Yeah, but will they do 0% finance?

Actually, after the endless trouble that one of my friends had with his V11
I wouldn't touch one even at that price.

Quite.

I was really surprised at the prices of the range as a whole.

The used example I saw for sale, whilst only 6 or so months old had suffered
badly from the weather though, the black painted engine casing was in a bad
way.

Nah, that's the on-the-road price, not the in-the-showroom price. It's
amazing how much they depreciate if you actually ride 'em. ;-)

He was in DiRE a couple of months ago; problems with his gearbox mainly. He
needed new parts that just couldn't be supplied.

Eventually he was offered a full refund on the bike.
