http://www.ducatisti.co.th/pre-owned-bikes...php?id=00000023 At first glance, I thought "Price = 285,000 Baht."

But that was just the down payment

For less than 25,000 Baht more, one can buy a new Monster 696!

Seems someone doesn't know what they are doing - advertising or paying this asking price

Erm the 696 is 580 ish isnt it ??

You know how people are in Thailand tho.. Think they can own things a couple of years and get back what they put in..

Yep, it's 580k Baht, even on my computer.

So 285 down plus take-over someones payments for 17 months @ 15,921 = 555,657 all in. Thats 24,343 less than the 580,000 for brand spankin' new. Plus 5 months class A insurance thrown in, thats worth around 5,000. It's only got 1500 kms. It also comes with a 2-year warranty (from date of purchase). Assuming it hasn't been down and its had the service done, someone will pick it up. Guarantee it - the 696's are flying out of the dealership. Someone won't want to wait for a new one to arrive from Italy. And most Ducatis don't depreciate the way cars do as you drive out of the lot.
