"The good news is — yes, there is good news! — that at least in the short term it’s unlikely these closures and interruptions will affect availability of new models or spare parts as our 2020 riding season gets underway.

Pierer Mobility affirms “The availability of all models is guaranteed for the upcoming start of the season in the worldwide dealer network.” In addition, Ducati has stated “all the support services for our customers are guaranteed, first and foremost the supply of spare parts.”

And yes, despite the world going into full-tilt, toilet paper-hoarding panic mode, we should still get out and ride our motorcycles. In fact, let’s consider it a public safety service. After all, motorcycling is social distancing at its finest. Complete with gloves, full-face coverage and fresh air."
