Haha yeah I was fkin exhausted. I was doing pretty close to speed limit and got passed by absolutely everything. SUVs, minivans, RVs, you name it. It was bad haha.

And get this - the minute I parked my bike when I got to Whistler, some guy comes out of the Husky and walks up to me - "were you doing 300kph?" :lol

:badpokerface::lawl:

he spoke with a hint of sarcasm I hope, cause I woulda been like errr :badpokerface:

Yeah he was just giving me a hard time haha we had a good laugh. I guess people are watching the news =p

Back on S2S :fullofwin:

nice hornet :)

thanks dude

:fuuuuu: got a speeding ticket . $196 down the drain.

you guys got any recommendations for a good honest reliable Ducati shop where you can get your basic services done like oil changes, checkups etc ??

^

apparently Alfie at Imperial is one of the best Duc techs in BC

Yeah he's a good guy...he reset my service light for free just cause he remembered that my bike was service there by the previous owner. No questions asked, he even spent sometime talking and giving me some advice. Good guy!

Imperial charges $96 an hour and has a good mech like mentioned above.

Ducati-BMW dealership charges $106 or $116 an hour.

Mspeed just had one of their mechs go through Ducati mech training at the Ducati Canada headquarters (I think on the east coast some where) and charges $85 an hour.

I've taken my business to Mspeed for most oil changes, although they can be done on ducs by anyone as it's a pretty general task, which you can get done at pretty much any shop.

Things like valve checks, I would only hand it off to certified/experienced Ducati mechs though.

any of you guys know who to go to for dyno tuning w/ a power commander? got a pcv coming in tomorrow and i need somewhere to tune it properly. i know modern has a dyno, but that's pretty much it.

thanks for the help, where is this imperial shop at ?

I googled Imperial Ducati and result came up for a shop in Colorado

nvrmind found it, http://www.imperialmotorcycles.com/

imperial is good. i take my gixxer there for service.

Dave & Darcy have a dyno @ their shop - Cypress Motorbike in Delta. I take my SR500 there and they've dyno tuned it.

ill 2nd that! just had work done to my bike on friday there, turns out i lost a two collars when i had put on a fairing kit and didnt realize it...they couldnt get the collars in for a week so he just took the parts off his bike and gave em to me and told me when the parts come in he'll take the new parts to save me a trip back there

DIY. Best satisfaction by working on your own bike.

thanks dude, my tech at bmw/ducati recommended me to the same guys. getting the bike dyno'd on friday :D
