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)

I had my belts changed this week (but that's another story...) cost me £40 including parts

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.

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.

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
