Was in Miami these past few days on business and visited Miami Ducati's shop in Miami Gardens. What a fabulous place!! Layed out almost like a museum. Gorgeous bikes...they also sell MVs, Benelli, and Bimota. If you stop by, make sure you say hello to Desmo.

Is Desmo the requisite duck shop dog?

Our local shop's Desmo is a toy poodle. Would be funny to see the two Desmo's side-by-side! Grin

Is it required to have a shop dog? My local shop has three and seems every other shop has at least one.

That dog is awesome, and enormous. The guy I spoke with said it was an old Italian breed I had never heard of. It was certainly in the mastiff line, really a cool dog. I have a 5lb chihuahua and Desmo takes bigger dumps than my little dude. I think mine attracts more poon though. Say what you will about the little dog, but the chica's love him.

I've also heard their service is sketchy, but I have no experience yet. I'm hoping someone further north picks up the brand now that Pure Ducati/Triumph went belly up a few months back. I rode down from Boca because my engine paint is peeling off. They took/sent pictures to HQ in Italy. I was told about 1.5-2 weeks ago that Ducati was still on Holiday and not gotten back to them yet. Are they yanking me or what?

For non-warranty service take it to Chris Boy instead of down to Miami. Where abouts in Boca? Are you the guy I've seen riding around a dark?

Chris did my 7500 mile service. The paint is a warranty issue, so I am stuck going down there. I have a white 696, and live in NE Boca.

My in-laws live off Yamato, but I haven't seen a white 696 yet.
