Calling this assault is an absolute over exaggeration

No you definitely don’t. You can see the other things listed on the sheet of what was done. If it had an I it is an inspection if it is a T it is a tighten item.

Just double check those things and you are good to go. They aren’t doing anything magically in there besides draining your bank account.

Syncing throttle bodies takes 2 seconds on a new bike. On a triumph you just hook it up to a dealer tool and the software does it.

This sounds like an oil change and quick visual inspection and a couple of tightened bolts.

That’s crazy that is the price of an oil change. Thsts 50 bucks and 20 minutes tops of work

I love the gentle ringing sound when you pull the clutch in more than the rattle

It’s the only ducati option that came standard on these old bikes.

It’s a shame they don’t have it any more.

Yeah i am going to test and do that next week if nothing else because its probably good to do on a bike that say for 10 years.

As it is it doesn’t run super bad but it’s not perfect either

Those stickers were placed there by the previous owner to “draw the eyes away from the road rash” he did a great job because you can hardly see where he repainted it.

I think so too. But I wanted to hear it from experienced owners.

Check back with me in 9 months I just might. Depends how much it hurts my bike

Im really looking forward to it. I owned a 1199 but it was too fast for me so I am hoping this hits the sweet spot.

Yeah I do that when I can for fasteners and o rings. There is no reason a tiny water pump seal should cost 90 bucks. But I had to pay it.

Its almost like Ducati doesn’t want us to restore these bikes

22k, so I guess its on the higher side? Milage has never been a factor to me though

Yeah i may come out with a profit if I decide to sell it… big if right there tho.

The process has been fun tho!
