I thought that there is one more tip worth sharing:
on Ducati forums we have lubrication specialist (georgemts) who answers questions regarding oil and filtration and provides recommendations. One of these is to put several neodymium magnets on the oil filter to catch all fine ferrous particles created as a result of normal wear (mostly transmission). These are fine enough to get through filter and increase wear of engine.
This is based on fact and actual cutting of the filter to check for accumulation of particles.
I have ring of 8 neodymium magnets surrounding base of the oil filter, which I move to new filter on every change. These are strong enough to stay on the filter even during most spirited riding.
Just one more trick to protect and extend life of an engine.
