More problems with the proposed swap to a 749R , the model is unrecognised by my insurer (and some others) as the bike does not yet have an ABI code so they cannot group it :mad:
Has anyone else heard of this problem ? :(
Not in the same league, but when I bought my 800ss last year it was a brand new model at the time and I had exactly the same problems. Although yours is probably because of the "R" at the end, mine was a cc issue, "we've got a 750ss or a 900ss are you sure it's not an import." was all i kept hearing.
In the end I scoured the ads in MCN and after about 10 calls I came across a company called Insure, the guy on the phone took my details, did his homework and phoned me back about an hour later with a very competitive quote.
Give em a try 0870 6080015
Good luck.

Wise up Y****wfriedegg.
If you cant insure the bike get rid of it, go and get yourself a nice sensible CG125 ans treat it to a tin of yellow Humbrol paint.
Now here`s the clever bit, if you get matt yellow its a good undercoat for the red top coat!!:)
Boy, these colour jokes (or not) are getting reaaaaaallllllllyyyyyyy old. Haven't you got anything better?
yellowisfriedegg,have you tried Ducati Insurance (08704 106060)?I guess if they dont list the 749R,nobody does.
Oh yeah,I'm with Felix,red v. yellow.........Boring!!!:yawn:
