SHFT-PRO-D748 $89.95 International buyers will be billed an additional $18 for USPS Express shipping.	Pro Shift Kit Love the bike? Except for the shifting? Need a winter project? Factory Pro's famous Pro Shift Kits are now available for the Ducati Twins. Improved Factory Pro designed and manufactured Microbearing Detent Arm and Factory Pro Detent Spring will firm up shift feel and virtually eliminate missed shifts - both upshifting and downshifting. Eliminates the need for that old, annoying "ducati trick" of removing the "really kinda necessary" neutral detent that was done to quicken up the shifting on trackday and race bikes - all too often...... (did I mention that when I put a bike in neutral, that I really prefer it to STAY in neutral and not "wander into 1st gear by itself? :-) Shifts quicker. Misses fewer shifts. Feels RIGHT. Perfect to install when working on the clutch. Remove the clutch assembly, remove the RH engine cover - bolt in the kit. Includes: Factory Pro Microbearing Detent Arm and Factory Pro Detent Spring. (This kit does not include a clutch cover gasket) Installation: Less than 2 hours to install with impact wrench and large socket set. Can I install it myself? Yes - If you can remove the clutch assembly, you can do this.
CRB-D15-1.1-TI $99.95 Standard drop-in carb kit International buyers will be billed additional $16 for shipping	Adds more low-end / midrange, if the proper main jet is selected, more top-end power. Easy to install and tune - no slide drilling! Suggest using a BMC replacement air filter for increased airflow. you sent me (overnite, thank you very much!) the ducati 900ss kit last month with needle jets (I also sent you the pix of my naked ST with a factory pro jet kit) and jeee-zusss! It may as well be a new bike. Float levels were 2-3mm high and once adjusted and everything installed, the bike was perfect _ started immediately idles smoothly and pulls hard. The owner used to wear a bandolier of fresh plugs cuz she'd replace em every 80 miles or fewer in the front cyl...your kit (and setting float levels) made a huge diff. Thanks; John Foyston portland OR
CRZ-EMU-100120K $48 for 2 pieces International buyers will be billed additional $16 for shipping	Replace worn bare brass needle jets in stock carbs with Factory Pro's own stock replacement nickel plated needle jets. The needle, stock or aftermarket, will wear the needle jet orifice oblong - causing excess fuel to flow at cruise and low rpm. Additionally, the fuel that does get released is in larger, less burnable droplets. Replace the emulsion tubes / needle jets if there is more than 10k miles of varied use or 5k miles of in town driving on the bike before trying to tune. You will save time and energy. Note that, with fuel level adjustments, you can make some mixture adjustments with the "fuel level", as adjusted by "float height" changes. bad enough wear to richen low speed mixture
BMC-10401S $59.95 (street type) BMC cleanable air filter International buyers will be billed additional $16 for shipping	NEW Factory Pro BMC air filter NO stock replacement air filter filters out more dirt and flows more air with less pressure drop than BMC. It's F-1 Ferrari's first choice.
TL-float height gauge $49.95 International buyers will be billed additional $16 for shipping

ND-X24epr-ZU9 Platinum Tip Spark PlugsWe stock and distribute Denso spark plugs. Dealer inquiries invited.	Denso (ND, Nippon Denso) is the largest OEM supplier for autos and motorcycles of electrical components in the world. Sometimes, people forget that Denso makes pretty darn good spark plugs, too! Wide heat range properties discourage plug fouling at low speed AND overheating at high speed. We have been using Denso spark plugs in our AMA Supersport bikes since Denso was Nippon Denso and ND. We have found that some standard, <$10, off the shelf, Denso spark plugs work as well as $125 special spark plugs - on a professional roadrace level! Codes: X = 12mm thread with 18mm spark plug wrench required 24 = Heat range. (Hint - it is ~3x NGK #. I.E. an "8" heat range in NGK) E = 3/4" reach P = Projected tip type plug R = Resister type internal construction Z = Thin platinum center electrode w/ tapered ground (side) electrode U = "U Groove" side electrode for better spark and finally.. 9 = is "pregapped" at .9mm (I think you should check all "pregapped" plugs before you install them...That's my paranoia showing.)	~$10 USD
TL-float height gauge $49.95

This Carb Recal Kit is the biggest selling kit in Italy! It was developed on the EC997a Eddy Current dyno and ROAD TESTED for best part throttle "snap". Make sure to adjust float heights when installing and tuning the Ducati!

Be sure to careful inspect the needle jets (it's the orifice hole in the emulsion tube) for any signs of ovality. Any wear in the hole will allow fuel to enter the carb bore in large droplets that do not burn efficiently and arrive in higher quantities than desired causing poor low speed operation.

Factory Pro stocks stock replacement emulsion tubes for Ducati, TDM/TRX, yzf750 and fzr1000 carb sets. Marc

Float Height Setting Trick for 38mm "Mik's"
One of the problems with setting the float height on the 38mm downdraft Mikuni's that come on Ducati's, yzf 750's, tdm 850's and fzr1000's, is that the darn white plastic "float cage" keeps popping out of the carb body unless you hold it in.When you hold it in with your fingers, you always flex the cage frame and distort the reading that you are setting the float height at..... Aaarrggghhh!! :-) After spending 45 minutes setting some yzf750 carbs in the sweltering Mid Ohio heat of summer, I decided to make a float cage holder and sell 'em! I'd make a million $$!!
When I got back to work, I set up and made a pile of cute little flat braces. As I was sitting there, admiring my cleverness...... one of my parts guys wandered by and asked what was I making? I showed him that you could just take my clever little piece of aluminum and hold those float cages right tightly up into their seated position - so you could get consistent float height readings.
He says..... It looks like you could just put the float bowl on with the front holes on the bowl lined up with the rear holes on the carb body and slap some screws in and it would do the same thing...........
I bought him lunch with the million $$ I didn't make.... Marc
Hello. Here�s the pics you asked for! Thanks for the help, the bike runs BEAUTIFULLY now, lots more power! The front end now comes up on the throttle � whereas it didn�t before! There�s another pic in there too where I used a bar code to measure the bowls. I found this a lot easier than using a ruler. I measured the bar next to the number �8� on my barcode to be the recommended height on my bike � 14mm. -Mike Beary Thanks Mike, for the pics! Marc Salvisberg
