"Model year 2007 early release", could not be more earlier..

Anyway, looks like big bore (bigger bore and shorter stroke) 620!

I had read about that on www.raptorsandrockets.com in the news section a couple of days ago....they say the April bikes will be throughout Europe and the rest of the world might have to wait till late in the year.....so we'll see...either way...it is a step in the right direction I think in making their starter machine as it were more attractive and this might hopefully mean they are going to do something along the same lines to the other motors like 1000ds maybe!....<hint hint-Ducati are ya listening?>(as Micheal Battman would say!)

Extended service plan, could it be we won't need 6,000 mile servicing for desmos in the future.......

Ducati say; "Every new Monster 695 owner will also benefit from the latest extended service plan: the first complete service isn’t required until 12.000 km (7.500 miles)."

Is this the first service or the first 'complete' service??

Nah, they would require an oil/filer change and general look see before that 12K point.
