Thanks Stevie but as you can see Google Translate (and all the others) are not that good!.........hence I was after a fluent English/French speaker ;-) As I said, I can work out the gist but I'd like an actual translation.
Ran it past our resident French speaker here, she's a little confused as to what extra information you're expecting to get from a full translation!
It says: "I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty headed animal food trough wiper. I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries." and "You don't frighten us, English pig dogs. Go and boil your bottoms, you sons of a silly person. I blow my nose at you, so-called "Arthur King," you and all your silly English K-nig-hts."
The only difference between Steve's attempt to help you and an actual translation would be that Bougies are spark plugs and not candles
Ok, thanks.......but does ENTRETIEN TRANSPARENT really mean "Clear Maintenance"?....that sounds like a literal translation rather than the actual intended meaning? That's the trouble with translations, the translator has to understand the context. ......just the pedant in me! lol I have a doc I want to add to my website: tps-bareme-entretien.pdf - www.mts1200.info/mts12_faq/mts1200_docs/ducati_service_scales_tps-bareme-entretien.pdf ...but it's the French version.
Cometh the hour, cometh the man, blah blah. It says (from your resident fluent French speaker): NO HIDDEN COSTS MAINTENANCE Time on vouchers for preventative scheduled maintenance on Ducati motorcycles carried out according to the prescribed methods in the use and maintenance manual. Time is calculated in tenths of an hour (0.1 hours = 6 minutes). OIL SERVICE – Includes oil and oil filter replacement ANNUAL SERVICE - – Includes oil and oil filter replacement DESMO SERVICE - – Includes oil and oil filter replacement + check and/or adjustment of valve clearances Brake fluid – fork oil - coolant – every 36 months Air filter – Spark plugs - every 24000 km Fork oil - Timing belts - every 24000 km / 60 months Dealer hourly labour cost:
In other words - just as expensive as everywhere else - if not more so - come on over the price is wrong - translation - stay at home.
lol Thank you gliddofglood .....sorry, forgot to ask, any idea on what tps-bareme-entretien means (the original pdf title)?
tps ............is the abbreviation for temps or in english time temps bareme entretien means the time they ( Ducati ) have allocated for each part of the scheduled service.
