That one sounded a good idea Keefy. Checked but the transponder is still firmly attached where its meant to be.

The bike is booked for collection on Wednesday by the local dealer (Ducati Wolverhampton) who can't even look at it for three weeks due to the amount of work they have on! Then they've got to get the part...s etc.

It's a 3 year old Sportclassic with less than 1000 miles on the clock which I'd only bought privately with no warrenty a couple of days before it packed up. It's back to the old tried and trusted 916 I think - getting too bl**dy technical these new Ducatis. I was hoping to get the 1000 well run in before the TT but that's not looking likely now
