| Ducati discontinue the ST4s
Called into my local dealer on Saturday to book in my ST3 for a service after a 1500 trip to Prague.
Got chatting to salesman about how impressed I'd been with the bike (minor niggles aside) and wondered how many they had sold this year...1 he said and that was mine!
He then showed me a letter from Ducati advising of the demise of the ST4 which is to be discontinued, but gave no reason as to why. The dealer guessed that slow sales were to blame. They had sold only 2 this year so far.
There was no mention of the ST3, but how much longer they can continie to make a model that isn't selling is anyones guess.
My advice is to think seriously if you are considering buying an ST4 given the effect on future values.
Alternatively any dealers carrying stock may be up for a bit of a deal! My ST3 is a cracking bike and the ST4 probably more so. |
