From a market perspective, seasonal instant discounts are a textbook move aimed at leveling demand and turning over inventory. Knocking 500 euros off the MT-07 and MT-09 during the peak summer season. In a mature market like France, this kind of simplicity works. What the numbers show is that how a manufacturer compensates through promotions for price rises caused by regulation is exactly where their skill shows.

Does the summer bike sales season in France actually get that lively?

Touring demand spikes there in line with the vacation season.

With scooters included too, it looks like they're targeting the commuter crowd broadly as well.

The MT-09 being included is quietly great news.

I kind of suspect an instant discount just means the sticker price was set higher to begin with.

I see that view, but an instant cash discount during peak summer demand is simply appreciated.

Honda and KTM will probably come out with matching discounts for the summer sales push too.

A 500-euro instant discount is a pretty meaningful amount for an MT-07-class bike.
