Ducati Monster 796 Insurance

Ducati Monster 796(M796) is the twin sibling of Monster 795. Where 795 is an Asia specific motorcycle, the 796 is aimed at Europe/America. It is one of the most accessible bikes from the premium bike maker not only in terms of pricing but as well as performance & handling. Being later in its product lifecycle when launched in India gave Ducati the chance to price the bike at a mouth-watering price. Although currently it has been discontinued in India in favour of its bigger sibling Monster 821.

  • Bike’s dimensions are 2100 mm x 780 mm x 1060 mm (L x W x H)

Power & Performance:

M796 is powered by 803cc Desmodromic L-twin engine. The power delivery is brisk on M796 with crisp response from the word go.

Braking & Handling:

M796 is light for its size at 187kg wet. You can carve corners on the mountains, ride fast on highways, cut through traffic you name it. Aided by a good suspension setup the M796 handles our roads rather well. Bike has 43mm upside down telescopic forks in the front & dual shock absorbers at the rear. It rides on 120/70 17’ front & 180/55 17’ rear wheels.

  • The seating position on M796 is on the higher side & meant for taller riders. The foot pegs are rear set & you sit on it with a slightly forward stance.
  • M796 gets a Twin 320mm disc brakes in front & a single 245mm disc at the rear.
  • The bike sadly misses out on ABS.

What Insurance cover to opt for:

M796 is an attention grabber with oodles of power. Also being a CBU the parts are all imported from Thailand/Italy & that makes it a costly bike to keep & maintain.

  • A premium product like this needs 0% depreciation insurance as it goes a long way in keeping the repair bills down in case of a fall.
  • M796 is an attention magnet as it looks absolutely stunning. That is why it is a good idea to have an insurance that gives you complete cover from theft.
  • Always prefer an insurance that gives you cashless benefit.
