Tech posting tips

[Duck-Stew]

There are a group of tech-saavy Ducatisti here who will gladly help you out.  You can make it easier for them (and ensure that you get assistance) by doing the following.

- ONLY post in Tech.  Please do not ask the same question in five different forums on the board.

- Use a descriptive title, i.e.: "99 m900 backfiring".  Don't just title your thread "Help me!"

- Include the year, engine size, & mileage of your bike and any accessories/mods that may be suspect.

- Mention if your bike is in warranty.

- Give some indication of your mechanical knowledge and situation.  Are you trying to rebuild an engine yourself, but can't brew coffee?  Or are you trying to figure out if your dealer is correct in their assessment?  Or are you a long-time wrench who just needs some specific advice?

These tips should help you get the information you need.  We can't guarantee that we have an answer, but we'll try our best.
