Highlights of the Ducati DesertX Rally (MY23)

Whether you’re looking for off-road adventure or the competition of a rally-raid, DesertX Rally is here to help you conquer the toughest challenges and push yourself beyond every limit.

Beneath its surface, the DesertX Rally guards professional-level equipment, designed to tackle off-road routes with performance, precision and unrivalled control. Developed to tackle the toughest off-road routes, DesertX is a sports tool that is functional, specialist, technologically advanced and efficient, just like every Ducati.

Key features

High mudguard: As well as being a distinctive element of the off-road character of DesertX Rally, it allows for even the toughest off-roading, preventing any build-up of mud.

Carbon sump guard: It offers greater resistance with respect to the standard version on DesertX and is lighter than the Ducati Performance accessory version.

Mass-coloured plastics: The DesertX Rally plastics are unpainted and mass-coloured, a technique that ensures a significant aesthetic result and limits the visibility of any scratches.

Adhesive graphics: In thick PVC to ensure better protection of the bike’s surfaces and greater scope for customisation.

Dedicated rally seat: Complete with dedicated upholstery with a special texture that facilitates the rider’s movements for easier off-road riding.

Front fork: The KYB fork has 48mm stanchions, for greater stiffness and riding precision. It is closed cartridge, a technology that keeps the oil inside the cartridge pressurized to avoid cavitation, or the formation of vapor bubbles that would reduce the damping capacity and efficiency of the entire suspension.

Rear shock: Professional KYB rear shock with 46mm piston adjustable in compression at low and high speed. The rebound and pre-load are also adjustable. The shock ensures better oil flow and, hence, better behaviour during intensive off-road use.
