Dealers and Workshops
Have you say about the Ducati Dealer or Bike Shop near you. How knowledgable was the spanner man, what was the price, did you get a discount for being a member of 'Ducatisti' and most importantly, how did you rate the quality of their work?   Ducati Coventry - West Midlands Motorcycle Dealership

Sycamore Ducati - anyone used them?

The 1098S needs its 2 yr service and following a few proper horror stories on here im going to get it done before the 2 yrs is up and the bike is still in warranty.

Anyone used Sycamore Ducati near Rutland, Leics??

Any reviews/comments would be much appreciated.

Sycamore have only just got their Ducati franchise, so not sure how much experience they will have.

If it was our bike, we'd go somewhere more established with a proven track record.

Have you tried Jeff at G Tec...it's that sort of area.

Thanks for that. Id have to agree with you re. the experience. Didnt realise they were so new to the marque.

Ill give G Tec a call and see how much it will be.

I have experience of JHP myself and would rather let my 5 year old loose with my tool box. They certainly didnt mention anything to me about free collection. I had to arrange it myself via the good old AA.

Sycamores are a decent bunch though, who I've known through work for several years.

Jeff Green's a decent guy too though

JHP service

Hello "New BV Twin" (always better when you know who you are talking to !)

I certainly do not know who you are and I would very much like to know what problems you have had with JHP Ducati Coventry, It is very easy to type away and make slanderous remarks which can be very damaging.
Please contact me directly or via this forum and if you have had any problems caused in any way by work carried out here and your complaint is genuine then I will do everything possible to make ammends.

John.

Both my comments re JHP are true statements. One of fact and one my opinion.

PM sent.
