Is there a thread regarding the best PCP deals as there is within the Car Buying section, albeit lease deals? (I realise some hate PCP but for others its a good way to monthly fund a bike)

I recently had an email from Lings: Africa Twin https://www.lings.com/honda-bikes/new-bike-offers/... 5ppm excess.
£135 pm plus £1524 dep over 37 months = £176 pm

I really love the look of the Fireblade but apparently not a great road bike, perhaps it is, I would need try one: https://www.lings.com/honda-bikes/new-bike-offers/... 9ppm excess

£168 pm plus £4580 dep over 37 months = £291 pm

Didn't about three million people on here get Africa Twins for free a few years ago and then all decide they were st?

Or didn't I read all of that thread properly...?

I haven’t had a ride on a new Fireblade but from what I’ve read it’s probably one of the few bikes out there you would want not for the road,unless you’re a smurf.

Yes, dirt cheap! Wasn't they £50-60 a month?

£69.99 with nothing down. Deal of a lifetime that was.

Rode it everywhere, proper adventure type stuff, then returned to Honda at the end of the deal with no issues.

They do get a bit rusty if you don't keep on top of it, otherwise a great bike.

That is nowhere near a great deal, £4.5k down (who on earth does this?) then £6k in monthlies then what a £10k balloon?

There was a Harley deal a couple of years back for their 750 'thing', zero deposit and £49 a month



I'll be on the lookout for some cheap deals next year although there is a bike shortage at the minute so the manufacturers are not as inclined to discount to shift stock.

Except that most would pay £49 a month to not have to ride a Harley

Great idea. It will probably be like the car leases to start, with no real deals to be had, but surely eventually it will return to normal.

I could do with a cheap winter bike for £50-70 a month.

Despite not being everyone's cuppa (myself included) that was a cracking deal. Cheaper than lots of people spend monthly on a mobile phone... and you get a bloody motorbike hehe

Incredible deal, £70 a month! Hopefully those prices may return, please, anyone with a sniff post the latest. I receive emails from quite a few dealers and will post the latest.
