Living over there, LouigiMoto has to be a top option. Local, friendly and very helpful. Reputation on here for servicing etc is very good.

Yep - bought my bike in Jan and took it to LouigiMoto for a once-over. I'm not an expert, but though they aren't big and shiny like an official Ducati dealership, they seemed to me to be very knowledgable, very enthusiastic, very conscientious and very good value

elaborate fella. I'm curious.

Personally i'm a little screwed from servicing perspective as the only bloke i would use previously was AJ Racing... he left to live a life in Oz though so he's no longer an option. I use Cornerspeed in Nottingham now, but would happily use LouigiMoto having known Rich L for many years.

Maybe there was only ginger nuts available :puzzled:

Personally, I can't believe that Rich would shaft anyone. It's just not his style. A misunderstanding or 'Ducati' prices perhaps?

No doubts about Nelly at Cornerspeed but a bit of a way to go.

Don't know Louigi myself but I'd recommend Steve and Wilf at Moto Rapido - http://www.motorapido.co.uk/

Ducati Snells of Alton

it would be unfair for me to go into detail but i do feel that perhaps he's viewed with rose tinted specs on here...

fair enuff. Louigi has always been exceptional for me. Going WAY WAY out of the call of duty to perform tasks for me on my bike without ever asking for anything.

I even recall 2 years ago at Donny him supplying me a 996 to race with Derby Phoenix for £0 cost, with every piece of spares humanly possible, the only payment he'd take was a few pints in the bar the night before.
