Anyone After A Desmo?

Discussion in 'D16 Desmosedici RR' started by bradders, Jun 5, 2015.

  1. They have a SL as well
     
  2. I take it that as it's got miles on the clock the 3 year service is ticking?
     
  3. Probably stopped ticking already
     
  4. Yeh, 2008 reg so well and truly out of time.
     
  5. I had a long chat with MR a few years ago re the servicing of Desmo, I was informed they aren't that much more than a Pani...However if you break one...:Woot:
     
  6. It's the big 15k service that's the killer - 20 odd hours of labour and probably 16 new valves at £90 each. Panni is cheap as chips by comparison I think.
     
  7. They lied....:Wideyed:
     
  8. I thought it was 40hrs labour
     
  9. Both the Desmo and SL belong to my mate Steve. Both very well cared for, and he's a Ducati enthusist. He came down to WDW with us on his Diavel, and gave it a final blast the France with a few of us a month or so back. He's just collected a new Multi, and does use his bikes, just didn't use the Desmo much! Well worth a punt if you want a pampered bike ;-)
     
  10. Could be
     
  11. Mine cost me £270 to service last time round. My 1098s was over £300.

    Why would it break? Using that logic, you'd never buy a house in case it fell down.
     
  12. Not a 15k service then ;)
     
  13. When it comes, it comes. I'm not losing sleep over it. :Cigar: Mine will be a 40 year old classic when I hit that milage in all probability anyway. :)
