Hi, got a mate who lives abroad and has an ST2 who has asked me to see if any of you guys can help with a question he has.

Basically his alternator packed up recently and he has asked - 'If the bike is a 98 or 99 has the alternator stator and spacer been replaced. Ducati came up with a new spacer to spray more oil on the stator to keep it cool and hopefully prevent it from failing. Newer bikes have a different alternator design and this is not an issue. Part N° I have been given is 71311242A, but my local dealer doesnt seem to know if it's a replacement spacer, it cost £64 so don't want to buy it if it's the same as the old one. I found this info on the net it's a US site called Richard's Ducati ST2 pages'.

Thanks
Scully
