1200 DVT Rear Hub Removal

Discussion in 'Multistrada' started by Tally, Jan 19, 2025 at 9:04 PM.

  1. Hi All

    Adjusting the hub is really getting hard so I’m going to clean and check the hub. I’ve Got wheel out and axel, rear brake and sprocket off but the little frame you attach the rear brake to won’t budge. The chain adjustment won’t slacken any more which I’ve seen has to be turned fully clockwise to enable the brake adaptor to slide off.

    Any thoughts on how to get it off?

    The chain adjuster turned to its slackest point so assume it’s not going to go any further but maybe need to get a metal bar on the Ducati tool to give it more torque.

  2. Have you removed the large circlip which holds the brake plate in place? Needs large circlip pliers.

  3. Good idea to remove the eccentric hub from the swinging arm. It's probably full of dirt water and sludge.

  4. Yes everything i
    Yes everything is out including both circlips. The 13inch circlip tool I got made it a piece of cake. Got a set of 4 for £30 in a zipped case.
    called US Pro item 2255.

    Just the bracket stuck now. Anyone had to firmly gently lever it off?

  6. Got it off. Needed levering off from several different points with a screwdriver.

  7. Aluminium and screwdrivers usually don't mix. Hopefully you got it off with no "battle" scars.
