    Not for me but an interesting way of financing.

    Can't see any small print but if you can re-enter another 50-2-50 deal after the 2 years again and again then surely for your initial 50% deposit you can be on a new bike every 2 years with no further outlay indefinitely? Or am I missing something?

    Will the increase in RRP everytime you renew need paying for?

    Ducati must be cottoning on that £20k+ motorbikes aren't obtainable for the majority of the population.

    What they give you when they value the bike at the end of the 2 years goes towards the new bike. They’ll make bloody sure you owe them something I guarantee.

    Need the small print to answer that. Even if they're being tight they can't suggest it's lost 50% in 2 years. Even one of the statements in the literature talks about high residual values on Ducatis.

    High residual values i can relate too where Ducatis are concerned. Of course it will vary from model to model but I bought my 2020 Panigale v4 for £16995 at 6 month old, sold it 3 years later for £17000 !!! So they definitely hold their value.

    You've still got too find 10k+ to put down in advance though right? Then no monthly payments for two years?

    Most people would probably have to get a loan to pay the deposit anyway wouldn't they? Unless you have that kind of cash in your bank account, I'm not sure it makes sense. Might as well do PCP! :rolleyes:

    So
