Ducati Pressure Plate Woe

[katie]

Hello folks. I replaced (upgraded) my pressure plate on a Duc. 749 and followed the specs (tightened springs/bolts to 5 Nm's). However, the clutch won't engage and stays in neutral. Has anyone had this problem or have any hot tips?

Thanks!

You may very well have air in your hydraulic clutch line. Try bleeding the line and see if that fixes the problem.

Thanks secret super hero. You probably realize this is Zach and that Katie is way smarter than to start wrenching on my bike! Haha.
