Yes, what ducatikev said, and the product starts at 38 dollars excluding shipment. I offer a way economical solution. Cheers

While I do agree that 38 bucks seem like alot, as an Engineer, I know it that it takes someones time to engineer, design, create the product. There is also testing and most importantly the innovative idea that the person came up with. The CAD/CAM design and then actually to produce the parts. The person deserves to be paid for all that. I know we say; "38 bucks for two small plastic pieces and a tri-bit! This is less than 5 bucks in parts". We have to remember everything that went into it.
i am a product engineer myself i do know a few things about engineering and cad software, production and the finance.You are partly right
I don't want to start an argument and I don't take anything personally on the 'net, just curious what you think I was wrong about? I'm always open to listening to people's thoughts...
So ignorant
Ok go out to ur bike and grab the throttle with ur index finger and thumb and rattle it around.
These “spacers” go around one part inside the throttle control so it’s snug. If urs rattles and has free play then you need to install these.
You’ll need a triwing bit to access these components and make the upgrade which is why our buddy Kevin from DucatiSpacers sells the kit for whatever he sells it for. And believe me ppl are buying them. I have a set on my 1299 and it’s a “must have” now that I do
if your throttle is tight then they’re already installed by the previous owner
Ducati Throttle Spacer Kits
Please be sure to choose the correct kit, based on the compatibility list. There are different kits for the Multistrada V2 and V4, for example! Some kits include two plastic spacers, while others are only a single spacer, depending on your particular throttle housing design. Thousands of Ducati...ducatispacers.com
It’s the same part on all Ducati models. They should have shipped the bikes like this in the first place. They shoulda done a lot in the first place.
Do u know how much easier it would be to corner with a perfect throttle?

what bike are u riding?
Thanks for explaining DucatiKev! I just got my first Ducati yesterday, 1199s and that was the first thing I noticed and immediately wanted to fix. I joined this forum recently to start leaning about common issues, etc about these bikes before I bought one. I’ll definitely be buying some spacers! How many are needed? Thanks for your help!
Cool, lmk. We can get a purchasing portal setup.
We celebrate all Ducati owners here, that’s y it’s called the DUCATIForum, don’t tell the guys on the PanigaleForum tho, they’ll ban u
you do wheelies like a hooligan on that thing?
still have this as an option?
yeah still got them!
