    Ducati service in Auckland?

    Hi

    Can anyone please recommend a place in Auckland that can service Ducati. Is dealer my only option? I need someone who can reset the service light.

    Cheers

    Download JPDiag for free, and buy a $3 cable and you can reset it yourself.

    "Cruel, but fair" as Monty-Python remarked, & esp' since a Suzuki wants its 'electrickery cable' cut, not added to..

    I have been in the Ducati Cyclespot store before and there is an old dude there. Anyone know if he used to work at Haldanes in Mt Eden back in the day?

    Yeah I thought i recognised the fucking bastard. I bought a gn125 from him at haldanes 1 week later it broke down and he didnt want to know about it. Essentially told me i was shit out of luck and to fuck off. This was a long time ago but you dont forget shit like that. It wasnt a lot of money but i was a broke ass student who didnt know any better.

    Thing is today im in the market for a panigale but no way in hell would i deal with that cunt or wherever he works. Would avoid him and Cyclepot like the plague.

    I dunno about you - but I stopped doing Drunken Tech Master a long time ago.

    Something to do with Port Forwarding on a Router drunk, and Port forwarding port 80, nearly bricking the router and having to factory reset and reconfigure - all Very Drunk.

    The business owner, Grant, is a top bloke. Ask for him and explain your reasoning. I am sure he would love to help you. Grant is a friendly top bloke to deal with. But some of the staff are not.

    What's the bike, and are you fairly handy / willing to learn? Is it possible to skip the whole dealer thing?

    Ducati.ms is a board I've used a lot - there is a lot of hands-on experience in that forum.
