Safety-wired Valve-cover bolts for 959/1299

Phl · Oct 7, 2016

this thread is for the newer gen panigale.

same purpose:

lighter valve cover bolts, with safety-wire holes for added safety against leakage.

the set contains 3 different bolt types and 10 bolts in total.

next step: arrival of original bolts and redesign in cad, then submission to manufacturer for quoting.

these bolts are different from the 8&1199, so here we go. plenty of interest in the other thread, this one is specific for the newer models.

Sweet.

Machined Ti? Rolled or cut threads?

Twistedracer · Oct 7, 2016

Will this give us the option of running with or without the covers?

Are these all going to be done at the same time? I'm in on that plug too

timwu12 · Oct 14, 2016

are the magnets anything like the ones that Dimple uses for their magnetic drain plugs? I had heard that those are super strong

i have no idea, i chose them based on the ones we use for work projects here. this special one ( i actually updated it compared to the pic) has a pull force of almost 8 lbs. that will get the particles some attention...

Phl · Oct 14, 2016

also, the magnet will not be glued in, but attracted to a setscrew, which will help ease of cleaning...

Is the 1299/2015R oil screw the same as for the old 1199 engines? If so, I would also like to join on the safety wired oil screw

DJ377 · Oct 20, 2016

I would also be in on a set. Thanks
