Hi there, check the description below, I have created a file containing all the parts, perhaps you can find someone local who can help you making them. Cheers!
Great video. Just taken mine apart and looking for the right epoxy. I see that you used the Permatex 84115 5-Minute Plastic Weld Adhesive and was wondering whether is safe and resistant to petrol / gas.
I ended up making my own part at the end. For the epoxy, I would google search for the correct epoxy (the one that resistant to fuel) great question though! If you figure which one works, please post here for others 😉
Very good video. I've had the same issue with my sensor inside the epoxy: the crimped metal connection broke. Due to vibration or thermal expansion, whatever. In my opinion this is a major design failure so your repairable solution is a very good solution. Needs bullet-proof insulation against petrol since the sensor is right above the cyylinder. Sudden smell is a warning if it would start to leak. ;-) Next time I make the repairable gasket solution as well, thanks for the idea.
Thank you. Just for reference I’ve used NBR rubber for gaskets (make sure it is fuel resistant, there are different types) and PO plastic for the rest of the part. After few weeks of riding no leaks. Best of luck!
Excellent video! I have the same problem, I will do the second option. Can you share the design(project) of the pieces and what material you used, please?
@@Mr.BadMechanic the joke is .. this model does not have one, only reserve light. a lot of people ask for it, including me. i would pay pretty peeny to have it retrofitted
@@Mr.BadMechanic nah, don't focus on ECU externaly mounted indicator would be fine. there are plethora of ducatistas finding excuses on why its not possible (tank shape, costs, vibration etc). it all sounds like nonsense to me.
I’ve looked into streetfighter tank, the fuel sensor could be simply zip tied to a fuel pump. I think you could use any kind of sensor (tubular shape) as for electrical part perhaps something like raspberry pi and small screen would work. I’m not an IT guy so can’t really tell if it would work.
When I grow up I want to be like you 😁 fantastic vid thanks a lot. Are you planning any more multi maintenance vids? They’d be greatly appreciated 👍🏻
Thanks for kind words 🥹 yes I do have some ideas for the future with multistrada, DIY easy work on maintenance 😉
I sold my Ducati, but even so, this video was very instructive and a pleasure to watch.
Mine had this problem, by the way.
Can’t believe how many people have this problem. This should have been a recall.
@@Mr.BadMechanic World Wide!!!
Very impressed with video, just straight to it. Could you create all the parts and sell it as an upgrading kit? As i dont have a laser cutter.

Thanks a lot!

Hey man, nice video. I have the same problem with my 1200 enduro. May I ask for the files to cut the sensor removal tool. Thanks a lot man!
Hey, thanks for watching. I will upload the file and send you the link.
Here is the link for the tool:

Hi, here is the link, let me know if it works ;)

Great video. Also a great solution - if you have a laser cutter. Alas that rules most of us out - you should consider selling the gaskets 😁
Thank you. 😊
😮im impressed and entertained, thanks!
would you consider fixing streetfighter-v2/v4 fuel gauge problem? its well known by users
Thanks. I need to buy streetfighter first 😎😉
@@Mr.BadMechanic the joke is .. this model does not have one, only reserve light.

I feel you, had the bike with reserve light only. The hardware part probably would be possible, but coding the ecu it’s another question…

EXRTEMELY important notice -> epoxy glue NEEDS to be petrol resistant ! which is very rare and hard if not impossible to find !!
Yes that’s true! 🙃
hahaha its a really great tutorial, will try on my SS 2017. Shame that ducati engineers didn't do that from factory
Best of luck mate! Hope it works.
