I have used the No 4 'shim' and adjust it so the bottom of the top groove is aligned. 2 valve could be set slightly looser without any harm occurring.
Brilliant guys thanks for your feedback Tool arrived today and looks v good Will be good to set tension properly from now lol
