Troubleshooting a Ducati 696 clutch | Project Money Monster | EP.7 

You have the side stand down. There is a cut out swith conected to it. If you put the bike in gear with the stand down the engine with stop automaticly. Its there to prevent you riding off with it down.

Thanks! Nice and straight up to the point. I feel much more confident to do a work like that now...

Just binged through the series, real HQ stuff! Cant wait for the fire up!

Awesome job working on the bike, explaining and editing the video. Quality disassembly and reassembly too. 👍

FYI if the bike has been sitting a long time you don't need to disassemble a stuck clutch to free it - just park it with the front wheel pressing(hard) against a solid wall, put both brakes on, pull in the clutch, give a whiff of gas and bang it into gear (keep the clutch pulled!). After a few bumps like that she comes right - it can happen to any bike left sitting too long.

ok, thx mate, i hav the same problem on my monster 796. now i know what to do. grtz from belgium

Nicely done! And what a cliffhanger!

I'm having some similar issues with my 796. Mine sat for a while, and I'm having to do the fixes for all of that. The oil was horrible first off, which is all gone. The clutch plates were pretty corroded, though not horrible. But those are now switched out (just waiting for the liquid gasket to torque down the cover). Finally, I'm having bleeding issues. Which sucks, because I've never had a hydraulic clutch and know nothing about it. I think the master cylinder is fine. But the lines look burnt/corroded. So replacing that anyways. But bleeding the clutch was just not happening, and I think it's at the slave cylinder too. When I pumped hard more old brake fluid came out, which tells me there's definitely some sort of blockage in there. So upgrading the slave cylinder anyways. Could just see if I can take it apart and clean it out, but I heard it's a mod that smooths out the shifting so probably a mod I'd do in the future anyways. Who knows, but it looks better anyways haha. Just gotta wait for parts to come in and hope the combination of the line + slave cylinder does the trick. The joys of buying a vehicle that's sat for a bit 😂

Loving the build progress, you've earned a new sub with this project! Excited for EP.8 :)

Thanks for the video! Got the same issues on mine so Im gonna put on a new set of plates.

Great vid, thanks so much. Bike is looking really great. My clutch is starting to slip a little when under load... so I will need to check it all out. What torque settings did you use for clutch plate and case? Also was the case gasket you used THREEBOND paste or an actual gasket?

Check your kickstand. If kickstand is down it will stall when you put bike into gear! (safety feature)

I did like you say and when i put first gear the bike moving without even that i realise the clutch lever,its just not stand when i press clutch And when the bike on first gear is not go to nutral and upper gear ,only if i speed on first gear,then he will go to upper gear,what could it be i did wrong????

So it workk? 🙏🙏🙏 i hve same problem when put in gear 1 then engine stop

bike will always turns engine off if you have the stand open and you put a gear in.

Well did it work???? Damn!!!

I have a 2001 ducati monster 900 and when i try to turn it on it chucks but it doesnt turn on ? Help ?

Nice vdeos.... I done this before...all 👍

Brah whats that handlebar and where can I get it??

In a future video you mentioned the problem was a cheaper fix, was it greasing the shaft?
