Some dealers quote 3.5 hours some quote 10-11 hours for the full termi install. I don't know if it's based on technician incompetence or some dealers are ....... thieves but I know the majority will install it for free if you paid msrp plus freight and set up.... You needed to negotiate prior to purchase and "if you got it like that" then this post is not for you... BUT as per DNA its to the dealer discretion if they wanna install it free or charge you.

Oh, and regardless of the VIN and year BS discussion, the bike is a homologation machine for the series and the model year is inconsequential. /QUOTE]

Yeah you are correct. I dont care 13/14.. Mine is in NZ on Monday!!

I ordered my 1199r from a dealer in Toronto. He advised me that the bike was coming from Ducati in California. (apparently its the north American hub?)

He also mentioned it was a 2014 sold as a 2013...

Received an email that the bike arrived at the dealer last week and I was provided the VIN for insurance.

My insurance company tells me it's a 2013 vin. From what OP and others are saying they received 2014's.. I'm confused.

As for the Termis dealer split the cost with me at 250$ for install.

Bugger mate, I'm in exactly the same boat now. After reading this thread a bit more I went and ran the VIN I was provided with.

Ducati Australia and my local NZ dealer assured me it is a 2014 model. But when checking the VIN through NZ imports services it came up as a 2013 model so I'm confused as well.

I found this out last night, so sent an email to my dealer. I'll catch up with him first thing tomorrow. But when I orders I had to wait 9 weeks, because I was told the 2013 bikes were not available and I would get a 2014 one.

I do trust this dealer a lot and have know the owner for many years. The bike arrives in New Zealand tomorrow then I'm suppose to collect it on the 12th (they are located in another city)

Ill post here after having a catch up with him tomorrow.

Ducati bikes from the factory destined for Canada land in Montreal first then head out to the rest of the country.

Same here the Vin of my bike is a 2013... I'll follow up as well on monday.

Looking forward to what your dealer has to say.

P.S. are they installing the termi's for free?
