I sell heavy equipment, new and used. Leasing companies will lease ANYTHING its all in how it's structured
Exactly. The fact is that a Harley is a perfect lease item for the finance co and the consumer. The high end value vs. cap cost is great for the low payment. The only challenge for the finance co is keeping the cash flow positive due to the structure.
It will provide new sales to consumers that otherwise wouldn't have purchased a new bike and will bring new people into the bike world. There will be a great source of low mileage bikes at proper end values for the dealers to profit from. Not sure how they will handle their lease terminations but that isn't rocket science.
