Ever since its release in India, the Duke range of motorcycles from the Austrian motorcycle manufacturer - KTM has always been a huge hit. The Duke 390 is no different. When you buy a stellar bike like this, you need to keep in mind that repairing this vehicle in case of damages could be quite expensive. Similarly, an unexpected theft could lead to a huge loss. Here is where two-wheeler insurance can help you out. In addition to these benefits, two-wheeler insurance also ensures that you are on the right side of the law, since you are legally required to have a bike insurance cover in India. In this article, you’ll find out more about the type of insurance that’s mandatory, the other types of coverage, the add-on covers you can choose, and much more.

Planning to insure your KTM Duke 390? Well, the first step to doing this is to understand the different types of insurance plans available for you to choose from. More specifically, there are two main kinds of two-wheeler insurance plans you can purchase on Bajaj Markets, namely third party insurance and comprehensive insurance. Take a look at the sections below to get a better idea of these insurance plans.
This kind of bike insurance specifically covers third-party liabilities. So, in case your KTM Duke accidentally injures another person or damages third party property, you need not worry about paying for these unexpected liabilities out of pocket. Your third party cover handles them for you. But this is not the only reason to get a third party cover. You see, the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, makes this kind of insurance plan mandatory in India.
A comprehensive bike insurance plan offers you the benefit of third party liability coverage as well as own damage coverage. This means you need not worry about the cost of getting your KTM Duke 390 repaired after an accident or a disaster. The insurance plan covers the expenses involved. Plus, it also offers coverage in case of theft, as well as personal accident coverage.
Every two-wheeler insurance plan comes with certain specific inclusions. Before you buy a cover for your KTM Duke, you need to know what the plan includes, so you can promptly raise a claim in case any of the insured incidents occur. Check out the inclusions in your plan below.
Any third-party liability coverage
Any personal injury during an accident
Any damages to your bike due to an accident
Any damages to your bike due to a man-made calamity
Repairs and replacements due to any accident
Just like how there are specific inclusions, there are also specific exclusions that you should be aware of. These situations and damages are not covered by your two-wheeler insurance plan, so you cannot register a claim in such cases. Here are the exclusions you should know about.
Damages on account of regular wear and tear
Damages that occur when your policy is not active
Damages in case of illegal driving (i.e. driving without a valid license or driving under the influence of an intoxicant)
Damages due to war-like situations
Mechanical or electrical breakdowns of your bike
You can also enhance the protection your KTM Duke enjoys with the help of additional riders. These riders or add-on covers are optional, and you can add them to your base plan at the time of purchase or renewal. Check out the add-on covers available for the two-wheeler insurance plans on Bajaj Markets.
In case you or the pillion rider is injured during an accident involving your insured bike, the treatment costs are covered by this rider.
Worried about depreciation cuts with time? Then this is the cover for you, since it ensures that you are covered against the depreciation value of your bike during a claim.
This rider gives you spot assistance in case you are stranded mid-journey, and ensures that help is just round the corner.
With this cover, your claim amount will be equal to the complete value of the bike as per the purchase invoice, in case of total loss.
Applying for your two-wheeler insurance plan on Bajaj Markets is a breeze. All you need to do is follow the steps outlined below.
Enter your mobile number and your vehicle’s registration number.
Fill up the application form available online.

Knowing the insurance claim process is essential, so that you are not inconvenienced during a time of need. So, if you’ve been wondering how you can file a claim with your insurer in case any of the insured incidents involving your bike occur, you’ll be relieved to know that there are two ways to raise a claim, and both of these are entirely online, with no physical branch visits whatsoever.
The steps involved in registering a cashless claim are slightly different from the steps involved in raising a reimbursement claim. For better clarity about these, check out the steps listed below.
