Have been waiting nearly two weeks for parts that ARE in stock in Italy for my 996. I want to get my bike back on the road asap. How long can I really expect to wait, anyone share their experiences?

Hello mate was at CMW's at Chichester today and they were cancelling jobs for next week as loads of parts are on backorder from Italy.

If you think it is bad now just wait til Italy shuts down for the summer!

Last year I waited six weeks for the mounting bracket for the rear brake pedal.
Luckily I never use it and tie wrapped it to the frame and still rode it!

Bit of a ****er to have to wait for minor parts never mind a camshaft?
You have all my sympathy PJ

I don't think Ducati shuts down their parts service during the summer anymore. Unfortunately, that won't necessarily make deliveries any shorter.

Five weeks for two pinch bolts for a race swingarm.:o
Well it was the start of august when everything else arrived,i then realised that these are longer and a different pitch.
Nobody in the uk had them in stock,when i could place an order for them there was a backlog of orders.
These are the joys of modifying your bike.
