About the DesertX
The DesertX is Ducati's first genuine off-road motorcycle — a Dakar-inspired adventure bike that takes the V-twin engine to the dirt. Long-travel suspension (230 mm front), 21-inch front wheel, and aluminium side bags prepare it for extended off-road exploration, while 170 hp and Ducati's electronics suite ensure it's equally competent on tarmac. The Rally adds even more extreme off-road capability with a 30 L fuel tank and dedicated rally-stage ergonomics.
