Thanks for the video. If you overtighten the nut you will wear out the bearings prematurely. 190Nm seems really high for a regular swingarm. Various forums are listing 156Nm (which still seem high). I owned a 996 and it, like all single sided swingarms, needed really high torque values. Cheers
Thanks for the excellent video! I've been searching for the correct torque number, consensus seems to be that the 230 Nm is for the single sided swing arm MTS, 156-180 seems to be what's prescribed for MTS950/V2. Although my local shop just told me 60-70 Nm is much better. I wish Ducati just simply published the numbers.
Yes, I couldn't find any figures which were consistent so I went for a higher figure. Since then I've reduced it to 190 Nm. Thank you for that information
Excellent video, thank for taking the time to create it and share it with us the motorcycle enthusiasts!! from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Thank you for the comment, that is very appreciated.

Yes.. you're absolutely right! I've retorqued the nut to 180 and updated the description. Thanks

Seems still allot man ...my yamaha r1 needs just 110nm rear...grts from belgium 😊
yep, I was surprised too!
Why are there Zip Ties on a few of the spokes?
Very good spot! I put them on to mark alongside where my punctures where, taken them off once I remembered they were still on..
@@gonetouring Great idea! I have the same bike and I love those red wheels, but they are a chore to keep clean!!
Yep, especially the inside bits of the spokes!
