    3200gt Oil

    No probs. My Duc is a 900SS of 1993 vintage, arguably the best looking of the lot, which I bought in 1996 @ just 1,000 miles. Following a 10 year layup I put it back on the road earlier this year. It's still only done 3,200 to this day. FWIW, Bridgestone BT016s have transformed the bike...

    3200gt Oil

    Yes, I have written extensively on Selenia for 3200s. This is not a question of what may or may not be suitable as there are several equivalents including AGIP Racing 10w60, but rather what is recommended by the factory and the fact that the 3200 engine was designed and developed using this oil...

    Suspension springs, 3200 AC 'Racing Trim'?

    Guys The early 4200s were fitted with standard 3200 springs and not the AC variant. The AC spec components are listed by the factory and therefore Eurospares under "Racing Option" hope this helps

    Ferrari / maserati sd3 and sd2 scan tool

    Unlike the SD2 the SD3 does in fact have substantial memory and does not need modules to be constantly loaded and unloaded. In fact many different models can be loaded up with ALL modules in advance. There is a finite limit and there are bugs that surface if too many many models are pre-loaded...

    4 Wheel Alignment at Grimaldi Engineering

    No probs Matt - Yes it's been a while due to intense work but I have managed to post ocassionally over the road AND got my Ducati back on the road after 10 years layup. Folks continually moan on here about a 3 year service interval for changing cambelts on 3200s but my Duc is just 2 years with...

    Hissing 3200

    Neither the secondary air system nor turbo circuit for that matter, would remain pressurised "about 1 hour" after engine shutdown so both can be ruled out. More likely to be a leak in the a/c circuit in proximity to the condensor. You need to get this looked at ASAP driving the car as little as...

    Metal cog underneath suspension actuator

    Replacing the motor tappet in situ is the wrong approach as this suggests you have not ascertained the cause of its failure in the first place. As stated above, the actuator has a nylon driving gear which is designed to fail without damaging the slave tappet or indeed the shock absorber...
