This news is a couple of months old now. Ok so the hallowed name among motorcycle brands, Ducati is in India finally.. big deal.. what’s in it for me? There is a saying in Hindi which when translated into English sounds like, "One should measure the length of the blanket and then spread his limbs".

The prices actually makes even the Japanese CBU’s in India seem value for money..
Who am I to spoil the party of the lucky ones who can afford them..
I have no qualms to accept that these Italian beauties are authentic pieces of art. Unlike other marques, the Italians at least don’t need to "hide" their labor of love under flashy sticker jobs. But just as the Taj Mahal makes every guy next door feel miserably poor in front of his lover, these exotic 2 wheelers don’t do any good for the "biker next door" in me. Heck, I am not even an auto journalist who can look forward for a free ride on these lovely Italian Jobs.
The cherry to the very expensive Italian pie is the price tag (10 to 45 lakhs) of these bikes. It actually makes even the Japanese CBU’s in India seem value for money. But who am I to spoil the party of the lucky ones who can afford them.
Anyway, I am just making this post to Chronicle Ducati’s entry into India. Namaste Ducati..!!

Interesting pricing there for the 1098 and 1198... 1198 being way better and far more powerfull (imagine what a 100cc can do when comming from an Italian Twin) is priced way lower to the 1098....
I mean are you sure about the price of the 1198... :o 24(something... somthing) lakhs for the 1198S is a loot!!
Seeing the capabilities of the 1198...
Even I am surprised by the pricing of the 1098 with respect to the 1198.. but the pricing has been taken from xBhp. Will try to confirm it.
By the way the 1098 does not feature in the Ducati 2010 line in their official website..!!
Actually, there was no reason for Ducati to continue with the 1098 after the arrival of the 1198S to compete in the Liter class segment, because it's way better!! the additional 100cc over the 1098 has worked like magic and this is comming just at the right time, when the MotoGP arena is about to open for the liter class!!
Discontinue a variant in India and that becomes a BIG issue. If the foreigners discontinue a model, the price touches sky high. LOL
I totally agree with vipin.

All the prices are way off the mark. Please edit this article.
Prices were correct at the time of the launch.. but right now the prices might have been revised Plus new models have been added too.
I agree that a new post needs to be made for the current models
