Hey all! I'm new to the world of Ducati and motorcycles (at least on the road). I've got quite a few years of experience on dirt bikes but haven't done any riding on the road. I bought a 2005 Monster 620 with only 3600 miles on it back in May but haven't been able to get into a MSF class until August. So I haven't ridden it much yet until I take the course. I bought a helmet, jacket, gloves, and pants. I'll buy boots soon. Anything I should be looking at as far as maintenance items?
Welcome.
You should look into timing belts. If yours are original they've 'timed out'.
Tires also have a life besides tread life.
If those are original they should also be replaced.
Whereabouts in NH?
Ok, I'll have the timing belts looked at and replaced if needed. I was in the the Portsmouth area for a bit but will be away for a while.
