Talking Italia Moto

Formally Italia classics in Lincoln. I used to use these people when I had a Mk.1 Le mans, and later a 900 Monster, and they were spot on. Having decided that my Hayabusa was just too silly for the public roads, I had a yen for an S4R. Went to Itali Moto in Lincoln, and they were SPOT ON ! Made me a generous offer for my Busa, and a new red (of course) S4R for list, but including tax, reg. fee, datatag, tank pad, full tank of fuel, and labour on the first service.
Rang Ducati Leeds in Shipley, and they glibley said that as they were part of the Ducati store franchise, they could beat the deal, so I rode throug there. Nowhere near ! £450 less trade in, and none of the "extras" included, so a big up to Moto Italia, not least Tony Lembo, a man who is as good as his word. Thouroughly recommended. 5*

Have bought both of our Monsters from them, absolutely spot on, Tony and all of the guys are brilliant. Craig the stores/service reception guy is very helpfull if you need parts or service, be warned though as they are so good they are always very busy so book early if you need a service.

10* excellent

Just got home from Italia. Once again they have done me proud.

The service cost £260! Not the £700 that was accidently quoted to me..they must of got me muddled with someone else.

They changed my disk as it was warped not questions. And will sort my engine flaking out not a problem.

I think mand was also very please as well.

Top Chaps

Phil, Steve, Craige, Toni and all th others

As J&R say, just had my first year service at Italia today and there were totally brilliant. Very helpful and going to change my dodgy front disks in a couple of weeks, no questions. I'm a happy girl!


PS Thanks to Julie and Ruth for a great day -

Maybe they saw pictures on the Ducati UK website of FB in his one piece suit at Mallory, and decided to name the sofa after him as a tribute?

Hmmm.. perhaps he could even blag some personal sponsorship from DFS, World of Leather etc... for the next trackday?
