Thanks everybody for the advice!  I now know that it's not something to take my chances with.  I'll get the belts and oil done ASAP.  As for the gas and tires, they're okay.  As one of you suspected, the bike has been ridden regularly, just not a lot.  I bought it a few months ago from someone who had two bikes and just wasn't putting the miles on the Monster.

Where can I find info on doing the belts myself?

'04 S4R (996 Motor)
-Arrow CF Exhaust
-RaceTech Gold Valve suspension F/R
-Precious little else because I like what Ducati came up with
