Aaah, I'm off to see Nelly next week, so that ones sorted then !

I just wondered if there was anywhere that I could buy in bulk and put them somewhere safe in the garage, as I did with the other bike's spares !

Many thanks.

By doing an oil change on my van. The washer was U/S and I had a few spare ducati one lying around. Upon close inspection the sump plugs where the same thread size and the landing area for sealing faces was the same. Therefore the ducati supplied sump washer was applicable as a sump plug washer for the turdo van and vice versa. I now spend my weekends comparing van parts to bike parts for compability.

To date I have discovered that the tyres are a suitable fitment for the diavel
rear tyre and the towing hitch fits lovely on a mulitstrada MTS 1200 ABS.
