valve oil seal
Ducati 1973 750 GT
I am having a problem with the horizontal exhaust valve seal dislocating after about three starts. The result is that I start burning the oil that and smoke coming from the exhaust. I have replaced the valve oil seal three times with the aqua colored seal, bedded it with a 12mm socket and this still doesn't hold the seal in place. Any solutions? Should I use some form of sealant to "glue" the rubber to the valve guide, or use a different valve seal?

HELP PLEASE!
Ducati 748S
Hello,
My Ducati 748 has been in storage while I finished my Naval service overseas. It's only seen about a 100 miles in the Sun over the last 3 years so I decided to send it to the shop to have have brakes and fluids changed and have the tires checked out as well. Just a basic road safety check-up.
Then I get "the call." While checking out my bike the mechanic dropped the entire tail section of my bike scratching the paint and cracking the fairing somehow to a point beyond repair! They have told me they will pay to "fix" my bike but then they got worried when they realized I have a custom "Senna" paintjob that was done when I bought the bike new in Naples, Italy.
The last message I got from the dealership was that they were gonna have to order the part from Bologna and then send it out to see if they can find someone who can match the paint. So far they have been pretty nice to me and I have somehow managed not to blow my cool over the damage to my baby.
I guess my question for you is this.. What are they obligated to do? I don't wanna screw them over but I don't want to be taken advantage of by being so "understanding" either.

Restarting after storage
1987 Ducati Paso 750cc
Hello I have a 1987 Ducati Paso 750cc been parked for a long time might have oil leak otherwise seems fine. Any ideas on a restart procedure on this bike.
Honolulu Hi.

Drain fuel from tank and carby bowl, add fresh fuel. Recharge or replace battery. Remove plugs and add a teaspoon of penetrating oil to each cylinder. Wind the engine over a half-dozen times no choke no throttle ignition off, but with fuel on.

Ignition on, choke, tiny bit of throttle, hit the starter. If no joy after 30 seconds, stop. Don't just keep winding it over or you'll cook the starter.

Try a bit of Aerostart or some other starting gas - spray it into the airbox, not too much. This time, use no choke or half choke. If still no joy, check spark, fuel supply and compression.

hello. can 900cc.pantah [elephant]-barrells be put on a 750cc.pantah-engine. what heads can be used, is the stroke the same. what mods would need done if any. 1989 eng.thanks.tommy.
n.ireland

hello i have 3 duc / cagiva indiana's 2 X650cc. 1 X 750cc. also a spare frame that i am going to do a special with. i am selling off 2 of these [ house-sale]. [ is there a 900cc pantah-eng. ] i thought i seen one in an elephant or an alazzurra. can i fit the barrells and heads of one off these engines onto my 750cc. or is it too much hassle. or can 900cc monster barrells and heads be used. i am thinking of triking the spare-frame and fitting a 900cc. carb monster engine. any help would be greatly appreciated. tommy.

I believe the engine mounts are different between the 750 and 900 engines, and the 900 barrells have a larger stud spacing than the 750 and hence won't fit. Ed.

i have 3 duc. indiana's. they have the same square frame as some of the elephants, only twin rear shocks. they were only made from 1987-1990, and have the pantah 650+750cc. engines. i am shifting house so i need to sell of 1 or 2 of them to give me room. i have a spare frame that i am going to put a twin disc front-end in. if i can find out which square framed elephant had the twin -disc. i will use there yokes. i have a great pair of 38mm duc-forks. twin-disc, so i am hoping the elephant yokes are 38 or even 40mm. i know the allazzura-has a twin-disc front end, but they and are 35mm, the later one's even has the same-wheels as mine. but the bottom yoke is the problem i need the yoke stem to take a 25mm.bore bearing.// not the 26mm than is on my GT-twin-yokes that i have . the head -stock on the square-frame elephant will be the same length as mine, but the alazzura head stock is 6mm. shorter. at the end of the day i want to put in a twin-disc front end, [ duc-cagiva if possible. any help would be greatly appreciated. any help would be greatly-appreciated. thanks-tommy.

Ducati Forks
these are the forks i hope to use. they are 38mm. the ones in the indys are 40mm, but only single-disc. you would probably know more about forks etc. than me. thanks-tommy.

These forks are almost certainly from a Ducati 750 Sport or GT of 1973 vintage. They will accept Lockheed, Scarab or special Brembo calipers. I think they are made by Ceriani. They're fairly primitive compared to the forks fitted standard to the Indiana, and are probably worth a good deal to a collector.

Ducati Indiana 750 1987-90

...........
thanks for taking the time to help. do these 750 sport-forks work -well. a lot of people have took interest in them when i showed them. i take it there hard to get hold of, they are in great cond that's one of the reasons i want to use them. is it the forks that would be worth a few bob to the right person, or the calipers. the c. to c. caliper-holes on the sport-slider would be 88mm. would calipers be hard to get. the rear indy caliper is 84mm c. to c. [ i thought i was lucky there. but maybe 4pot would be better] if i could pick up a forks slider / sock, but a right hand side- the same pattern as the indy 40mm. with twin disc mounts. that would be very- handy. the indy-slider has the cagiva elephant stamped on the bottom near the axle holes, i am still hoping that elephant forks might work out. the stanchions- are 3" shorter on the 750.sport-forks, but i will get away with it as i have lowered the front 30mm anyway. and the indy frame still sits approx 200mm. high-- and that's with her lowerer 30mm. i want her low like a streetfighter. she is a high bike, so i should get away with it. if i am stuck and shop around i could pick up a top-yoke that [ elbows ] drops down. i will put a 900cc. monster engine in her, [ carb-model ] . st2 duc- rear-hugger fits these swinging-arms well. probably red./ yellow. well thanks again for letting me bend your ear. where abouts are you usa. thanks tommy.

As I said, those forks are very old technology, and cannot be expected to work anywhere
near as well as modern forks, Tommy. As well as the bikes previously mentioned, they are
also fitted to Greenframe SS's, so that may give you a clue as to what they're worth.
Original calipers of the types mentioned will not be easy to come by or cheap, unless you
get really lucky. Strongly recommend selling the leading axle forks and getting something closer to the originals. And if you're serious about turning the bike into a real motorcycle, why not just sell the Indianas and replace them with the bike I personally think is the
best road bike ever made - a Monster. :)
