Anyone know a where I should get it serviced, say within 100 miles. Or do I need to stick with a ducati deaker for warrenty reasons???????????????

This is one of the drawbacks of owning a Ducati - Servicing costs at an authorised Ducati dealer are very high; even my little 620ie costs around £400 for a 12,000 mile service. I am not convinced that these high costs are justified, but you must have a full proper service history or the resale value of your bike will be serverely reduced.

If you want low cost motorcycling - DON'T buy a Ducati!!!!
