Motorbike service

Moto2

IIRC the only parts that need replacing on the 7,500 service are oil, filter, spark plugs
The 15k one is the biggie

Actually, according to that manual that you can easily download if you look for it, the only things to replace @ 7500 are plugs, oil & filter, the only extras to replace as well @ 15,000 are change brake fluid & lubricate steering head bearings.

There are loads of check & inspects, but really, you should be checking most of these pretty much all the time anyway, like the chain, tyres, brakepads, oilleaks, bakelight switches.

I went in to get a small tub of brake grease for my Suzuki Bandit and came away with a Ducati. No regrets, but it was embarrassing how I was played by the dealer.

Been there, done that, although I didn't get played. I did get in trouble at home though!

Well, I say 'played'. I was hanging round the showroom waiting for the parts guy, and the sales guy threw me a set of keys, nodded at the Ducati, and said 'why not take it for a spin while you are waiting?' It would have been rude not to. Five miles and a lot of corners later ... kerching!


Not so much played as known too well.

A good salesman with a good product to sell is a very dangerous thing.....
