Anyone have recommendations for a great Ducati mechanic (and reasonably priced) within ~50 mi of NYC?

Thanks!

There used to be European Cycle Services in Middletown, but Steve, the owner, closed up and joined Hudson Valley Cycles in Ossining. Very good service, but now you pay standard dealer rates. I can't think of another independent in the area anymore with Ducati expertise.

Supermoto in saint James long island.
Joe is the owner, mechanic and salesman, few different views about that place but I can vouch as far as his mechanical skills, you'll pay for it but rest assured he'll get the job done the right way, he's certified Ducati race mechanic.
Cheers!

Steve closed up the shop? last I knew he had it open and was also the service manager at HVMC

I just text steve. He still does side work at ECS and his dyno is still located there. Closing it up eventually but sounds like not quite yet

I'm not sure he ever did both. And if he did, it was only for the transition. I remember getting some heat for my comments with the DESMO club for my opinions about losing a good independent shop. I thought it sucked that it was happening, but everyone else was backing the move. Steve has been a long-time member and supporter of the club and I was fairly new with the group. No surprises with everyone's reactions. They all thought I was attacking him which wasn't the case at all. I was just lamenting the loss of an independent shop; the big swallowing up the small and reducing options.

Huh. No one has ever mentioned that. I certainly wasn't aware.

If anyone has a recommendation for a NYC/North NJ mechanic please let me know. I'd be happy to find one near me.

I have to agree that Steve at HVMC in Ossining, NY is the best Ducati Mechanic within the NYC area. I drive about 2 hours from Jersey to get there and it is definitely worth it. Steve was able to get an additional 15hp out of my s4r with just a tune.

I have tried to go to motorcycle mall which is like 20min away from my location and had a terrible experience. That lead me to find Steve and follow him from ECS to HVMC.

If you're open to going into NJ than I would highly recommend Cross County cycles in Metuchen. They do pickup service also. I've sent my bike twice to that shop and they have done a great job. Not too expensive given that it's a Ducati/BMW shop but I highly recommend

Hey Abbott, I'm having an engine issue with my 2011 848 evo and would love to have Steve to look into it. I can come to him in Long Island. Any chance you could share his phone number with me, with his permission of course. Thank you!

You can find him at HVMC. Give them a shout there and ask for him.

I know this is an old thread but just to throw one in for lurkers: one of the instructors at CSS recommended these guys... I can't vouch for them but he said they were very good:

Bauce Racing, www.bauce-racing.com
22A Lasinski Rd, Franklin NJ

That's 6 miles from me, never heard of them.

Does anyone have any experience with Mike at Brooklyn Moto?

Let’s narrow it down- who is the best mechanic in NYC?
