I thought you said that you were going to be doing it all?

Nope, although I did buy a welder not so long ago...

Phil,
just out of interest are there any decent Ducati dealers/mechanics around Luton? I used to go to Wheels International In Hockliffe but it's no longer there and a mate of mine uses the dirt bike centre in Dunstable when he needs bits for his Aprilia. Wondered if there was anyone else around you'd recommend? I've tried Flitwick Motorcycles once or twice but they never seem all that helpful.
Cheers,
A.

Hi M8

No sorry there is not....i dont use anyone local......i have tried a few and they are not the best.....

I make the long trek to Nelly at Cornerspeed..........he has always looked after my 748r and has a spotless reputation amongst the DSC crowd, with many people travelling long distances to get work done.

Nelly can also order you bits in and is very quick at turning them round.

HTH

You should join in on a BHC run ..... we have regular meets in the summer...

Cheers

Phil
