i dont care if you have been a mechanic for 10 years doing something for a long time does not make you good at it, take my gf for an example shes been walking for 28 years and still manages to fall over all the time.

Yep that's sad, never good to see a dealer go under.
There could be a sale but from memory they didn't keep much in stock.
It's worth a call or maybe a trip out to inquire.

Will there be another Duc dealer out west. Why are they closing? And yeah, a sale would be good, we could scavange off the carcass  ;D

Gecko, the only Ducati dealership in canb. are closing down too.  last trading day is Wednesday.  all the new bike are going back to ducati and 2nd hand bikes are being auctioned later.

a bit of a coincidence that 2 ducati shops r closing down in the same week.

Bit sad yes, might be a good time to close in on that S4Rs you were talking about on the general board. I'd say you could be looking at a sub $15k price tag.  [thumbsup]

  Apparently the owner has just decided to close down,send all the bikes back to Ducati, buy a big yacht and go sailing. Maybe he owns both shops ?. The mechanic has bought the workshop tools and will continue to service Ducati's.

Maybe he should buy a big Ducati-Multi  and ride around the world. Less pirates on land  [cheeky]

Exactly my thoughts.  'cept I think it's already sold  :-[

All the other used bikes must have been on consignment and have gone to another dealership.  the auction list is finalised and only 3 bikes on the list.  two MTS and a ktm.

not really interested in an mts, even a cheap one.

Rode out and spoke to Scotty yesterday and he told me he was opening up just down the road. Scott has been servicing my bikes for years, so I'm glad he is sticking around.

Facebook page has contact details etc in the short term until he gets a proper site up and running: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Duc-Pen/191727070862817
