Post subject:  Rear suspension warn
There is some slack in the rear suspension where the bottom of the shock is connected. If the bike is on the center stand and I put weight on the rear hand grab the bolt moves a little in the aluminum yoke. There doesn’t seem to be any wear in the ball joint of the shock. This makes sense as the yoke is aluminum and the ball joint is steel.
Has anyone had this problem? Did you fix it by sleaving the yokes? Is this the best option?
I’m not looking forward to taking it apart because I’ve been enjoying the awesome riding weather here but The bike failed it’s warrant of fitness on this and the headlight despite the 75w bulb and relays. :sad:
I can't imagine that I'm the first as my bike has only done 23,000km and most of the Paso's have done allot more.

I'm wondering! Are you sure the bike has only 23.000 km :evil: ?
Have you tried to tighten the bolts?
Ciao

Post subject:  How tight is your rear end?
Last night I tightened all the bolts and this has helped. It is actually hard to see where the slack is.

(my wife's rear end is tight and she is not heavy enough to push the back of the bike down when on the centre stand but it would have made a great photo of her standing on a chair, bent over the back of the bike pushing down on the grab handle :lick: ).

I think there may be a little in several of the joints as well as maybe a little in the main swing arm bearings. The thing is that bottom link doesn't rotate as the shock ball has movement in it.

As for the 23k who really knows but when I look at the condition of the bikes frame, electrics and the outside of the motor compared to others I have seen photos of on this site, it looks almost new. Although the body work has been resprayed due to falls. Under the skin is still original

Post subject:  Low Km's
It's quite normal for bikes in this country to have done very little Km's as New Zealand is only 2000km long and not very wide. There are lots of nice windy roads so most people only use their bikes for short day trips. Ducati's are not often used as comuters.
Alot of our bike have come in used from Japan where they don't do many km either. I have seen a 1990 BMW K1 with only 7km on the clock. I guess someone took it home and parked it and then never used it for 16 years.

Look at this


or this

If you mean this part, then yes the same happened to my bike at 19000miles.

Was offered a good used part for £70! in the end just knocked the bearings out and replaced them.
All the wear I found in the bolts and in the bearings.
The bearings are stardard off the shelf items so your local bearing supplier should have them.
The only items i could not get are the spacers.
You can see the wear hear
