  2. I've been using PRO-TWINS - it's not cheap... I know, but at least their work is 110% spot on. For simple servicing I don't want to do myself SCOTT at SNS is there too... between them, my bases are covered. I'm not riding an hour+ just to get to a dealer. That's just nonsense
     
  3. My SF needs a service soon, did you use pro-twins for yours?
     
  4. It sounds like to me your a bit homophobic to the brand, are you worried after entering the building with that Tom cruise haircut and shiny teeth you might depart with longhair & lace leather chaps.:p

  5. Went In yesterday in the hope the summer jackets were on sale. Places was eerily quiet.

    MV has gone, they’ve handed back 90% of their new stock so mainly second hand bikes on show.

    Real shame as I’ve used them circa 15 years since moving to West Sussex.

    Had a chat with Marcus and he mentioned JW Groombridge has folded and rumour has it Laguna in Kent are parting ways with Ducati

  7. Wow, that is a shock
     
  8. Thats right.
    I’m curious as to what’s going to happen as currently superbike factory don’t sell new bikes apart from obscure Chinese crap, and P&H was more focused on new bikes to the point it had a dedicated separate Honda showroom.
    Maybe this is an in for Superbike factory into a new segment of the market?
    Lady in clothing said on Saturday it’s all being refitted with bikes and clothes open from January and service in November.
    I’ve come to know a few of the staff over the years so hope jobs are safe.

  16. Yes for the SF I went PRO-TWINS was still in warranty etc. For the older bikes, if I can't do it myself, I would take to Scott at SNS in Ockley

  17. Not a Ducati branded outlet but Groombridge Motorcycles was closed when travelling through late this afternoon today.:thinkingface:
     
  18. Another one that has bitten the dust, unfortunately
     
  19. Who knows perhaps they're rearranging the deck chairs.
     
  20. Looks like it’s official now about superbike factory.
