rear wheel nut removal

jdgun · Jul 28, 2015

I used this tool,

Ducati Panigale 1199s Maintenance Tool Set Chain Rear Wheel Headset 3 Tools | eBay

it stripped out the 1/2 drive, and that was me using a 4 foot cheater pipe.
Ended up using the dremel with a router bit, and made the hole a 3/4 size to fit on a larger breaker bar, and presto..

Will not be torquing to Ducati's recommended torque that is for sure.

Best way to go is an impact gun...air or battery....best thing period

Air is the only thing to get that baby off. And a decent size air tank at that a tiny one isn't even enough.

Heat gun before impact wrench.

The type of aluminium Ducati uses seems to be prone to corrosion. Hence why everything is slathered in grease.

The DeWalt is also useful for things like taking off counter sprockets, clutch baskets, etc. Best power tool in my garage.

+1. I use one of these with a cheap-ass electric impact from Harbor Freight; works great.

speedymoto socket + air impact wrench. just comes right off.

torquing it back on though - that takes some muscle!

impact wrench did the trick for me today, spray some WD40 all around, let it soak for a couple minute, and 3x 5 second impact internvals got the job done. Cost me $90 at the dealer last time around.

+2....same exact setup...really only way to do it and not go into traction or fits of rage

I did it differently.
Using front wheel chock which can hold the bike upright by itself, and put tie-down around that, front wheel, and a pillar of the house, then get my wife to sit on bike and step on the rear brake and put my weight on the breaker bar. An easy regular task as i get the tyre changed very often.
Perfect opportunity to bond with the wife over the bike.
Just don't do it while the bike is in rear stand (need to be on the ground), and don't put it in gear!!

OK ..... At the risk of sounding stupid ..... I am going to remove front and back wheels to get new tires . I am taking these wheels off of my 2014 Panigale 1199 S ..... I need a 55mm , 12 point socket for the rear ? ..... What size and style do I need for the front ?

GGG · Mar 10, 2016

So .... a 55mm 12 point for rear and a 30mm thin wall for the front ?
