My mate in Devon says a local dealer wants £50 PER WHEEL to fit tyres.Obviously the dealer has no interest in doing
customer supplied tyres.
FTFY.
That's the fuck-off-because-you-didn't-buy-them-here price.

I've never balanced motorbike wheels. Never even noticed a difference. I don't pay anyone to do anything for me though.

How close are Norton to going bust (again)?

Pretty close if they can offer a 125 mile ex-demo on a PCP deal for £20 deposit and payments of £20 a month for two years.

A monkey for two years rent?
I've laid a bigger deposit* down for renting a bike in the olden days.
*a monetary deposit
Whilst it's cheap, it's still at the end of the day new-fangled tosh.

It was only one bike, there was over 200 of them available at £69 down and £69/month for two years on a pcp, I nearly got one but didn’t want to spend a grand on replacing all my kit I’ve finally got rid of.

It seems that Norton are OK, as the deal was set up by the finance company that only shares a name with Norton.
If any other finance companies want to offer a similar deal on a Ducati Panigale, I'm all ears
