I heard a whisper today that there has been a problem with the 749's throwing the big ends??

Don't know how true it is? I haven't heard it before. Maybe coincidence??
Best of luck with Ducati.

It may not have been shimmed properly. I don't think you are the first

Thats intresting i'm told that this is not a problem on the 749, But how many 2 year old 749s out there have done 9000 miles?.
If Ducati do the honourable thing and pay up, i'm going to test ride a 2005 749s & 999 on Friday.
If they dont pay up i might have to turn Jap!!!!
