  • 15,000 miles on the bike... time to rip it apart and make sure everything is all good. The cost of owning a Ducati. Went to Motorsport Exotica for the service. This is a little look into all that it has to go through. No wonder it’s costly. But it’s running great. Thank you Jarred, Sean, and Jacob for doing a great job.

      @Jimmy Doran YOU ... HEARD ... WRONG.
      I have an '05 Monster 620. The belts and valve check are every 7,500 miles or two years, whichever is first. On my bike it's not that invasive of a service check, the benefit of an air-cooled engine. On water-cooled it's more time consuming since you have to remove the radiator to get to the horizontal cylinder. The newer the Ducati, the longer that valve check has become. Some aren't even by years anymore, it's purely mileage, 15,000 to 18,000 miles depending on the bike. So yeah, your information wasn't just wrong, but dead fucking wrong.

    This is the single best video that convinced me I never want to actually own a Ducati. Seems quite ironic that they're working on a BMW right next to this. On the boxer twin to access the valves, you kneel down and unbolt the valve cover! To just access the valve covers on the Ducati you have to disassemble much of the bike and it takes about 2-3 hours. Though probably on an air cooled naked bike like a Monster or a gt1000 is probably much simpler? I hope.

      @AT2Productions 4 роки тому +6

      @Jimmy Doran Thank you for perpetuating a now myth with the post-2005/6 vintage engines. The original cause of this myth was the recommended service interval for the valve check on the mid-to-late 90's era engines, that's no longer the case. Current engines are ~9,000 miles (or annually) for oil changes and ~18,000 miles for the valve check, those used to be at 7,500 miles (depending on the engine). And yes, like all other bikes, new models end up with recall work. But the stigma of unreliable came from those desmo services and Ducati owners initially being affluent people who didn't mind paying the money for a shop to do every single bit of maintenance work. Don't buy into the hype, get some knowledge first.

Figured, while I’ve got the tank apart replace the filter. Then figured, while I’ve got the tank off to go ahead and replace vertical and horizontal belts. Oil change and plugs wasn’t that long ago.
