    I simply cannot pin down anyplace in California that services or restores the desmo era bikes.

    Full mechanical service front to back. I actually had one “hip” shop over on Melrose take delivery and get cold feet because their mechanic had never seen one. No word back from Beverly Hills Ducati and I get that. The Engine runs fine. Only has 4,500 miles but I need a major plus service.

    Has anybody worked with anyplace ?

    I need to restore my 4,500 mile 2002 748.
    The fairings will be a MUCH different story (unique fairings that year).

    Try Ducati of Los Angeles or San Diego for Desmo-era work. Otherwise, specialist restoration shops will take shipped bikes. For fairings, check Ducati forums or collector networks

    Iconic can probably take care of anything you need, but it won't be cheap.
