    Is this bull?
    Or is it just that there is greater supply?

    well the logic is, that there is no market, so anything left over from the summer sales will most likely not be bought till the weather clears up.

    This is probably more applicable to "Sunday bikes" as good work horse bikes will be used throughout the year thus maintaining demand.

    What gets hit is the beginner and Sunday bikes, because no one really starts to learn in crappy cold weather.

    I was in my local Kawasaki dealer last week and they have knocked huge amounts of the 2007 range. They have a ZZR1400 for €11990 :eek: , RRP is €14,325. Thats just one example, some of the others had 1 or 2k knocked off here and there.

    Yeah well the 2008 bikes coming along soon would explain that. Even if it's only a change of colours it devalues the old ones.

    Oh and you stole my old sig :D

    In Cavan there was a great fire / Judge McCarthy was sent to inquire / It would be a shame / If the nuns were to blame / So it had to be caused by a wire.
