yeah - maybe I should clarify what I mean by saying soon....lol

I'm already at 5k miles on the bike....

when I say I ride A LOT, I mean A LOT on a regular basis....like a thousand miles a week.....

all the service should be the normal ducati service for a 2v air cooled motor.....which is as you say and as I mentioned....

12,000 miles OR every 2 years on the belts....

the normal valve job is every 6k miles....

I'm absolutely loving the bike

it's a big change from the 750 sport.....

all of the changed and additions make a BIG difference in the way I feel on the bike....it's just confidence inspiring....on the 750 I had about a half of an inch on either side of chicken strip....within the first day on this thing I'm down to almost none...lol

granted it is a bigger tire, but still.....I just feel like I can lean the bike further and feel comfortable doing it....not to mention the added braking over the sports lame braking...lol
