As for the 11S, I still haven't got around to looking at changing the gearbox oil or bevel box oil etc.
I did about 25k miles on my old VFR800FI and only ever did annual oil changes - I'm not convinced either the BMW or Ducati would be happy with that.
Seriously, belts are intimidating, but really easy. Check out the Allen key method on you tube.
11s. Fluids, time consuming because you have to do 3 lots, but again very straightforward, as are valve clearances and most of the other routine stuff.
Fuel filters a bit of a PITA

2 valve Ducati belts are a doddle, plenty of step by step You Tube videos and website step by step how to do its. Do it once and you'll wonder what all the fuss is about.
