i personally think the service/part cost thing is absolute b*ll*cks. servicing a 2V ducati is not difficult even for someone with no previous mechanical knowledge. id go as far to say is easier than a lot of bikes due to the ease of accessibility of the belts and clutch etc.
i say go for what you want straight away and as big as you want. otherwise you will be disappointed.
my first bike was a 900ss but dont forget CC means nothing as a modern 4cyl 600 will outperform most ducati 2v twins in everything but style and soul.
