When You have checked Your valve clearances???? If they are totally wrong, it can happen that way..... I havent measured compressions in my 907, but its easy job in all car maintaining companies and if they are "low", or another is low, U have problems in valves.... I know, that if valve clearences are NOT correct, then U HAVE such starting problems and normally, when engine gets hot, it goes more worst.... |

Timbo, Before tearing it down you can do a simple leak down test to determine exactly where the compressed air is going. Have you done this before? It not much harder than a comression test. If the valves haven't beed adjusted for years/miles this could be the simple cause of low compression. Easier to check valve clearance than tear the top end off. Check out the Ducati Suite for instructions. |

It can be burned exhaust valves, totally wrong valve clearances, bad valve seats, bad valve guides..... But check valve clearances first !!! |
