It's mostly labour charge, which the Japs give you for free at a first service as there is so little to do.
You now have an exotic Italian Desmo-valved engine which needs a bit more care......
I knew how much the services were before I bought the bike. I did my homework so I could be sure that (a) I could afford the extra service costs Ducatis rack up and (b) I wasn't surprised by it!
FWIW, my reciept breaks down as
1.2hrs labour @ £47.50 = £57.00
Oil filter = £6.71
3l fully Synthetic oil = £26.04
Environmental oil disposal charge = £2.45
TOTAL = £92.20
+ VAT = £16.14
GRAND TOTAL = £108.34
Expect the 7.5k/1 year service to be £200+, and the 15k/2yr service to be £350-ish as it's time for new belts by then, and that MUST be done right
