1198 Race Shift Options

Discussion in '848 / 1098 / 1198' started by Proddieracer, Jan 22, 2015.

  1. I had Rhodes & Track fit a simple lever to my 1198 to make it "Race Shift" pattern but I am not overly mad about it. It sits a bit too high for my preference and the next spline down it fouls the belly pan. I have tried rotating the toe peg but not found a position that I am happy with.

    Has anyone successfully made the standard set up work reversed ? I looked at it and it certainly looks possible using a shorter rod or perhaps a rod with a z in it but still using all std Ducati parts.

    Or has anyone bough one of the reverse shift actuators from Ebay/USA and successfully fitted that ?


    Best Regards

  2. Two choices. Direct spline which you have, you could always 'adjust' the fairing or use the standard lonkage and turn the spline bit upside down so the peg comes frome where it is now

  3. I trial fitted the original linkage with the actuator upside down but the rod is too long to get the lever down to a point where I like it. So looks like this option but with a shorter or cut down rod.

  14. No, if you were local ish you could have seen if it works the. Bought one, but you can see in the pic how it sits much better than a straight one. Do a swap with his lordship above seems a good outcome
