At what point do you call it done?

The ride to work this morning was a good one. The ride home was a good one up until I hit some traffic and the bike stalled out four make the beast with two backsing times in less than one mile when coming to stops. I really don't need this shit.

huh? i get the gist of what you're saying though, there's definitely something that needs to get sorted out... didn't you already take it to AMS too?
maybe you should go find a nice older 900 or something...

"make the beast with two backsing" Silly language filter.
Yes I did take it to AMS back in December/January and have had no issues up until yesterday afternoon. Their diagnosis was a leaky exhaust connection around the verticle pipe that appeared only at high temperatures and replaced the metal fiber donut. It has been about 1500 miles since then and I haven't touched the exhaust system nor have had any stalling issues. It has been running the best it ever has since I've owned it.
I rode into work this morning and had no issues and was intentionally rolling 100% off of the gas when I came to stops to see if it replicated. Temperature barely crested 200F when I parked it. Yesterday was the first day of 90+ temperatures, so it'll be interesting to see what happens this afternoon. The oil temperature wasn't too high either at 258F max.
If the same crap happens then it'll go into the shop for the last time and I'll seriously consider selling it and pocketing the money.

You just need some powerful MOJO to counter the spell that you and your bike are under. Here's a quick and easy recipe for some HOME MADE BRUJERIA (MOJO). You'll see you will leave all your bike worries behind after performing this quick and easy ritual.
ITEMS YOU NEED:
One raw egg
Drinking glass
A phone
Instructions:
Take 1 uncooked EGG
Pass the egg in a sweeping motion around your entire bike
Crack the shell and pour the egg into a clear drinking glass
Chant in a low tone :
"Me vale madre."
3 times
After chanting drink the egg
Watch for Salmonella poisining over the next 24 hours
You'll see that while your puking your guts out and rushing to the hospital the bike will be the least of your worries.

Hey, I managed to get into the apartment complex before it stalled out! Helped that I left early to avoid the traffic backup and hit green lights at the two turns.
AMS says:
TPS or Coils
Lunsford says:
reflash the ECU depending on model year and should have been sent a notice from DNA if my bike was affected. Think the guy was a bit hard of hearing or there was too much background noise.
Joe you can keep your salmonella.

New plugs. TB sync. Idle set to 1300 instead of 1100. Explanation was gas blend is causing problems for all of the newer Ducati's. All appears fixed for now.
Now for the dichotomy of the pocket book and the heart.
