Stealership Recommendation

Anyone on the board have a good experience with a dealer in the Boston area. I need to have my belts and valves checked/adjusted (6,000mi.). I'd love to do it myself but just don't have the time and don't want to neglect them. I've done all the other 6k work.

As a note - specifically interested to see if anyone has been to Moto Italia in Worcester (I'm now slightly west of Boston). Would be a little easier for me but have never heard of them before.

if you really want to not worry about it take it to BCM.

I don't know anything about Ducati dealers in Boston.

I live in Virginia...and I take my bike to BCM in NH...an 8.5 hour drive that I will gladly endure for the peace of mind that my bike has been serviced by the best.

If I lived in Boston...I'd go to BCM just to hang out!

I do plan a trip up to BCM this summer but would like to get this taken care of. As mentioned, I don't have a lot of time due to work and a baby due soon (not me but my wife). Looking for a place to dump the bike off and maybe pick up a few days later.

id give you the vote for BCM as well....i dont know how far away they are i just know they shipped my bike out of boston so it couldnt be TOO far

Nault's up in Manchester has a good service shop.

Agreed,
Kyle really knows his $hit! Still looking for something closer but if all else fails will likely wait and do BCM.

I live in Virginia and have a dealership 20 minutes from my house. I take my ST4 to BCM. 13 hours and well worth the trip.

Kennedy,

BCM is only about an hour away from you. It should not even be a question.

More like 1.5 but a full day nontheless. Still have time as an issue right now. I'll probably try to schedule an appt. and sweat it out until I can ride up there mid-summer (I hope).

Don't want to ruin your trip, but I think you need to haul it to them. They need to work on it cold.

I'll second that...that's what I had to do in the fall...

don't you have a dealership in somerville, brockton and worcester?

We sure do. Trust in your dealer goes a long way. I'll make the trip to BCM any time I need to.

I used to live 5mi. from Somerville. Still made the drive up to NH.

well i bought my duc at naults, so you have the choice naults or bcm.

I also make a 7 hour each way drive to BCM for anything my 749 needs.
I'm in upstate NY.

Do you have a favorite route to BCM? Something that avoids the congestion around major cities? I'll be traveling on a weekend so it should be better.
