Welcome  [thumbsup]  I could be wrong, but I think all '05 620s are injected and have 6spds.   [Dolph]

All 620s are injected. There were some dark models that had a single front disk and 5 spd tranny - but I think in 05 and on they were just making dual disc 6 spd.. but no one is 100% sure sice Ducati kida did somethings one year, some another, but some cases spanned years...

For instance, early 05 620s had 4 piston calipers, 320mm rotors and steel tanks. Later 05 620s had 2 piston calipers 300mm rotors and plastic tanks. Both 05, but with some notable differences.

So welcome! Enjoy. I had a 05 Dark 620 and I do miss that little bike.
