That kit is currently on back order at Ducati, I expect the status will change just after the end of the month when the factory goes back to full staff (but dont quote me!)
Check you dealer has actually ordered it!!! Often dealers note that the item is not on stock and hold back the order until the stock status changes to available.
The Ducati system relys on dealers ordering what they want , when enough dealers order an item (to meet minium quantities) then they get the kits from Termignoni put together, if no dealers order it, they never get ordered by the factory as they have no way of knowing that anyone wants one! hence horror stories of guys ordering parts with the dealers and waiting months and months. if you think of the amount of dealers worldwide, if they all use the system correctly then the minimum order quantity gets hit pretty soon.
Quite often we order stuff listed as not available and its there in a week.
Termi kits for the 749/999 have always been hard to get, but now the models are set to remain the same until 2007 at the earliest, they should start making the kits available- we hope!
