Cheers for the comments guys. I guess I will just replace them again and put it down to a dodgy bearing. I didn't use pukka Ducati bearings, just got some 6005-2RS/C3 bearings off a local factor...Who knows... probably made by the Shon Kee Bearing company somewhere in Papua New Guinea :P

I used the "socket on the outer race" method to pop them in. I've still got an old Montesa 348 in the shed that used to eat wheel bearings for breakfast with all the mud and grit that trials bikes live in, so I've done a few.

I still think that the lack of a torque wrench and just whacking the nuts up until my nuts start to creak with the effort could be crimping the bearings up to much.

Hey ho...it's only work!
