Servicing in the North West?

On behalf of a forum member of another forum I subscribe to.
He's just bought his first Ducati, a 600SS, but needs a 12,000 mile service on it - belts, valves etc. Any suggestions on where he can have it done at reasonable cost? His local dealer has quoted £400 . . .
He's in Lancs.

Cheers
Ducati John.

Thanks D J, you were suggested by another member and I passed it on to him, suspect you'll be getting a call from him sometime soon when he gets back from Saudi.

I can recommend Ducati John 110%!
Great guy, great prices and totally trustworthy which in my book counts the most.
And he doesn't just sell em or just fix em, he owns a couple of beauts! Ex BSB mechanic... what more do you need to say...

JHP in Coventry will pick up and deliver for free anywhere in the country. Ducati main dealers. Worth a phone call, nice chaps and not that bad pricewise!

Did you try Woods in Abergele? I recently bought a bike from there and they offer a courtesy bike to use whilst yours is being serviced - not a bad run out from Liverpool either... other than that Ducati Manchester in Sale (by the Trafford Centre) but I can't vouch for them....

+1 for Woods in Abergele. Technically not in the North West, but a nice day out too.

For an old bike like a 600SS DucatiJohn would be a really good choice. If your pal looked at his website fully, he has all the 'street cred' and is highly regarded and recommended throughout the Ducatisti community.
