- In this video, I take my bike for the 9000-mile service.
I go over:
- tips and tricks on making sure you get the most out of your service.
- how I got the reminder message on the display to inform me that the service was due.
- how the differences of being informed or not about the service being done, makes a difference on how you get treated.
- the best day of the week to go in for service and why.
- why it is better to be informed about the list that is supposed to be done at the service.
- how to stand out from other customers and how to become their priority when taking your bike in for service.
- why, if you can, not to leave your bike the day of service.
- how to ensure that the mechanic working on your bike will be sure to go over the long list
Lastly, I give examples on how this worked for me.

Good advice. Thanks for putting it out there.
Your spot on. It's good to be there keeping an eye on your bike.
It really makes a big difference when they know your there. It’s hard for them to take other projects on.
Thanks for commenting, ride safe.
Re: Tips, such as staying with the bike; asking questions without appearing too overbearing or needy; timing for when to take the bike in and the one thing that my father was famous for: not showing up empty-handed! In Latin America there's no such thing as a service or transaction that doesn't involve some "friendly persuasion". I used to balk at it, but he explained the "birds & the bees" about getting things done in a friendly fashion. OK - all that said, I really appreciate the advice, but I have one thing that has been nagging me since I began watching your videos.....the volume of the music!!!! I'm really quiet and I watch videos, especially the tutorial sort late at night. You have a very even voice, so when the music kicks in it's a BOOM!!! to my ears. Also; there's one part of the audio that I couldn't pick up: You mentioned something about tightening bolts(?) and he replied "Oh, yeah; I'll check" Please clarify - Thanks.
I apologize for the music , I’ll try to even that out.
You may be referring to the motor mounts. He mentioned that he would go over them to make sure they were torqued correctly.
Hope I answered your questions.
Thank you for commenting, ride safe.
@@myhypermotard8351 : Thanks for the rapid reply - torquing motor mounts sounds right. You are my go-to guy for Hyper info, and I really respect that you don't use any "lures" to your page...well other that Mr. Rambo. An aside: I'm saving up my "lunch money" so well that I've lost 16 pounds!! I had a doctor appointment day before yesterday and I was pleasantly shocked. I honestly hope that I can buy my bike from local Ducati dealer; I want to start out on a good foot with them; problem is that they have a reputation for inflated prices, so I bought my last bike in Fresno where they treated my like royalty.
@@Ramon51650 Thank you for the kind words.
Congratulations on your weight goal , it goes along way to be healthy plus you will feel better as well.
It’s too bad that your local shop is inflating prices , definitely not cool.
I hope you can find a way to make it work for you. Keep me updated, I’d like to know when you get yours so we can go over things if you need too.
Again, thank you..
@@myhypermotard8351 Are you going to install guards for your oil cooler and radiator?
@@Ramon51650 I thought about it, but really no bead for them. I have not seen any dings at all on them after so many miles.
Please sort your audio out. I struggled to hear what you were saying.
So how did you transport a fragile box with a dozen donuts on your bike? 🧐👀
I actually took them the day before when I went to pick something up at the shop. Trust me, they remembered me the next day. Gold service for sure.
Thanks for commenting, ride safe.
Audio sucks bro 😢
Yeah, sorry, didn’t have my mic with me., it gets better as it goes on.
