Service Wait...
I live local to 3X motorcycles where I bought my 996 and wanted a 2 year service but they cant fit me in 'till June and want to charge £600 !!! Does anyone now of any Ducati specialists local to Poole?

I saw on the links page Italian Motorcycles in Devon - Anyone get their bike serviced there?

If you have any info it would be greatly appreciated - Oh, if you cant publish your stories here, please email me! Ta ! mark@4pointstraining.co.uk

If you are not fussed for a Ducati main dealer, you could try Motorapido in Winchester, 01962 877998. Indepenedent specialist, excellent service and gives DSC discounts as well (I think)!

Thanks guys!

I've phoned Moto Rapido and booked my 996 in for a full service at £350 + VAT! Now what can I spend that £200 saving on....?

Nigel, Moto Rapido are getting booked up and they are booking from the 22nd May
as of now - thought you'd like to know.

Oh yeah, Sales number is 01962 877998 and the service number is 01962 877996

Bought my 748 BP from them a few weeks back, and got them to do a dyno setup a couple o weeks ago (93.2 bhp & 51.5 ftlbs )

top bunch of blokes, far better than the main dealer service I used to get with my R1.
