I got my 600 mile service done yesterday (I had a little over 700 on the bike when I pulled in to the dealer's lot). For the record, and since we get people here who ask sometimes, it was $220. Ducati says it's 1.2 hours of labor, and this dealer had a $109 / hour labor rate. That plus the oil and filter cost was it.
That said:
That's still pretty expensive. I ended up doing it there instead of doing it myself because right now I don't have a way to reset the service indicator. Oil change and checking torque I can do it my sleep. I have a feeling that sooner or later I'll end up with a Rexxer unit, but not until I pick an exhaust.
So my question: is there another easy (or cheap) way to reset service indicators ourselves? I know I don't need to worry about it again until the first desmo service, but I was curious.
And now I can finally exceed that annoying 6k RPM limit.
