    The highlight of the training will be a track day with Troy Bayliss. This will be limited to experienced riders only. A batch of 5 will get to ride with him, so as to best impart personal instruction.

    The courses will start from 17th April onwards. The Troy Bayliss academy will be on the 25th-26th June and 16th-17th July. The cost of the courses will vary from 350 to 2100 Euros.

    The bikes will vary between the Monster 796, Multistrada 1200, Hypermotard, 1199 Panigale and the 1199 Panigale S, depending upon the level of the course.

    All the tracks are in Italy. It would be a wonderful initiative for Ducati to undertake in India, so that the Indian owners can get a chance to use their machines to their potential.

      nice initiative

      though there are a few grey areas...

      they haven't mentioned what they mean by basic/intermediate/master courses.
      i mean for all we know basic might mean - how to ride a motorcycle OR how to handle a motorcycle on a track

      wish someone could put some more light on the event so that if one wants - one can make a booking in a more educated manner..
      Biking is a religion, not a hobby!!

        Basic Training -

        Never ridden a bike? The Basic Course provides a safe and controlled environment where you'll learn the basics of riding a motorcycle. It doesn't matter if you've never squeezed a clutch lever or don't even know where it is!Whether you're totally new to riding or have only tagged along as a passenger, the goal of this course is to kick-start your life as a motorcyclist. Learning something new can be intimidating and the goal of our highly skilled instructors is to remove those intimidating barriers. You'll find out how with the right support, learning to ride can be easy and safe.
        You'll be learning on the Monster 796, the lightest and most charismatic bike in its class. Its low seat height and easy handling make it the perfect bike for a new rider. You'll receive individual riding sessions as well as a just enough theory to make your transformation from non-rider to rider immediate and enjoyable.
        The basic course will only be held if the minimum number of 12 riders is reached; otherwise, you will be contacted and given the choice of selecting another available date or receiving a full refund of the registration fee.
        The basic course is divided into groups of four and each person will be taught by a qualified instructor. The course includes four individual practice sessions, alternating with theory sessions designed to teach you the basics of motorcycle riding (position on the bike, starting, braking and cornering).
        The bike used in this course is the Monster 796 with a restricted engine to ensure maximum safety for novice riders.
        The required gear includes leathers, gloves, boots and a full-face helmet. If you can't provide any of these items, you can hire them when you purchase a course online at this site (see the 'Clothing requirements' section for complete details on the required gear).
        You must be 18 or older to enroll in the basic course, although a motorcycle licence is not required.
        From the website given above.
        Biking is not about what you have between your legs, its all about how well you use it!!!!!!!
