Good choice, you wont be disappointed.

Some insurers wouldnt insure me, but Last July I insured my M800S for £540ish fully comp with £400 excess through Carol Nash, I got breakdown assistance with that as well.
I had 0 NCB, had only just got my license am over 40, Garage the bike, live in Preston and have 6 points.

This July Carol Nash wanted £378 however I paid £330 with only £175 excess and breakdown assistance through Ducati Insurance (its a Norwich Union policy). The only difference is that I now have 1yr NCB and have done an advanced rider training course.

I would shop around if I were you, Ducati insurance can be found in the links section of this site.
You will get extra discount with some insurers if you garage the bike, have an alarm on it and datatag it, having said that the standard immobiliser scored maximum points with Ducati.
Insurers also like advanced training and IAM/RoSPA qualifications so I would also consider that once you have got some miles under your belt

Good luck
