Don't know about the servicing cost, I presume it depends on what you negotiate when you buy the bike but I've heard Ducati have withdrawn their free first service policy... although someone might want to correct me on that. As for the white oil... make sure you're not losing any coolant - if the coolant level is dropping then you've got an internal leak somewhere and it needs to be sorted asap, but most likely scenario is like what's already been said about condensation. If it's just a thin white film on the glass then it's not worth worrying about, but if you notice big gloopy bits in the oil then oil and filter change quick smart because it'll degrade the lubrication qualities of the oil. Make sure you point it out to the mechanic when it goes in for service, he should recognise if it's excessive. nb [Edited on 30-11-2003 by NBs996] |
