Try clearing the codes and see if they reappear.  They may be old codes in memory that were never cleared.  If the codes come back, check primary and secondary resistance on your coils.  Are they stock?

Yeah all stock.Tried clearing them but they come back.Also ran checks on both coils and they passed?There are old codes in the history box that read something like signal below threshold.

One thing I noticed immediately, as far as I know, the DP Full race exhaust maintains the factory stubby headers, the pictures shown have a true full system, don't think that's Ducati or Termignoni.

Yeah..I own one too.  I have to agree with just about everyone that's posted here..  It's a really good bike.  Any shortcomings it might have are minor.  It was a budget-priced Ducati but you will never  have to be ashamed to park it beside any other bike.

Buy it.  You'll like it.   Grin

A Most Magnificent Monster

I just bought one a month ago!  Mine is a 2006 and had 15K on it.  Price was very reasonable and I had the valves adjusted...fluid and filters, chain and sprox, etc. I did myself.  The previous (and first) owner spent his money on a Zards system, K&N pods, PowerCommander, and a few other baubles (suspension and brakes still stock).   I think the power and brakes are outstanding enough for street use, but at 220 lbs, I need to change the springs.  

This you are looking at bike doesnt seem to need anything for the engine, so you can spend a few bucks to upgrade the suspension if you feel it necessary.  Just my opinion though, but back when I tracked/raced cars I always thought the most efficient expenditure for improving speed was to tune the driver.  A California Superbike School or Lee Parks course (or similar) will improve your speed more than anything you bolt on your bike.  Even better, it is completely transferable to any other bike you ever own!

If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for your 800?

I have no complaints. I'm taking mine to the track on Friday and I'll let you know how it does, but I doubt I'll be dissapointed.

Newer bike with more mods for less than I paid for my '05 800.  I'm to the point now where my friends on the I4 600s have to push to keep up with me and I'm 225 with undersprung forks and a fully stock motor.  Buy it.  Love it.

The right person on a 250 can easily smoke right by an I4 liter bike in the twisties. Wink

Saw it today. A girl was smoking by 600s on her 250 on the track. It was cool to watch.
