Although the bikes should come from the factory with the EFi set properly, this might be the problem you have?
Ducati UK's ASM Andy Joyce eventually sorted it out - and he was a right wizz with the computer and the bike went like a rocket afterwards... did take him 2 and a half hours to set it up though...

Here's an update. Remember, I'm not technically minded. Pegasus have played around a bit, and have ordered some parts from Ducati. They have run a compression test and one of the cylinders is low. They have ordered a new barrel and hopefully I will have my bike back at the weekend.
I'm beginning to wonder if buying Italian was such a good idea. I can't win though. My shopping list was all Italian this time round - Ducati, Aprilia, Benelli, or MV Agusta, so I reckon I'd have had quality issues whichever way I went!
I have had the bike for 4 weeks, and have had 12 days riding out of it, so I can't complain really. As long as it's fixed by next spring I will be happy.
I can recommend Triumph if anyone is looking for a new bike. They are reliable and the after sales service is reasonably priced and excellent quality.
I'll keep you posted on developments with my Monster.
