Need engine repair near Philadelphia

Postby Philly Eddie » Wed May 13, 2020 4:08 pm

Ducatisti: Moved to an apartment without a garage, so I can't work on my bike. The engine (450 spring head) gets spark but I can't get it to even burp with ether. My only clue is that I may have mis-aligned the timing when I replaced rings. Anyway, I need a recommendation of a mechanic near Philadelphia. Thanks. Eddie

Not this shop. I know where that Discovery channel bike is. No longer there, still not running. Anyway, I'll take anywhere within 100 miles of Philly.

Ok, sorry to suggest them then. I met Adam at Barber a few years back and he seemed like a nice guy. Are you anywhere near Port Clinton? I work with Hermy and Kathy at Herdan corp for my Moto Morini spares. IDK if they do repair or not but they might know someone who can help.

Port Clinton is about 60 miles from me. Good enough. I will contact them. Thank you.

Closer to NYC, Frank Giannini is a master Vintage Ducati mechanic/ machinist since they were new.
