Yellow, not the fastest color...just the most fun.

I've searched and can't seem to find info on what exactly is done during a 6000 mile serviceon a 2-valve.  Anyone have an idea?

Thanks in advance.

Valve clearance checked and adjusted, oil and filter change, possibly throttle body/carb sync depending on who's doing the service.

Also depends on the age of the bike, if it's more than 2 years old, or 2 years since the belts were last changed, then new belts.

More info later....

Much cheaper to do the job yourself, plus you will know it is done right!  waytogo

Here is a maintenance schedule from ducatisuite.com that is a very good guide.

I was considering doing it myself but my bike is still in warranty so I would want someone who knows how to spot warranty issues to look at my bike cuz I certainly can't.  Also I don't ride that often so the cost isn't too bad even if someone else is doing it.  If I do ever do it myself it would be more for the experience than anything else.
