Ducati Darmah difficulty starting when hot!

I have a nice Ducati Darmah in the garage at the moment, with starting and kick back issues.

The agreed upon plan is to test the ignition advance, the pickups and basically all the ignition components, plus change the oil, filter and brake fluid!

Removing the left hand engine cover was complicated by haynes "just loosen all the hex bolts" and the real Ducati manual saying you have to remove the starter motor chain before pulling the cover off! Also the real manual says you are supposed to NOT remove one the hex bolts as it holds the pickups in place!

Oh well it can only go better from here.
