Hi,
New to the forum
Recently bought a DB8 and promptly damaged the speed sensor which attaches to the rear disc carrier, and the wiring coming from it.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a replacement? A dealer, or alternate supplier.

Thanks

Paolo of BimotaClassicParts can get them....just google it...hes in Italy and speaks/reads english....just make sure you send him pictures of which one it is as there were 2 types....you have koso clocks and they do sensors but I think Bimota used a different type....Now we need pictures of your bike...and an explanation of just how you damaged something thats so hidden away.....

Thanks. Will contact Paolo once I have photo.
Damage caused by the paddock stand shearing off the sensor head when I lift the bike without seeing the sensor had moved out from its normal position. The grub screw had come loose. The bobbin on the right is located very close the sensor.

I will need to get a manual as I will have to pull off the tank to follow the wiring from the sensor through to its connection to the wiring harness. I will get one from Paolo.
Appreciate your assistance
