Ducati Leeds asked me to sent them the service history of the bike so that they could ask Ducati UK to pay for the shagged rockers. I dug the book out only to find that it origionally came from Taz motorcycles (and so is an import) I dont know if the guy i got it off knew it was an import as he was the second owner and he got it from another shop. When i asked i was told it was a UK bike but i guess i should have looked closer at the books all i saw was the stamp for the first service.

Ducati Leeds said they will still do their best for me but I guess im going to have to pay for the rockers myself now. Im really upset about it because even though it looks like its a German bike it was still made by Ducati and its their crappy engine parts that have failed! Or is it ok to sell the crap ones to Germany?

Sorry for the rant but its kinda taken the shine of Ducati ownership. Im thinking about cutting my losses and going back to Jap now

The problem is the bike is prob now worth way less because i will have to advertise it as an import
