Servicing in London

Any suggestions on where to get my 748 serviced in London? Please don't say Tecmoto!!!

Has anyone used Dave Robinson in Battersea recently? Would anyone recommend him?

Cheers in advance.

Mark

I've used Dave Robinson once about 3 years ago before switching to Cornerspeed up near Nottingham.

However, I have a friend with a 750ss (one careful female rider, honest!) who takes her bike to Dave Robinson all the time and recommends him highly.

My experience with bike servicing from Dave was OK, satisfactory, but nothing special.

Why not TecMoto, just out of interest?

I can highly recommend Dave Robinson. He really knows his Ducatis and has looked after me and my bike(s) over the years. He always seems to have time to fit my 'emergencies' in. And the idle conversations we have when I drop the bike off or pick it up are always educational and enlightening. A real gent who has survived the comings and goings of various Ducati franchises in the area simply because IMHO he does a great job.

I haven't got experience of the others mentioned so can't offer a comparison.
