[Ducati] 12,000 mile maint for 900SSie

[Izaak]

Book rate is what you'll pay when you go to a Dealer, 999/1000 
times.  Around me, they will also tack on "storage" fees if you leave 
it there more than a few days and "disposal" fees for the fuel they 
drain (and then put back in).

Independent shops are great -- if you have them around.  Maybe a good 
national list of independent shops who work on Ducs who don't suck? 
Sounds like a good thing for Ducati.net to have on it's site...
