Sell it and buy another Yamaha, easy.
Funny guy. Motorcycles is motorcycles. Frame, motor, wheels, etc. Incremental extra cost I can swallow. But double? No parts were replaced. Checking/adjusting/lubricating isn't exactly high tech.Sell it and buy another Yamaha, easy.
It's a standard list of stuff you would do to any motorcycle on the break in service. There's no rocket science here. They checked/adjusted/lubricated/oil and filtered it just like any Yamahondakawazuki. Sure, it's a more expensive bike, but didn't we pay for that when we bought it?Can you list what they did?
Ya, good idea. I should have got a quote before so I could get my head around the rort beforehand. I will be getting a quote next time and doing my research.Mmmmm mine was expensive but not that much.im planning to ask for a quote befor I book my next one mainly so I don't get any surprises
I agree. I was just thinking that for 100 bucks less, I would still be shocked!the first service involves a very limited intervention. what you paid is a theft.
That’s pretty typical of his sarcastic responses. If I remember correctly mine was between $300-$400, but that also included a suspension adjustment.Funny guy. Motorcycles is motorcycles.

Nothing wrong with Yamaha BTW.
Anyway, this hasn't put me off the bike. But, I will be looking for alternatives for the next service.
I did my own oil change but they did the rest and it was like $150 Canadian. So something is WAY off!Took my SSS in for it's break-in 1000 km. service today. This is my first Duc. The bill was 590 bucks. :surprise: WTF. That is literally exactly double what it cost me for the same service on my Yamaha. I checked the paperwork on what they'd done. Nothing unusual. Oil/filter, check, lubricate, adjust, etc.
I expected to pay more, because, Ducati. But double? I guess that's what you sign up for when you go for the brand name. Only myself to blame.
Loving the bike though. :grin2:
