« F1: Stretching Our Wings | Main | I Got It Bad, and That Ain't Good »
One factor affecting my riding behavior on the F1 is the weak braking from the front. Readers may recall that the fluid was just about empty when I took delivery of the bike, and that subsequent investigation revealed a small bead of fluid at one of the brake line fittings. I reckon the F1 deserves to stop as well as she goes, so I am taking the old off to get some new made here in town.
I picked up some Ferodo pads at PJ's to replace the fluid-soaked old ones.
Also, I thought I would replace the clutch cover with the spare that the PO included in the sale. Trouble is, it is not the right one. Evidently, Ducati made a couple of different versions of clutch actuating pistons. Mine is the smaller of the two and the spare supplied is the larger. Not sure which is best, but I need either a smaller-piston cover or a larger-piston piston & spring to replace what I have now.
