Time to dust off the cobwebs, plug in the battery tenders,
and get ready for the riding season.
And what better way to reacquaint yourself with your pride and joy than to give him/her a thorough going over with friends who think they
know what they're talking about?

It's time again for DESMO's annual Oil Spill at the Ducati Ranch in picturesque Dutchess County.
This year's Spill will be held on Sunday, April 18 with a rain date on the following Sunday, April 25.
Here's an opportunity to do all the basic maintenance you've been neglecting or wasn't sure how to do.
Oil will be changed (and hopefully not spilt on the Ranch's lovely garage floor), suspensions will be boinged, belts will be tightened, chains will be lubed, brakes will be bled, tails will be chopped, pizza will be eaten, bling will be installed, and other tasks that can be handled with a sledgehammer.
Have a new bit of kit and unsure how to get it on your bike?
There will be experts a plenty to help.
Frame sliders, chains, exhaust systems, wheels, tires, brakes, amongst other bits have been installed and tweaked in previous Spills.
|
This is a do-it-yourself event. There will be plenty of guidance and ridicule in equal measures from the peanut gallery, but please do not show up expecting a free overhaul of your bike by anyone except by yourself.

If you are interested in attending, cost is $10 for breakfast (bagels, donuts, coffee) and lunch (pizza, soda, water) per person.
You do not have to do maintenance (nor own a Ducati) to participate, but space is limited, so priority will be given to those with
Ducatis who need to perform maintenance. Remember, we're limited to a couple dozen people, so this event sells out quickly.
|
This year, the Oil Spill will be featuring Mobil 1 Racing 20W-50 full synthetic oil along with K&N oil filters.
You do not need to purchase oil from us to change your oil.
This is merely done as a convenience for those who may have trouble transporting a gallon of oil on a motorcycle.
You may also purchase additional amounts of oil or filters, to bring home for future use. We also have a limited supply of rear sprockets for sale. Please visit our
shop for details and availability.
