I'm not sure that's a (saturation of the) market effect that you're seeing right now. I get the impression that most dealers have put in reservations for SportClassics, maybe in hopes of some extra windfall, and are now putting "their" bikes on the floor. Same has happened with the MH900e: all 2,000 bikes were sold in a very short amount of time and a lot of people who wanted one, couldn't get one. Right after Ducati started shipping, bikes were available at dealerships. At a premium
The MH900e's were sold on a first come, first serve, basis and some 560 have made it to the US. With the SportClassic, 1,000 PS1000LE's will come to the US and another 1,000 for the rest of the world. At least that is what I've read in magazines, press-releases, etc.
