Hi everyone, I've bought a new "Rearward" handlebar for my 2017, XDiavel and am in the process of fitting them. Anyway that's the plan.
I have to remove a clip on each side that retain the switches, apparently using Ducati tool number 88713.4967 Does anyone have a picture of this tool and/or a picture of the retaining clip so I can see how to make a tool or how they release please. I'm talking about item D3 in the slot D2 in the photo.
Thanks in advance, Mike (Warwickshire, UK)

Have a look at my video… around 6 mins in you don’t need a special tool…👍

you do not need a special tool. You can slide a small hex head allen key in there that will release the locking tab. That is the way that I did it when I installed my rearward bars last year

Same as above no special tools needed.

I couldn't believe it, but a YouTube search found an XDiavel handlebar removal video that was a lifesaver for me. I remember it was from England, so perhaps the link above is the same one. Thank you Enoch !!

The video was certainly from in the UK. It's served me very well thanks for the forum..
