It's a '95 bike that has never had the nut removed. 1999-2000 Flywheel/Alternator Rotor Retaining Nut Problem Ducati issued a service bulletin concerning the stock nut. If the nut spins-on with little resistance it’s out of spec and must be replaced with an upgraded nut from Ducati. An different rotor was introduced for the 2001 model year that put an end to the issue. |
Hello
With reference I was introduced to the world of Ducati's 748's pre 2001 and after a year the lump seized due to the Alternator Rotor Retaining Nut doing its thing.
I missed the info/advise from Ducati at the time but bought a 2001 lump and all is well.
lesson learnt the hard way . . . I would not wish this on anybody, nice of Ducati turn their back once their warranty ran out.

Is this the same company?
If the bike is pre 2001 I would have it checked.
