Talking I like the bit about . . .

"get Khushy to do it" - LOL!!!!

But in REAL terms - I'd like to see another "customer" maintained bike as good and as well prepared as mine - its actually not that difficult or expensive to look after your own!

OK I am no race mechanic - but anyone who has seen my bikes (I hope) will agree they are VERY well cared for.

Its not difficult - why dont we spend some of our energy teaching each other Ducati maintenance - I would be up for that (LEARNING) and that would be a REAL benefit for the DSC members - rather than all the bull*it that goes on here most of the time.

I have also often offered and helped out other owners with general work on their bikes - the offer is still there as is the use of some of the specialist tools I have acquired over the years.

Just think, if we all acted as "club" we could save a bundle?!?!?!? Think of what you could spend that extra cash on - track days, bling, more track days etc etc

I would still only allow a specialist to do the shims/rockers etc - until I learn how to do it - I know that some people here can. EVERYTHING else - I will have a go at - knowing that it will be done properly without major expense - safely and to the standard that I am happy with.
