Ducati has just launched something special for its Indian customers—a new maintenance plan called ‘Ducati Protect.’ If you’re a Ducati owner, you probably already know that while these machines are a thrill to ride, they aren’t the cheapest to maintain. With this new offering, Ducati is finally giving its riders a cost-effective way to keep their bikes in top shape without the usual service bill surprises.
Packages
The Ducati Protect plan comes in two flavors. There’s Ducati Protect Plus, which covers you for two years or 15,000 kilometers. And then there’s Ducati Protect Pro, which extends that to four years or 30,000 kilometers. It’s like choosing between a short-term gym membership or a full-blown wellness subscription—depending on how often you ride.
These plans are available for two popular Ducati lineups: the Monster and the Multistrada V4 range. That includes every V4 variant—V4, V4 S, Pikes Peak, and Rally. So, no matter which beast you’re taming, there’s a plan waiting for you.
Here’s what the pricing looks like:
Model | Protect Plus (2Y/15K km) | Protect Pro (4Y/30K km) |
---|---|---|
Monster | ₹25,999 | ₹68,999 |
Multistrada V4 | ₹29,999 | ₹52,999 |
Coverage
Let’s talk about what’s included. These packages take care of all scheduled maintenance. That means parts and labor for the regular services are covered. You won’t have to reach for your wallet every time the service light comes on.
But—there’s always a but—items that wear out over time like brake pads, clutch plates, and tyres aren’t part of the deal. Those fall under consumables and you’ll still need to pay for them separately.
A nice bonus? These plans are transferable. So, if you decide to upgrade or sell your bike before the plan runs out, the new owner can continue to enjoy the benefits. That’s a win-win—it boosts resale value and gives the next rider some peace of mind too.
Benefits
Why should you care about Ducati Protect? Well, think of it like this—you’re locking in your service costs at today’s prices. With inflation and ever-rising costs of premium bike parts, that’s a big deal. It’s like freezing your gym fees before they go up every year.
Plus, having all your servicing done at an authorized Ducati center ensures your bike gets expert care and maintains a proper service history. When the time comes to sell, that record will help fetch a better price and show buyers that your bike’s been well-loved.
And let’s be honest—Ducatis are legendary, but they can be pricey to maintain. This plan takes a big chunk of that worry away, letting you focus more on riding and less on budgeting for surprise service costs.
All in all, Ducati Protect is a welcome addition to the Indian market. It simplifies ownership and adds value—something Ducati owners have been waiting for.
