Title: Throttle body to engine oetiker flame loose on my v7 stone
Post by: UnpotatoedSalmon on September 08, 2025, 08:59:18 PM

I was cleaning my bike when I noticed the clamp nearly loose on one side of the bike, I do not know how to remove the oetiker 545 clamp

If it's loose, spin it around until you see the main clamping mechanism. If it's the same clamp as on my Audace (see pic), you can pry it off with a flat blade screwdriver. If it's as loose as you say, you may not even need to do this.

You are not supposed to re-use them, but it may be possible depending on the condition of the clamp.

If you prefer you can get narrow worm drive clamps and replace the stickers.

I had a difficult time finding traditional clamps narrow enough (7mm) and large enough diameter (60mm).

I really do not like thos Oetiker at clamps at all.
I replaced some of them on my V85 TT with the classic Guzzi clamps (meanwhile hard to get) and with one from KTM
