Are there still any for sale anywhere? The 04 version with full carbon bodywork?

I feel a rash spending decision coming on...and a plan has been brewing in my head for a while...

Just had a quick look on the Ducati UK bike search thingy,there are a couple of used bikes. One at Moto Rapido and another at 3X Motorcycles.

Ian, Ive already told you, Ive got first dibs on yours if (or when) you get rid of it!

I would like to have a new one, don't know why, I know it makes sense to buy one thats already taken most of the depreciation....and Electricsheeps bike looks ever so tempting!

Do you think they'll both want full retail?

Still in the market for a new 749R.

JHP reckon they can get me one for £13.5k, Snells for £13.25k, neither are willing to budge at the moment.

Considering retail was £13.5k (so I've been told), should I be expecting more of a discount on what is now, an older model, out of production bike? :puzzled::puzzled:

The 'older model, out of production bike' part is to get me more off the list price!! Thats exactly why I don't want the 05 bike :D

I think for the tip, if your getting rid of some bling you should U2U me first. He He. Put me down for the bling if some is going. You get lots of bling bling standard on the R. Well done mate.
