    Still no wheel, I'll bet Max gets a new front wheel after he torpedoed Leon Haslam at the weekend, if his takes as long to arrive as mine has it's championship over

    Very good Mike.

    As my dealer over here says, "you are dealing with Aprilia Race Parts here, if your name is not Max then forget it".

    Sincerely hope it arrives soon as I understood the Factory was only going to close for the first two weeks of August to help the supply of parts. Although that is all well and good so long as the couriers they use only close for the same period. Otherwise Aprilia will ship the parts, but they will then sit for two weeks until the courier company returns to work in September.

    Amazing! Feel for you.

    I really feel for you mate. I wouldn't buy another Aprilia after the way they treated me. I waited 4 months for parts on my Tuono.

    I have been told the wheel is on it's way...................

    I have'nt been too mad because the bike was still useable and the tyre held air with no drop in pressure as I gently increased the pace, but, if I had of been off the road through what turned out to be the worst summer in over 100years I would have been

    As an e'g of just how unacceptable this is, yesterday at 15:00 ish I ordered a pair of door sill 'scuff' plates for my Audi as one had a little corrosion on the aluminium insert and was spoiling the car, I was informed they were a non stock item, today at 08:05 the phone woke me from a deep sleep...........................your ordered parts are in stock Sir

    I wonder if that will rub off on Ducati now that Audi own them
