« on: December 02, 2011, 07:44:47 pm »
Does anyone know where i could find a 10mm (C size plug ) decomp release that could be used on 450 Ducati? Are there universal ones available these days still?

They were metric thread? I will have a look on ebay. Tried before but only saw them for chainsaws with no indication of thread size.

Well i could not find any 10mm ones on the Vulcan site. Just looked like they had 10mm converters to convert 10mm to 14mm with an extension. Maybe i was looking in wrong area though. I need it to screw directly into a RT450 which is 10mm. I think an extension may make it stick out too far out the side of the motor and look ugly?

The Italian Scrambler club   Amici Dello Scrambler has these things remade .
