OK new pickups fitted ,, bike now runs on both cylinders at 3000rpm BUT will not run below 3000 rpm on both cylinders it spits back ,, I know the carbs are fine its a timing issue but static timing is spot on and air gap is 0.7mm , I have a Draper strobe but it wont work on Ducati , but does on my car and a Yamaha 600??? also the pickup cables are still back to front to make the bike run

Interserting fact is that official Ducati wiring diagram for my bike based on VIN number and wiring colours is for fuel injection model year 2000,, but my bike is year 2000 carby model,, Ducati say that I should use model year 1998-1999 wiring diagram in that case but its missing the carb heaters of my years bike and the colour codes are different for the igniters and coils ????

weirder and weirder

Im sure the timing is not right but I cant see how , I have set it up same as my other 2 750 bikes

and without a strobe I cant tell if its advanced or retarded ..
