V4 Waiting On New Pikes Peak

There is the odd second hand one appearing for sale but, I ordered my PP on 5th November last year and still waiting. Last delivery date from Ducati in the dealer's computer was July and they have yet to update it.

I've switched off for now and will get excited again when the bike is actually at my dealer. The latest delay is due to a lack of Ohlins suspension availability.....apparently.

 

Öhlins manufacturing is in disarray and has been for most of the year. High demand, low output capacity, a recipe for dissatisfied customers. Andy

 

The wait will be worth it, I can assure you.

 

I ordered a V2S Travel in February, initial delivery was mid April but like a lot of others it's still hasn't been delivered to the dealer. I was very lucky though, the V4S Sport was purchased by someone else who returned it with 201 miles on the clock, and picked a new Peaks Peak in June. My dealer called me and offered me the bike, which I gladly accepted, so I got a month old V4S Sport for £3000 cheaper, and I absolutely love it, what a result. . I hope someone else gets to enjoy the V2S when it finally arrives.

 

How strange, I ordered mine 3 November from Ducati Manchester and it was delivered the last week in June, probably got it slightly earlier due to a cancellation but I'm amazed you're still waiting , a friend ordered one in June from Ducati Leeds and has been told he'll have it before Christmas.

 

I have tried to understand how Ducati prioritizes delivery but, there doesn't appear to be any logic to it. That said, I'm also waiting for a car which 'might' be delivered a year after I ordered so it could just be bad luck on my part lol.

My dealer has/had a backlog of 40 odd bikes he was waiting on from the factory apparently, so I'm not alone and just resigned to waiting. Maybe mine will arrive by Christmas as well.

 

Dealers haven't had confirmation of the next batch and some might not even get the numbers they have allocated, so whilst they say April, they cannot guarantee.

I have a v4 PP 5 week old, touring kit(centre stand-heated grips-panniers), 3 different seats (heated) carbon extras, throttle spacer and some other bling, its done 40 miles, thats correct 40 miles only.. £30k and ill part with it.

 

Do have photos of the bike? I know someone how may be interested, he's still waiting on a date for his PP.

 

The spec of the PP you have @D4VE is probably £30k new now.

 

There's one back on AutoTrader under Multistrada unspecified. They also want 30k which I think is more than a new one would be at the same spec.

 

This is what £1150 worth of bling looks like.

 

Another little touch.

 

That sets the bike off nicely.

 

Ducati Leeds have got 7 going out this week and apparently 1 for sale, mind you that was 10 minutes ago..

 

Sounds promising and hopefully signals a flow of a few more bikes out of the factory. Glad to hear there's going to be at least 7 happy punters about to get early Christmas pressies.

 

I’ve been tempted to get that, and this has convinced me.

 

Where's it from?
