Hi Floyd, just joined up on this Forum as been browsing for couple years, and thought it was done thing to sign up and get involved..have got a Gen 2 2007 that is playing up and keeps cutting out:banghead..I ran the tank to real empty and I think it could be the filter blocked causing the problem? Have lifted tank and checked hoses and also tested battery etc. Just wondered if the symptoms you had were the same (ie) it starts up and runs for about 1min if you give it throttle and take a run out splutters a bit,but as soon as you come to idle it cuts :dunno...hope you can help out, or point us in the right direction..cheers Dave
hi mate, check out my other post (2 weeks owner problems) im new to the tuono myself, id change the fuel filter, get one of ebay, the ducati one is the same and cheaper. all ican say is make sure the breather pipes are on correct when you get it all together, i sprayed all my electrical connecters aswell. its running right at the moment no probs its going to take a while before i get confidence back in it. il send you my number give me a ring and il help if i can.
