KENTUCKY DUC
Ed Fieldhouse brought his 749 from Louisville Kentucky to Georgia for Ducshop to prep it for the 07 race season. He writes….
"I just wanted to say thanks for all the fantastic work that Mark and the gang did on my Ducati!!!! I choose Ducshop because of the reputation that Mark had in the industry. He is known for his exceptional skills when It comes to Ducati motorcycles. Mark’s meticulous work and scrupulous attention to detail was noticed right away by me, because of his observations regarding my 749. He pointed out little things (master link, breather gasket, exhaust rubbing,etc.), that had nothing to do with his contracted work. Mark committed to installing a 920 kit on my Ducati. He stuck to his original quote over the phone, and completed the project according to the time schedule. Mark told me a conservative number that he thought would be the horsepower number, and he greatly exceeded that number! The 749 with basically a 54mm exhaust, ECU, and filters dynoed @105hp. After Lorin’s install of the kit and dyno work, he managed to squeeze 128hp out of the bike. This was much more than I thought possible out of this motorcycle. I was originally going to test @ Jennings, but do to unforeseen issues, we never made it down to Florida. I have ridden the motorcycle around the neighborhood, and have noticed a HUGE improvement in ride ability, and power. It runs more like a 999 now. Perfect! I am looking forward to Barber in March.
"Finally, the staff @ the Ducshop went out of there way to make me feel at home! Lorin who met me at the door, and gave me a tour of the shop, and talked to me about very technical issues regarding my 749. I felt very comfortable with the knowledge that he and others had about Ducati. Wendy and Mark were also there to meet me and make me feel at home. Everyone had come into the shop on a day that they were closed, to help me start my project. They made me feel very important.
"THANKS TO EVERYONE @ DUCSHOP!!!!!!!
Eddie.”
Since this letter Ed took the bike to the track were it was continuously mistaken for a 999.
