Great Video! I got my Monster one month ago. Good to see there are vloggers like you, uploading these kind of videos. I hope you can help me with another "problem" as well (maybe) My Ducati dealer is far away and I don't want to ride there for this simple question: I know I can adjust the seat.. But i forgot to ask them how.. Could you help me out? I found the distance bricks under my seat and removed them and changed the position of the front pin to the lower position but the seat has to be bend extremely to fit the locking mechanism if I just so this.. That can't be right I think.. I hope you could help me.. Greetings from Germany ✌🏻️ And thank you!
+Pleumel There are little plastic pieces up front on each side that you have to remove in order to lower the seat. They are just help by couple of screws. Once you look, you'll see what I mean. Otherwise, I can take a photo or two. How is weather in Germany? Warm enough yet to ride? Thanks for kinds words and watching!
+Ducati NYC Vlog I just washed it a little bit after I made a huge mess with chain cleaning. I don't know what's up with that but by the time I am done with the chain there is a huge mess everywhere.
So glad I came across this... While cleaning my chain on my 821, I noticed more slack then normal. Do I measure the distance while holding down the chain or while its at rest? Thanks so much for posting this... Very helpful.
Not sure if you have user manual but there is link to it in video description that explains what you need to do - but you are supposed to push down on the chain, release it then measure.
Very helpful. Thank you. A couple of questions: In this video, it looks like the chain is a little tight. Does turning the adjuster bolt clockwise loosen the chain (it looks like it moves the axle toward the center of the bike)? Also, I've seen a couple of other videos where they put a screwdriver between the chain and the sprocket before tightening; I'm assuming this isn't necessary on this type of adjuster because there is no locking bolt. Finally, I have a 2022 Ducati Scrambler Icon, and I believe the rear axle nut is 30mm. Can anyone confirm? Thanks again!
Hello, I have a 2022 scrambler 1100 and the system is the same as your motorcycle. Once the chain tension has been adjusted and the central nut tightened, I don't know how to tighten the side adjustment screws to 10 Nw as the manual says. In your video you have not tightened them at the end. What is done with them, are they left free? Thx!
after adjusting the tension of my chain there is a big hard point when I turn the chain you think it is the chain kit which is dead or there is another problem cordially
I bought bunch of wrench and socket home, just after watched your video.😂😂😂, btw, is it just any normal 36mm 12 point socket can do for 821 rear wheel? its really hard to find that one.
+Hold Fast Films Having high quality vids says a lot about someone. It's sets your channel apart from the shovel ware. Besides, the quality stuff always rise to the top. #standards
It is a very nice bike but I usually refrain from recommending things like this because it is a very personal things and a large investment. What I think is good might be completely different from your point of view. I can say that I have not a single regret buying it!
Ducatisti the UK model has the same description in the manual. I have been trying to figure out what it means, does it mean a defection of between 28 and 30 mm?
Great Video!

Very clear instructions and I love the manual cuts into the video, thank you.
Perfect! Exactly what I needed to know. Even the size of the socket (36mm).
Make sure it's a triple-square. There is a link in the video description.
Kudos!
Thanks from the Netherlands! Adjusted my chain first time this morning with the help of your vid!
Awesome! Glad it was helpful.
According to the user manual, the bike should be placed on the side stand. But still a great video 👍
The best 821 how to videos. Thanks as always.
Thanks for the quality vid! I really love my 821 dark... But man those red rims pop 👌
Thanks man! Those wheels pop even more when they are clean haha!
Thanks for the great video. I'm not much of a "wrencher" but I figured I ought to at least be able to adjust my own chain! This was perfect.
Awesome. Glad it was helpful!
Thanks a lot! It really helped my boss!! Greetings from Guayaqui, Ecuador, South America !
Glad it was helpful!
Bike is looking crispy in the vid. Makes me want to go wash my bike right now - just rode in a damn thunderstorm.

@@HoldFastFilms what’s the point of pushing down the chain with finger if you are supposed to measure when you release it?

"Make sure both sides are even" *shows both sides are off a bit...😅 thanks for the vid, my friend asked me for help, I found this vid to show him! 👍🏼

Doesn`t it have to be meassured while on the side stand? Else it might be too tight.

Sorry, but the description says, use the side stand, why did you use it?...
Great vidéo and great channel.
You've on more subscriber !
I've got the 796 but yours stay beautiful :)

Hey man! Thanks for watching and nice words! Belgium seems to have a lot of Ducati guys!

I love your Clear clutch cover what a beautiful piece !

Overproducing, one video at the time.

CLUTCH1st VLOGS I'm like Bernie Sanders of motorcycle videos on TH-cam #sharingiscaring
+Hold Fast Films Hell yea you are. I mean, that's pretty much why I watch your stuff :P
Very good video!
nice vid!
Thanks bruh
Measurements need to be made on the side stand, otherwise no weight on the swinging arm.
Would you recommend buying a 821 ? I'am really thinking about buying one !
It is a very nice bike but I usually refrain from recommending things like this because it is a very personal things and a large investment. What I think is good might be completely different from your point of view. I can say that I have not a single regret buying it!
no regrets that's what i was looking for :) thx
must i thighten the swinging arm screws, when i thighten the wheelshaft with the correct torque, leftsided or rightsided?
Hans Koothrappali I saw this in the manual too. It doesn’t make much sense to torque the adjuster screws. I don’t understand why they say that.
In my German manual from the 2016 model it said 28-30mm. Weird!! I set it to around 29mm. Took me ages btw.
It's the same with my 2015 manual (swedish).
Ducatisti the UK model has the same description in the manual. I have been trying to figure out what it means, does it mean a defection of between 28 and 30 mm?
My English manual for 2019 says 28-30 mm, it’s probably different for different years.
Mark With The manual says to press down on the chain and then release and take the measurement. So not really a deflection of 30mm
Great video man ;) !!!!!
Thanks as always man!
Same spec for 1200?
Great. Thanks 👍
+Christian Schneidt Thank you! Glad you found it useful.
is there something i do wrong? i cant make the 36 mm socket fit :-/
Which socket do you have?
+Hold Fast Films haha nvm - i tryed a 6 pt :-/ need to buy a 12 pt
Ripcurl6 I have the link to the one you need in video notes. Yes, 12pt or triple-square is what you need.
Thanks for all the videos! :) It is really usefull! Keep em comming!
1:41, 145 Nm, in my Ducati Monster 821 book it says 180 Nm
Goratchthemule my book says 180 Nm as well, 2019 Monster 821 Dark. It’s probably different for earlier years.
@@esfastes ill guaranty if you do 145 nm or 180 nm youll break everything . This is an error . 100 nm is enough
For scrambler ???
Perfecto.
Volevi spiegare qualcosa?
