Is the standard none return valve on the fuel tank breather ok for the ACU (600SS) or do I need to get another one. Also has anyone out there got a rear huggar Standard is ok as it would be a shame to trash the new Ohlins.

Standard one should be OK providing its working, It has to be vented into a catch bottle though

So is there a list of ACU requirements mods that I'll have to make for the Monster?

DO I need to sort this catch-bottle thingy? Any other gotchas that I've not considered?

I thought that as long as the oil filter, drain plug and oil filler cap were wired up that's about it - any more?

Not only is it a ACU requirement but also a Desmo Due rule requirement

1.6.11 Fuel Tank
Fuel tanks must be either OEM Ducati OR made of steel or aluminium.
Fuel tanks with tank breather pipes must be fitted with non-return valves that discharge into a catch tank with a minimum volume of 250cc made of a suitable material.

Tim there are two lists the copy of the rules for the series and for ACU licence holders

I'd best get the list out then!!

OK - so is this just a matter of fixing an old brake fluid bottle to the frame somewhere and redirecting the tank overflow pipe into it - or am I missing the point????
