Anyway, what about Timing belts. Theres a guy who worked for Alvins...Ducati technician...stays round the corner from us...ive got his number...works for himself now. I phoned him the other day and he said he will service Dukes at roughly half price. Cant be bad?

[Scottch]

Is that Brian P. you mean?

[Davieravie]

Aye

[Scottch]

Brian's a right good spud!

If there's no warranty concerns, I wouldn't hesitate in using him at all.

Absolutely!

He wasn't just any mechanic at Alvins, he was the workshop foreman/chief technician and factory trained too.

And he was there up until early this year I think (maybe late last year?), so should still be up-to-date on Ducati training.
