Hello All..
This is my first post on your forum, I've been researching this forum as well as a few others regarding the purchase of a 696. It's been very informative to say the least and it seems this forum has the most content and strongest user base. So I decided to join and get some feedback from you all on my upcoming purchase..
So a local dealer offered me, what I perceive to be, a sweet deal on a brand new bike..
2010 Pearl White 696 w/ ABS
$9500 out the door including registration, documentation, delivery and prep
I understand the margins on motorcycles are much less than cars (i've always fought for invoice on automobiles) and the 696 is an entry-level bike for Ducati.. hence the margins are even lower.
With that being said, am I getting a fair deal?
They are asking for a $500 deposit, special 2.9% financing, and I'm going to try and get a discount on accessories (helmet, jacket, gloves)
Appreciate all the feedback!
Get it!

will do. if the Ducati ABS system is anything like the Honda Fireblade CBR1000RR ABS system then we are in for a real treat [thumbsup]
Welcome, looking forward to the pictures and report! [thumbsup] [popcorn]
Yep once you get it, you'll ahve to let folks know about the ABS. The general Monster section will probably be the best spot. You'll get a lot of interwebz tire kicking once you post your thoughts. Like Raux said I think you'll be the 1st
