Title: DUCATI FUEL FILTER
Post by: GWL on August 25, 2009, 06:00:43 PM
I have just bought a Ducati fuel filter for my Tiger. I know people sometimes use BMW filters but wasn't sure if anyone knew about the Ducati ones as well.It only cost £9.00 whereas the Triumph one was £24.00. Whats even better is that I got it from my Triumph dealer!!  (who also happens to be a Ducati dealer too). everyone will probabaly say "yeah we knew that, its old news" but just in case you didn't I thought I'd share it with you. :D
perhaps I'll start to ride like Nicky Hayden now! :ImaPoser

That's really cheap. Even the BMW supplied ones are around £13..I think. Good to know . Thanks.

Fuel filters are £9.98 from Triumph online, but then there is the postage.
That is where I got mine along with a lot of other stuff so I have no idea exactly how much the postage would be on just the filter.

Well spotted Outrunner you're quite right. I've just been on the site and it looks like postage is free too! Makes the dealer price even more of a rip off at £24. I don't mind anyone making an honest profit, after all they are in business to make a living, but thats just taking the p...
