    Just returned from having work /service done by Neil.Had some problems to sort and he continued working until he sorted them which was way past his closing time. Absolutely first class

    "Service legend and mechanical magician"
    Pros - Simply the best ducati servicing you can get
    Cons - None
    Great down to earth bloke who loves Ducatis as much as you do. If it's not up to standard when it goes in, it sure as hell will be when it comes out.

    Neil (aka Nelly) is as anal about his work as Ducati owners are about cleaning, and that's a good thing.

    He's service through and through, he makes his living by treating your bike well and not selling you something, if only dealers workshops were like Cornerspeed

    "Great service."
    Pros - Personal touch, not hiding behind a service desk or sales people. You actually get to talk to the tech!
    Cons - None
    My bike hadn't been serviced for a while so wasn't rideable. I'd hired a van to go and purchase it. Corner speed allowed me to drop the bike there even though he was really busy and couldn't service it for a while. I really appreciate the personal touch and saving me the hassle of messing about getting another van or risk riding it in on old belts at a later date. See you next year :)

    "Excellent"
    Pros - Everything
    Cons - Nothing
    I do my own servicing, repairs etc. but during my recent Monster build I needed some specialist work doing and wanted to be sure it was done 'right first time' so to avoid any possibility of me getting it wrong I took it to Neil at Cornerspeed. Excellent job, good price and I would highly recommend for all Ducati work.

    "Nelly is fantastic"
    Pros - Superb knowledge, sensible approach to what needs doing when, gets the job done when he says he will.
    Cons - Location, but he can't change that.
    Awesome independent but fully approved outfit headed up by Neil, I for many years transported bikes from SE London to Nelly in Notts and it was always worth it. His knowledge of models both older and newer means he is more than capable of looking after your toys.

    "Excellent service"
    Pros - Excellent and professional service
    Cons - None
    I'd heard good things about Neil so as it is close to me I thought Id give them a try. Thankfully everything I'd heard is true after a service and a reflash it was all explained to me and all my questions answered. They were both friendly and happy to chat and at a very Good price. I will definatly use him again. 5 out of 5

    "Great servive"
    Pros - Did exactly what he said he would.
    Cons - none
    Very knowledgeable and friendly. Booked a Desmo service and fuel sender. Done on timer for the money quoted. Friendly professional and pain free. Ready on time and a few other small items discovered, excellent attention to detail.

    "1200S"
    Pros - Completely painless purchase
    Cons - None
    Would buy from here again, efficient PDI check and contact throughout. Completed the Desmo service prior to service and a 12 month MOT. Dave kept me up to date with all repairs and a timeline for collection.

      Hi. As much as I appreciate the 5 stars, I think you have me confused with Ducati Nottingham? I'm close by, but I don't sell the bikes, just service them, and there's no Dave working for me. Cheers Neil

    "Goes above and beyond"
    Pros - Personal service, friendly and down to earth.
    Cons - Just a little further away than I would like, but can't hold that against him i suppose.
    I've been using Neil and Cornerspeed for a couple of years now after being recommended by a couple of friends. I have to say that I wouldn't use anywhere else now and if I were to move away I'd end up being one of the crazy ones that make a long trip to keep Neil attending to my Ducati's.

    If it wasn't enough to have great friendly service and the fact that he's ALWAYS happy to take the time to chat things through with you. He's gone above and beyond in recent weeks to fix an issue for which I'm extremely appreciative of.

    Cornerspeed has gained a life long customer with me.
