Cupertino, Calif (13 October 2009) - Ducati and FreedomRoad Financial announcing today a "last call" for the FORZA DUCATI financing program, which concludes at the end of October.
Running July 10 through October 31, the FORZA DUCATI program is significant in that it incorporates the entire Ducati lineup. This means all models and all years are eligible for 6.75% financing at terms up to 48 months, providing they are brand new and being registered for the first time.
In addition to a low finance rate on the model of the customer's choice, Ducati is offering two excitingprograms as an additional benefit to those purchasing a new motorcycle. During the program period newDucati owners may choose between generous trade-in allowances, or a year of "Full Factory Support" onselect models.
The Trade-in Allowance program assists owners of older Ducatis and other manufacturer's models in obtaining one of Ducati's latest handmade motorcycles with minimal out-of-pocket costs. This allowance is available for Hypermotard, Monster 1100 and 848 Superbike models; making the purchase of a new Ducati significantly more affordable.
An alternative benefit to those purchasing a new Ducati is the ability to incorporate the "Full FactorySupport" service promotion; which enables a Ducati owner to simply ride and enjoy their new bike. Thiscovers the costs for the first year of regularly scheduled maintenance updates on 2008 and 2009 Ducatimodels. All a customer needs to do for qualification is purchase their new Ducati from a participating dealer by October 31, fill out the program enrollment form and start riding.
