Home Soon - Servicing ?!

iraqman · 21-May-2006, 12:39

Will be home soon and back on the bike as of June 1st. (Sweet........ !!!)

I want to get the bike serviced (5k ish, belts an' all ) and set up correctly. I am in the Stamford/Peterborough area and heard a lot of good reports about Italia Moto - anyone heard different ?!

Also Riverside in Northampton - but cant find any recent stuff on them.

I will be fitting a new air filter and open clutch cover/new plate as well - should i do this before the service ?? Or wont it make any difference !

Opinions and suggestions appreciated.

(hope ur enjoying the BMF !)

BSD - where are they ?! Are they Ducati ?!

In the past I've always used Italia in Lincoln, very happy with their work and prices they charge. All I would say is get it booked in now .... there is a 4 or more week waiting list for service work.

4 WEEKS - sh#t - i'll give 'em a call tmrw. Thant can only mean that they offer first class service and prices if so many people are using them !

Anyone know if Riverside (Northampton) are still about !

They are in Eye Green just off the A47 east of Peterboghorror.They are not a Ducati agent but Boss man Mark is a long time Ducati owner and has a good reputation.(Most of the bike mags use them)
ItaliaMoto are a great bunch of lads,I use them all the time.

Eye Green - are they located with Webbs Yamaha ??

Will try Italia first - if its going to take a while to fit me in i'll start looking at the other suggestions.

Cheers lads
