Yep know them only too well (quite local to me) & not to cause worry Colin - but wait till you select number 3 for parts on thier automated system to then be routed through to a voicemail (EVERY TIME), I am yet to have my calls returned, I now will not use them - they have pissed me about way too much ........................ but in saying that maybe if you buy the bike from them then they may well be more helpful.

Likely i will take the shock off and send it to them and get them to send me the replacement back.

Should that prove to much for them or Ducati UK then i shall make my thoughts very clear.
what i have been hearing from owners is that Ducati are very very good as a manufacturer at handling warranty claims and often offer sweeteners should there be unusual situations/delays or hassle on claims.

I can feel an Ohlins coming on.
 
I wanted a SP1 for long enough but got a RSV instead because after comparing them the RSV is a better bike.
The SP1 is heavy and steering in towns is bad cause of that bulging tank to make up for the bad MPG.
I wanted a 1000cc V twin and i feel i made the best choice in the RSV Mille. :thumbup

TL1000R - :puke

TLR aint pretty... NOr is the TLS.... BUT.. and I am going to get flak for this. The TLS is ******* fantastic!!!! I have owned three. My last one being very trick. LOADS more bottom end than my Mille. And also riding thru town was easier.... although I always had Renthals. :doug

BUT... They did let me down. Electric fire. Clutches. And I snapped two chains... My first two had the ol skool rotary shock and it behaved with my hooning. And I did HOON on those :inlove

I had a modding head on, so I sold them all and bought my Tuono...:inlove

Tnker tinker...
 
Rode a TLR trackbike....................quite possibly the most powerful v-twin I have ridden, but they are as heavy as a tank !!, and what gives with the rear suspension ?......Nope I cant understand how Suzuki fecked it up ssooooo bad as it could have been THE v-twin !!.
My V-twin experience
VTR1000 Firestorm - destroyed
VTR1000 SP1 - destroyed
RSV-R - "Frankie" & current bike
ridden the TLR trackbike , Ducati 998 & 1098R, 2006 RSVR......................I'll stick with "Frankie" for now :)

Colin you are so Smoooooooooooooooooooooooooooth!

Sorry to hear about your Duke. And theres was me thinking it was the rain keeping it off the road.:pirate. If there is anything I can do...:eatcorn
 
Rain No, Salt Yes

Shock is out and should be back with Ducati today so hopefully it will get sorted soon Ta
 
TLs? Pah! Long before all them I owned a TR1 - the Japs' first attempt at making a Ducati (or a Harley). Two SR500 barrels on a common crankcase with an awesome 69Bhp should have been a recipe for a classic - instead it turned into one of Yamaha's least-remembered lemons. My only defence is that it was, like all my bikes in those days, spray canned matt black.
