Can you change from standard Hyper to SP if you have just received the Reg?

Discussion in 'Ducati General Discussion' started by Phantomfighter, Jun 9, 2013.

  1. I was sitting here oogling over the Hypermotard SP, I have just ordered the Stealth version and was looking at all the mods I would like to add, mainly carbon. I was thinking hang on a minute, each part is around £200+ each. Im going to reach the £2300 difference quite soon and that not even with the Ohlins rear shock, adjustable forks etc etc.

    So, if I have received a numberplate and a vin number etc from the dealer on a piece of paper. Does this mean that I am "stuck" with the standard as I have paid only a deposit for that bike.

    Im happy with the standard but just wanted to ask. :upyeah:
    (although its probably quite clear that I would happily eat a tin of tuna and an apple for the foreseeable future to get the SP)

  4. if it means more money, the dealer will probably be quite accomodating.

  8. Unless theres a registration thing, ie if you are now the keeper, its become a used bike

  9. ^^^ what I was going to say. If the bike has been registered and that VIN is now associated with that reg. no. Then don't think they'll be that accommodating as it'll be a very low miles used bike.

  10. It's an interesting conundrum. I am inclined to think that the standard bike is now registered but I have no idea what the outcome will be.

  11. Me thinks you are a the owner of a sexy new stealth and you would be most welcome to trade it in for a extra sexy SP, Oooo sorry sir, but the stealth is a used bike and I can give you £2000 less for it than ya paid !:redface:

    my SP is great :wink:

  12. The answer is YES!!!

    The problem is that ebike don't have any Hypermotard 821s on their system so I can't add it onto my present insurance. A hyper 769 + £53.

    So, I would have to add it onto a new policy with 0 NCD as you can't use the NCD from the other policy. Bennetts wouldn't insure me on their multibike policy as I have a new Multstradai too... GRHHHHH

  14. Just tried it. Oh I love wasting 10 minutes filling in the forms for it to tell me they can't do a quote over the internet

  15. Just phone them, its easier. May be better to short term your current policy, and take a new one with the NCD in place for both.

  16. You can go off people you know:mad:

  17. Sorry dude, don't hate me.

    I was thinking, if all else fails. I could get a standard hyper insurance then once ebike get their ass into gear I could cancel the single Hyper policy and add the bike onto the ebike policy.
