Did you know that Ducati have changed the profile of the Oil Feed banjo bolts for the head to alterantor cover oil lines?
Common mod back in the day for racing 900SS was to change them to narrower bore to increase oil pressure at which oil returns and so avoid any potential oil starvation in the heads
If you buy NEW banjo bolts from Ducati (whether from Ducati UK or Stein Dinse) they have a changed profile on the thread tip to do this.
These are the brake ones that's front brake. I will dig out the oil ones to check in case unless you looked at previous ones on another. Thanks for heads up in case.
