Originally posted by FiscusFish As Antony says it's a well known problem with early SS frames. Some go, some don't.
The good news is Ducati will often supply a new frame for free (labour for fitting's another matter though).
Trust me - if *I* can strip down an SS to a bare frame, put it back together again and then go out and get 11th place in a Desmo Due race, it's not that hard!
