  3. Took a Monster for a test ride this morning. Had it for 1 1/2hr and jelled with it straight away! I want one as my next bike but the dealer wants full rrp for it which is a sticking point for me. I'll see how I feel about it after sleeping on it.

  4. I managed to buy the demo bike ..... it had 500 miles on it, so they are doing the 600 mile service this week. Got £1500 off the price and they took £300 off the termis.
    I had no trade -in though as I sold it privately.

    Hope that helps!

  5. I'll ask about the demo bike when I talk to them tomorrow. I'd specced the Monster up with Termi's, heated grips & the 2 year warranty extension. I may have to drop the warranty & Termi's to bring it down to an affordable price if the dealer refuses to budge on the rrp.
     
  6. Always worth a try .... fingers crossed for you :)

  7. Also rang another fairly local dealer this afternoon so will be contacting them as well in the morning.
     
  8. Sounds like you may have bought one by the end of tomorrow :grinning::grinning:

  9. Have you spoken to OYB they had monsters coming out of their ears a while back
     
  10. Just had a look at their web page, you're right, they have a few !! I'd like to try to buy from a local dealer first if I can, but thanks a lot for the link.
     
  11. I put a deposit on a black 1200s with Ducati Coventry this morning. They were more than happy to discount. I'm not having the Termi's (for now) but have specced the heated grips & extended warranty. They have to order it so said it may be mid August before it's ready. I'm fine with that and may wait until Sept 1st for the new reg.
    got to change my avatar now !!

  14. Congrats on your new purchase. You do realise red ones are faster tho?

    You have to post a photo when you get it, with your bins, it’s the (Ducbird) law.
