yes you can replace a valve spring cover for a Desmo cover .
but there are other ways of I.D. ing a Desmo head
it is a differend casting : the tunnel where the camshaft in turns extends
deeper down to make room for the closer rockerarms

Hi tf,

The word 'Desmo' is cast in to the left side cam cover (along with the cc).

Can't find a photo now to show you what I mean, but it's pretty obvious in reality.

Ciao

hmm, I think that I have seen those. Cant find a photo either.
However, is it possible to replace the cam cover ...

Im curious, without a sticker that reads 'desmo', is there a way to tell if a single is a desmo or not? Is there something on the head, or on the serial numbers maybe? I havent a clue, Im pretty new to Ducatis.
Thanks, tf

Is it possible to convert a 'sebring' or 'diana' engine to a faster version such as a 'mach 1'?
If so, is it just a matter of changing out some internals, or are the cases actually different as well?

I am interested, please shoot me an email....

If you have something I may be interested in, please try to get ...
