749R slipper clutch (2004) Back In June I picked up a 2800 mile lovely 749R dropping down from my GSXR1000K3, I was really looking forward to the new Ducati (I have owned a few so knew what I was letting my self in for well thought I did LOL). I was only a short distance from the dealer and realised the clutch was a bag of SH###. I rode the bike home 160 mile and contacted my local ish dealer Woods. Without seeing the bike they committed to replacing the clutch under warranty (a known problem). Well i have just managed to get the work completed after nearly 7 weeks waiting for parts grrrrrrrr and will pick the bike up this weekend. Oh and i complained to Ducati UK about the infrequent cutting out and they have agreed to adjust the CO between cyclinders for free. I can not understand why the previous owner did not have this work done and why Ducati ever let it leave the factory like that. Anyway thats my rant over nice to meet you guys. Regards DaveO |
