for a potted 5 minute Powerpoint presentation all about the Ducati Owners Club

 

 

Benefits of membership include six copies of "Desmo", our excellent magazine, each year. This will keep you in touch with everything the self-respecting Ducatisti needs to know.

We have a branch network that covers the country, giving you the opportunity to meet locally, have a social night out and swap stories of derring-do and mechanical miracles or catastrophe over a few pints.

We also have focus groups dedicated to your model of Ducati, accessible through the Forum, and specifically servicing your own needs and interests.

We associate with Ducati UK to provide track days for the benefit of the braver members, who wish to explore their own personal limits within the relative safety of some of the most well known circuits in the UK. No racing licence is required, just a full road licence and a properly prepared road or race bike.

For the road rider who enjoys the atmosphere and drunken jolity of camping rallies, we hold three each year, in the North, South and Midlands, as well as two one-day events during the Isle of Man TT.

The DOC offers a forum, which gives club members a chance to communicate directly, share information, and air their views, all from the comfort and convenience of your own PC.

Technical help is provided by some of the foremost names in the Ducati world, as well as the owners themselves.

For those who like to do their own servicing work, we have a range of factory tools covering a huge range of bikes from the singles era to the latest superbikes. All available to members at a very reasonable cost.

We also have a huge range of Technical Literature, ranging from owners manuals for the 1960s singles, to parts books for the bevel engined 70s bikes, to workshop manuals for the most recent models. All available at very reasonable prices, or even free!

There are discounts on parts and accessories from many dealers.

We have arrangements with several major providers of insurance on preferential terms for DOC members. This alone could easily save you more than the cost of your membership.

The most recent addition to the club services is machine dating. The DOCGB is now officially recognised by the DVLA as the authority able to confirm the age of a Ducati Motorcycle in order to obtain an age related registration number. This service is free to members, but non-members can use it at a cost too. For full details click here.

Think you are already a member?

We often receive requests for club services from Ducati owners who believe they are DOCGB members.

Please look at your membership card. If it looks like this:

or this

...then you are indeed a member of the Ducati Owners Club GB, and have paid our subscription.

If you have a card that looks like this:

or this

...then you have obtained free membership of the factory sponsored and run Desmo Owners Club. The inclusion of the Ducati Owners Club GB name on the card does not indicate membership of this club and the confusion is not of our making. The DOCGB is a completely independent volunteer run club, as we have been since 1974. Buying a new Ducati does not give you automatic right to membership, but you could always ask your dealer to include it in the price!
