Where to get a service...?
 
It is fast approachig that time of year (June) when I need my next service.

I bought the bike in June last year from Ducati Leeds and they told me that the R model needs the belts changing annually and that it was imperative that I didn't miss this.

What sort of money is a full service (approx 5k miles) on a 748R?

The bike will be three years old in I think November.

Anyone recommend a good dealer near Cambridge?

I know of St Neots but don't know whether they are good, bad or indifferent.

I am sure that there will be stories both good and bad, but anything to consider and/or avoid?

Thanks in advance...

Always been happy with Baines Racing at Silverstone, might not be the cheapest but really know their stuff and always make time to deal with my questions.

Mines booked in at Cornerspeed in just a couple of weeks time.

Looking forward to the same level of satisfaction as already expressed above !
