Mine stripped out really easily too.  They are now two of the many bolts I'm super careful about removing and tightening.

On the plus side, Moto Corsa had them in stock and I have them waiting for you.

Oh, and the dropping the valve, that's why you take the belt off and turn it to TDC.  You can still measure everything but they can't drop in when you take the keeper off.

I'll swing by tomorrow and get those from you and you can tell me how to get the stripped ones out  [cheeky]

Oh, and it took me 14.5 hours including 2 trips for shims.

BUT I did score a gauge face off a defunct gauge cluster!!!

It's not the end of the world if you do drop a valve. Those itty bitty magnet pickup tools are good, or try putting compressed air to the spark plug hole to pop it back up the guide.

Did you ever watch the vids on that DIY video from ducati tech that I left at your place???
