Higher output single phase genny which is fitted to the early ST2 and the 916sps. Also they both have a extra oilway to cool the genny so i believe. Looks like the early ST2 engine/bottom end is a true parts bin special.
Howdo Lady's Not quite 128.........123Bhp and very happy I is :biggrin:. I have to say this was my first injection bike and I is well impressed, love me 2 valve engines/bikes but this Aqua powered 3valver really has got the minerals. Just need the rest of the bike to work as a complete unit, all the parts are there just need to dial it in (Brakes n suspension n odds n sods, motor is spot on). 128 refers to Grandad Spinnaker's built in the back garden 851/888/916 4valver.
I still think anything over 120 is a good result, is it reliable? as some members have a passion for reliability.
I'm down bandit county 24th onwards for 3 nights, you about? Need to see Grandad about footpegs and beer!
So far the motor has been spot on, starts straight away and hasn't missed a beat (Credit to Chris at CJS for building a good motor). You can rev it through to 10,000 or just ride the torque and short shift through the box. Stronger than a good 944 2valver with 20-30bhp up top, whilst still maintaining looks and ride of the original bike. Didn't want the 4v bike and couldn't find a 1100 2valve motor. In fact on the look out for another motor for a track bike
Not found a plug but i think this will do MOLEX connector set - Standard .093" 12 way (12 circuit) | eBay I need 851/888 pegs the SS ones are wrong and too far back.
Re: o-ring problem... Horizontal head leaks oil - Ducati.ms - The Ultimate Ducati Forum O ring problem - UK Monster Owners Club Forum Mine has started leaking too, which has annoyed me somewhat. Am thinking some sort of machined stepped dowel/sleeve to locate in the oil galley barrel & casing holes which the o-ring would fit over, or a thicker/wider/flatter 0-ring??
470, Could the temperature rating on the original O ring be too low? Found this out when I cooked a turbine engine (major fuel leak), recommend Thamesdown Bearings in Cheyney Manor (Swindon), they're usually pretty helpful especially if it's something out of the ordinary....Mike
Could be? Im thinking they are too thin? Big revs - big oil pressure, they literally get hoovered down the pipe? Bought the genuine Ducati ones so should have been fine? Looking back on that statement I could never say Ducati's have always been fault-free lol
I would tap out and grubscrew the troublesome oil way and buy a 4v type oilcooler with the braided oil pipes and drill/tap out the cam shaft end caps and banjo bolt the oil feeds into them. MBP do this to all the 2V ported heads. Or you could get hold of a special oil pressure switch and run 2 hoses from there direct to the cam end covers.
Found them! FS: 2V Martin Brickwood Performance billet cam caps & oil lines - Ducati.ms - The Ultimate Ducati Forum Feeding off the oil pressure switch, yep?
Thats it Mate, But you still have the option to do it off the oil cooler and use the 4v type oil lines.
So - I would need a longer union for the oil cooler feed allowing an extra 14mm banjo fitting into the oil feeds? The oil feeds into the cam ends and exits as normal?
You will need a 916 996 st4 748 888 oil cooler,, it has a extra banjo for the oil feeds. Yes drains from heads back into sump. I did the grub screw mod on my ST2 bottom end to fit the 916 top end on my 851
Warning if you run them directly to cam covers you will send more oil to head then it can later remove back to engine. Guess what will happen then? To have extra oil lines going to heads you need to open the spare oil gallery in head, cylinder and bottom end.
