Getting more used to the bike after surviving the first week commute, especially low speed town riding (by keeping the revs around 3k rpm), the engine heat and findng neutral.

I could forsee total low speed control over time, but would be interested to see how big a difference a 14T front sproket makes in smoother progress.

Is it available officiailly from Ducati as a DP part? If so, how much does it cost to supply and fit? Preusmably if it's a DP part the warranty would not be invalidated and there will be no downside of this mod?
