It could be just the selector claw needs setting up, you can do that without striping the motor.
Ducati boxes are quite robust I would be surprised if you have damaged a gear.

How much do you trust the guy doing the quote & is he a Ducati man? you don't need many special tools to strip a Ducati engine & you may not even have to strip it to repair the box.

+1 to what Chaz says.

[dunlop0_1]

+2 on that. Just started rebuilding a stripped a 900 engine. No special tools needed apart from a heavy duty puller for the crank gear but you wouldn't need to remove that.

Hi Guys thanks for your responses. I'm getting her back next week with a view to stripping. Chaz I've sent you a PM.

Just wondered whether you decided to break it & whether it was worth it. Been thinking about the same with my 1098 rather than trying to px it.

[jangol]

What parts you got on your 1098

[pbrown]

Everything is standard except Penske shock & EVR slipper.

[Giorgio]

P brown what's the evr slipper like my stock clutch is about to ned replacing and was after a ducati cores 4 spring but heard good things about EVR

[pbrown]

EVR slipper is very good. Very little maintenance or no as its not typical ramp type like DP. Expensive though compared to DP.
