    Not really interested in the finance stuff, just a lovely bike :cool:

    Nice bike but don't buy anything on HP or finance surely a cheaper bike would be a lot more sensible

    buy it on the never never and give it back after 2 years - i look forward to the depression on month 23 and you have just one month left and then a garage full of kit and no frame

    enjoy

    Heh heh, this thread has tickled me. It is indeed a nice bike but the new posters coming on read like a tv late night sales pitch :)

    sorry, but that comment makes no sense at all!? do you not have a mortgage or a car on finance? this is how we afford to buy things out of our reach. sure there are risks, but minimal...its a bike at the end of the day..if I end up with no frame then I dont ride for a while...no biggie!

    Nice bike.

    But this lease arrangement has garnered my interest. What happens if, God forbid, you stack it and the frame is a write-off? Do you still pay the £41 a month like you would if you had a finance agreement on a car?

    Lease company recommends getting the bike insured to cover you in the case of such a situation. Also to cover theft.
