Following on from this thread http://www.ducati-upnorth.com/forum/showthread.php?t=8854
The frame & yokes are now at the Powder coaters and due back mid next week. Red frame & black yokes. had to order a new swingarm pivot as the old one refused to come out so had to resort to barbaric methods. New bearings ordered for the swing arm as the needle roller ones on the left hand side had seen better days.
Got myself a big tub of Gunk degreaser so am going to attack the engine and give it a right good clean in all the hard to reach places. I'll post more pics once the frame is back.
