FWIW Wieres list front sprockets for the DB2/3/4,14 and 15T, different part number to those listed for Ducatis so I assume they're Bimota specific.
I also got a 15T from Sprocket Specialists in the ... |

Thanks 2bims, obtained a pair as spares for my DB4ie. These are the sort of unique parts that I worry about replacing if I ever drop my bike, hence why I have a spare 'tank'/seat unit.. Quickly delive ... |

I had my DB4ie dyno'd a few years back, also on a Dynojet. Standard engine with a modified map. Max power was 77.3 @ 8000rpm, max torque 55.7 ft-lbs @ 6000-6250 rpm. |

Thanks 2Bims, that's the one. I thought it was a lowhead but it doesn't fit into a recess which the one on the pedal does so doesn't look as neat. After losing the original I've used a longer screw an ... |

Apologies for a really trivial question, but the front screw on my DB4ie gearchange link rod fell out a few weeks ago, fortunately I was only a few hundred metres from home so limped back in 2nd gear. ... |

So glad that you got two of the bikes back quickly, it could have been a lot worse. Hope the DB6 turns up.
It's been a reminder to me and hopefully others to remain diligent about security - although ... |

In my experience PJ do charge an admin fee for adding bikes as I've done this twice. However earlier this year when I was insuring my Ducati Paso 750 I did the usual online price comparisions, typical ... |

That's rather accurate, I did the same test with a GPS app on my phone and checked my DB4ie speedos. The Sigma cycle speedo I've fitted matched the phone exactly, as you would hope, while the bike spe ... |

When I managed to break the electrical connection off one of my DB4ie injectors my local auto injection specialists matched it up with one from a Fiat Panda car, Weber part WFI024. Didn't quite match ... |

The second set for me, the more angular look matches the bikes styling. The first set would match the more rounded curves of my DB4.

So perhaps the discrepancy was also done deliberately by Bimota. If I didn't have the cycle speedo fitted I'd see if I could find a speedo drive with a different ratio to correct the error.

I've checked my bike, with the original Anteras, and the rear is definitely marked 5.50 x 17. FWIW this matches the DB4ie brochure. Perhaps Bimota fitted whatever they had available, especially as the ... |
