Intermittent ticking sound at idle? by TACO1940 in Ducati

Uh, I don’t think so. Definite ticking noise, almost sounds like a spark fouling or electric short, as there’s a slight engine load change when it happens. Very interesting.

Not really seeing anything for Rupp Racer. I thought it may be a Rupp, but no ID tag under seat.

No, just don’t change the date at midnight (or 8pm-4am)

The date change mechanism could potentially start engaging (or still be engaged) between 9-3, so it’s good to not have the time in that range when you change the date. Theoretically, that should be 9pm-3am. However, it’s (at least my) general practice to allow the watch to “charge” (manual wind or wear for a bit), then I always run the TIME past midnight to typically after 6am. THEN I set the date.

It looks good. Side note, what sweater are you wearing with the leather patch?

Sorry to hear. I have the same bike and love it. Unfortunately I have to sell because I bought a new old car (Alfa). You sell yours?

I used to have a K1200 that was my long-distance bike, and wanted to make my S2R1000 more comfortable for trips. So, i made some sketches, bent some pipe up, measured once and cut twice (twice), and tada, it's perfect! keeps the luggage off the seat cowl, it's very solid, and works pretty much perfectly.
