7,500 Mile Service??? - Ducati.ms

I'm about due for mine. Who's gotten theirs done?

How much was it? Any idea what service exactly was performed at this interval?

I think it means its time to do the cams, HC pistons, oil change & valves
for almost the same charge as the service! (labor) then it'll feel like
you spent your MONEY on "something!"

LOL Alex

Dunno. I was about to schedule mine when I totaled my bike! It cost me about the same to settle with the insruance company and start over with a Hyper with only 450 miles on it as I would have paid for the service. If I continue this way I may never need a 7,500 mile service

Never thought of it that way......a rather "unique" way to avoid the dreaded 7500mi service!

I've known the GM of my local dealership for a long time. He sold me the service plan for 1300.00 (half price). I was not that excited about it at the time but its free services to 70,000 miles.

Now, right there is a good businessman.

LOL, with that plan he's probably one of those "I can't get any credit" businesses. Oh wait, I do give my friends free clothing so I guess I'm just as guilty.

Regardless, I'm going the "hyperduc avoid service" method and should be ready to crash in just about 1500 miles

Think I'll get a black one next time.

Well, after owning a couple Harley's it prob won't bother me. I'm used to paying those prices. Although, my Harley's were in the shop a lot less than my Hyper. Kinda funny.
