Check the labour rates at Cornerspeed and you will find they are extremely competitive with a discount for DSC members.
You pays your money and takes your choice. I know where I am best served.

For what it is worth the work I last had done there came in well below the estimate.

The problem there is that too many people just follow like sheep and go and give there money away to the theives

People have being sent to jail for lesser crimes (Ducati servicing prices)

Hello

After 5yrs of ownership, and a comedy of errors with Ducati dealers.
I am more than happy to travel the 400 miles round trip to Conerspeed.

each to their own I guess.

"each to their own" . . .
 

EXACTLY

But like I said there is too much hero worship going on here - if you have money to burn - follow the other lemmings to the usual suspects - they will be delighted to rip you off!

Otherwise, ask around, share your experiences good and bad - as a mere mortal you (like me) can ENJOY Ducati ownership without a MASSIVE race-spec bank account.

Hello Khushy

I look after my bike mate, had a 12K service with no rockers,
I try and do what work I can on the bike to save money when the service
is due, and no I don't have money to burn, but I do have peace of mind.

chillout its friday:)


TopiToo

dont tell me to . . .
 

f*cking chill out - p8ss off you bar-steward - I am f8cking chilled!!!!

LOL!!!

What you do seems sensible and like you I do most of the work on my bike myself - the only bit I wont touch are the shims (until I learn to do em myself) other than that they are the only part of my bike that gets DONE by someone else!!!

ok,all said & done- what should duk daz be paying for a 2 year service?

I've owned 5 Ducatis and probably done more miles than most, and therefore had more servicing work done.

I've tried various Ducati main dealers and independants and got well and truely hacked off with poor service. Actually same story with Jap bike dealers as well.

I came across Nelly and Cornerspeed thru the DSC and didn't know him from Adam. The service i've had has always been absolutely first class and at a reasonable price.

This isn't a sycophantic hero worship, sheep following exercise. It a genuine opinion on my hard earnt money well spent. As Herb said i've had work come in under estimate rather than the story of "Sorry we found X Y and Z so the bill has doubled.

I'm a fussy whinging git who wants the job done right and no excuses. Therefore for the last 3 years i've happily made the 120 mile round trip to Nelly, and never felt ripped off.

As for the comment about give your money to thieves, if your implying that Nelly is a thief then you're a ****. Same about follow the lemmings comment. Many of the people here value bloody good service they've had from Nelly. I wouldn't feel so strongly about any of the other dealers i've used over the years.

well guys thanks for all your reply,s,,,,i will spend the next few weeks getting quotes..authorised dealers will always be exspensive i reckon but guys like me who can not afford those prices will have to work a bit harder in finding cheap but good ducati machanic,s

can you give me names and telephone numbers of ducati servicing if possible guys ,,many thanks
