I started this process yesterday, got to the point of those two little radiator and oil cooler bolts, and thought how the hell am I going to get those back on, once off, so I abandoned ship LOL. I started searching KZfaq and ran across this, so thanks for posting your experience. I ordered a couple new tools, ratcheting and flex head 8mm wrenches, and some low profile sockets, to hopefully assist in getting those two crap bolts back on. I will try again, early this weekend, so I can get it done with time to ride, so I don't forget why I bought a ducati hahaha... Wish me luck ;)

Bike came alive after 3,500 miles. Just ran a 9.54 in the 1/4 mile. Launch control is WILD !! will get it on the Dyno shortly. expecting 205 + @ the rear wheel. only complaint is millage too a tank of fuel. Well, you want too play, you got to pay.

You might have to update your Sena's firmware. My buddy are getting ready to ride from Minnesota to Montana and We put my Cardo Black in Bluetooth pairing mode and his Sena 20's into cellphone pairing mode. We connected seamlessly. In order to get the Sena into cell phone mode, you push the back button until it starts flashing red/blue and the Cardo will connect within a few seconds and then don't do anything for a few more seconds and the Sena will connect. I hope this helps.

@@RowdyFox Did you press the connection button on the cardo for three seconds only or did you press the phone button after that too. The way it works, crossbrand intercom cardo has to go into „cardo gateway“ and sena into phone pairing. Usually then after you have built the connection, the cardo user can initiate the intercom by tapping the connection button. It works the other way around as well. You then would have to put the sena into universal pairing which is hidden deep in the extra menus and the cardo into phone pairing

It took me five if not six hours to install this, with great care to prevent damage. It was enjoyable until it came time to get the oil cooler post out of the bottom of that support; from there until you officially have the support back in place, you will not be having fun. Getting the oilcooler post back into the rubber grommet at the very bottom of the support was a bit of a nightmare. There's not a lot of room for tools to use to bend the ear with rubber grommet down for the post to go in to (and I wasn't willing to scratch anything with prying tool anyway), and it will tend to push the grommet out of the hole; I did it by hand and it wasn't easy. A few tips: The oil cooler grill does not stay in place on its own as you are reassembling - save yourself the frustration and tape it in place. I used scotch tape which barely held but was better than nothing, I wanted to be sure I would be able to pull and remove it all. Getting the post on the bottom of the oilcooler back in place is the linchpin of reassembly and for me was the worst part with everything loose and threatening to scrape/fall/bend everything else. I had good luck with putting a loose screw in on the middle of the radiator support on the right side as I was reassembling, this side hangs down more and without something to hold it up, things were not going well as I pulled that bottom ear down enough to get the post on the bottom of the oil cooler back in place. There are two long specialized screws that go through the front corners of the black farings, these secure the top of the large radiator support frame, and the right one also mounts one ear of the coolant overflow tank. They go through rubber grommets in the ears of the radiator frame, and those grommets should have a metal spacer with a washer that sandwiches the rubber grommet/isolator. Without this spacer/washer sandwiching the rubber grommet, things are going to be bad. The washers are easy to miss and even the spacer fell out and perched on the radiator as I pulled the fairing off, I never saw the thing assembled and did not know I was missing parts, or what the parts were when I found them as I was reassembling. I probably spent 45 minutes trying to assemble this wrong, initially I thought the spacer and washer were for the coolant tank. I could imagine someone really struggling to get the tiny nuts at the top of the oil cooler back in (and likely the metal spacers that are inserted into the grommets before the nuts, since these will likely pop out during reassembly if not disassembly) but if you put the part (nut or spacer) on the bent end of a small allen wrench, you can move the part into place, and touch the tip of the wrench to the tip of the stud such that the part (spacer or nut) will be pretty much perfectly aligned and ready to be carefully pushed in or screwed on while the wrench is holding it in place and aligned; it's still fiddley but it'll probably work better than trying to reach with your fingers or pliers. In general, don't tighten all the screws in a section until you have all the screws in place and just short of finger tight, especially for the radiator support and fan screws. That whole assembly will need tweaking as it goes back together which is easy with everything loose. As you are tightening the radiator support, you'll probably need to carefully push the top of the grill in toward the radiator so that it can go under the top of the radiator support. Once it's pressed in, you'll be able to push the radiator up a bit and life will be good. I expect if you tried to assemble it without that top edge of the grill fully sandwiched between the support and radiator, the radiator would be too low and cause problems. It's velcro that holds the two upper painted fairings on to the tank near the rear. It's incredibly strong and pulled half of the velcro tab off of the fairing before it released on one of mine. You pull the rear end of the fairing out away from the bike to release to velcro (don't pull it up or down as there is an alignment pin), and then the front of the fairing needs to slide up off of a post; the front of the fairing should not be pulled out, it slides up. There's one stylized bolt on each side (a large bright head with a ring of dimples around the edge) - this is a torx head, not a hex allen head like everything else. You can do this job with surprisingly few tools, two allen wrenches, one 8mm wrench, and one torx... but you are going to need the patients of a saint.
@RowdyFox3 жыл бұрын
Wow! This comment is awesome! I'm going to pin, it's very detailed, and you explained everything very well! One tip for the radiator and oil cooler cover, put the bottom of it on first (the tab that goes onto the oil cooler.) Its much easier to get the upper tabs on than the lower one. I hope my video helped you at least a little bit, even if it took you awhile. This job is definitely not an easy one! Thanks again for watching, and writing out such amazing instructions!
@privateparty49003 жыл бұрын
@@RowdyFox I'm glad you mentioned how much trouble you had completely removing the support, and the ziptie on that hydraulic line would have been hard to find. I think it's pretty likely I would have tried to remove support too but there's nothing to be gained. Instead I never even really got the support completely loose I just pulled it far enough out to slide the radiator grill in. I tried pushing the support down but I didn't see how I would get the support high enough to clear two posts on top of the radiator (if I did the bottom post first) and the radiator itself wouldn't go down far enough to clear the bottom post if you left the two top posts engaged. The right side moves quite a bit but the left side has such a short piece of hose between the radiator and the water neck... and then of course, radiator and cooler get joined in the middle by the two studs with the 8mm nuts as you bring the support back in to place. I didn't want to put too much pressure on it. I just deferred to the "instructions" which indicated working with the bottom oil cooler post and springy ear/tab. It seems like there must be a better way to deal with those posts but I'd almost bet that the factory service manual will prescribe pulling that bottom ear down with a special tool.
