It's always been the case in London that you buy a bike from a dealer and never go back. Thirty years ago when we were all buying from Elite Motors in Tooting it was just the same, they sold the bikes for the right price but you would never have trusted their "mechanics".

Find a decent independent for your servicing. I use Bill at Roebotech, he's reasonably priced (cash only), fully Ducati trained and has a link with Daytonas so he can deal with warranty work. He trades from APC's at South Harrow. I'm sure there are others dotted about.

He's got my 748 now for the heads to be done. My wallet is hiding round here somewhere.............................
