Re: Ducati servicing
I might borrow them off you please mate, KJM just quoted me £600 plus for a service/belt change.Rich365 wrote:By the way if anyone wants to do there own belts you can borrow my crank turning tool and locking pins makes it even easier
So will probably just do it myself.
Just need to get the belts now

Re: Ducati servicing
Bloody hell - owning a Ducati is complicated - serviced my CB1000R yesterday - oil & filter then adjust and lube chain - clean the bike ! - Honda - press and go !
I do like Ducatis but they do seem to need a lot of tlc

Just put the Same thing in my watch list. I refuse to pay those prices for something I can do for under £100.jimmytanko wrote:Ordered a full service kit (minus the oil) for £88 off eBay, Inc belts filters etc. So think weds afternoon is set aside for doing it all with good old rumpoldstiltskin (will)

Re: Ducati servicing
10/40w seems to be the norm on the forums. Personally I'm going to stick some power 1 in it.jimmytanko wrote:Any idea what the recommended oil is for yours pete?

Re: Ducati servicing
You have to do oil and filter? Pffft... What a waste of time... just use the bus, no maintenance on themSoviet wrote:Bloody hell - owning a Ducati is complicated - serviced my CB1000R yesterday - oil & filter then adjust and lube chain - clean the bike ! - Honda - press and go !

mine seems completely unsuitable but looks like the original part.
Trying to find info on a better replacement but no joy as yet

Re: Ducati servicing
Mine is the standard part that's for sure, my only complaint is that it holds the bike almost completely vertical! Daren't leave it alone in a slight breeze haha!jimmytanko wrote:And is your side stand about as much use as a chocolate fireguard?Loose Sprockets wrote:10/40w seems to be the norm on the forums.
