    in the adelaide area who is at one with DUKES!
    i'm sick of money-hungry-can't-be-assed dickheads who think just cos
    they owned a form of motorcyle , they are entitled to be called mechanics.

    hmmmm kinda sounds like the IT industry really doesn't it ROFL!
    thanks in advance...

    Well, Phil at the Bike Factory rebuilt my single into one of the quietest
    and smoothest ones Gowie had ever met, built a very good 888 racebike
    out of a rather dodgy 851, and has a breathed on 750 Paso that frightens
    the bejesus out of late model 900SS's.

    He doesn't work cheap, but he's a perfectionist who knows both bevels and
    belts, you get what you pay for no question. If you give him his head,
    you'll get a top class bike back.

    I am a bit biased cos he rebuilt my 2 favourite bikes and did
    show-winning jobs on both of them. THe single's current incarnation is
    also indecently fast when anyone but me's riding it...

    Ducati now have a stand alone store in Adelaide,perhaps those mechanics
    should be phoned and see if you can shed any light on your project

    Ducati are not rocket science why not invest in some quality tools and
    service manuals,NOT that you would have to use either all that much !

    the real mechanics lost the dealership as they were just some little pissant
    store
