Just moved to Vegas. Need to get my 848 evo race bike refreshed and tuned... Any shops you recommend? Also have an MV F4 I'd like to get dyno tuned with microtec. Seems all the SoCal shops can't dyno and I haven't heard good things about the Vegas MV shop Euro Cycle. I thought moving to the SoCal area there would be tons of shops for Ducati / MV. Seems like the midwest is better. Strange...
Jett Tuning in Camarillo can assist. Or Attack Performance in Huntington Beach. Jozef has done some dyno work for me in the past with killer results.
Get in touch with Jeff Stern, he is in Vegas. I am sure he can help you or point you in right direction.
(Less cryptic) Contact the gentleman on the other end of the phone at Fastline Performance in Vegas. That’ll be the Jeff dude...
Spoke to Jeff for over an hour last week. Seems like an awesome dude... Anyway, he wanted nothing to do with a Ducati or MV. In fact... Told me to dump them and by a bike that isn't a piece of crap. He doesn't sugar coat his opinion. haha. Probably why I liked him even though I don't share his thoughts on Ducati / MV. He mentioned Irish Mikes Performance but the number for him is disconnected. Maybe he's still around but I stopped my search there and posted here to see where the Ducati guys are going. I may end up shipping the bike to Boulder Motorsports but would be nice to find someone I can drive to in less than 5 hours.
That's what you deserve after going ahead and start dating a hot Italian redhead, even though everyone knows they are really high maintenance. Not many can deal with the (at times) out of control emotions.
If you are willing to drive Wild for the Machine is good. He doesnt have a dyno but has close connections to people that do. Or next level cycles in Lakeside. AMA Mech for years. Has dyno as well.
I know it's kind of far but Boulder Motorsports would be my choice. Call Brian Sharp, he is a great guy and extremely knowledgeable.
Looks like a have a few options to try. Thanks to all that replied, really appreciate the knowledge on here. Yes Gino... For the 848 thinking its best to just ship the thing to boulder and know its done right. Been running italian bikes for over 10 years on the track and I have learned most (not all) guys that do jap stuff and Ducati usually cost me more money and pain in the long run. I have yet to find a good Ducati mechanic that also plays with jap stuff. I am sure they exist somewhere but it's been nothing but bad experiences with those type of guys for me in the past. Even so called "big name" guys.
Irish Mike is based out of Major Powersports (702) 798-1024. He is for sure the guy to talk to about Ducati and MV.
They do exist but you're right, they're rare. Vic Fasola is the only one I can think of off the top of my head. However no clue where he is these days.
