Radiator repairs

29-04-2015, 10:20 AM

This chap has recently repaired a small leak on my bike quickly (over the weekend!) and at a great price. I would recommend him to anyone although by his own admission he cannot guarantee 100% success rate with all repairs - fair enough!
His name is David and he will arrange postage service returns.
Hope this helps someone else.

handy find, moved to dealer/service, thanks

ps. your M600 has a radiator?

You know how it starts with Ducatis. I did have a 600 for a while and it was a good little bike. Certainly it was a more relaxed alternative to the 998 for nipping about. Currently got an S4R but had it a few years now and got to thinking about having a change, but where do you go?

Ah that's a tough choice after an S4R.
I took the route of the 1100 EVO. Big drop in power BUT the modern bikes are lighter and more nimble. The EVO had a more usable engine for UK roads and I grew to love.
Now moved on to an 821, so I keep going down in CC's but the new ones do have a bit more power.

Air cooled would certainly have negated the radiator issue! I did try a 796 at my local dealer but that was straight off the 998 and it couldn`t really compete. A longer ride and I may have succumbed to it`s charms (before I upset all you 796 owners). Maybe.....
