Professional off-road suspension
The bike offers an additional 20mm of suspension travel, for a total of 250mm at the front and 240mm at the rear. Both the 48mm closed cartridge front fork and 46mm rear shock are produced in collaboration with KYB. The DesertX Rally flaunts a technology used on MX and enduro bikes that guarantees homogeneous behavior and the necessary support even during the most extreme use.
Lighter, more technical wheels
The DesertX Rally is more efficient off-road thanks to wheels that are lighter and more technical, with carbon steel spokes machined from solid hubs and high-resistance Takasago Excel rims.

The front wheel retains its 21”x2.15” size, while the rear is narrower than that of the DesertX, measuring 18”x4”.
Lighter components
The DesertX Rally is more efficient off-road thanks to its dedicated wheels, carbon sump guard, and billet aluminum rear brake and gear level. It weighs about the same as the DesertX (just 2 pounds more), but the sensation is completely different.
Off-roading soul
The DesertX Rally is even more efficient off road equipped with the state-of-the-art off-road componentry. The front brake line is split, to allow for the mounting of the high mudguard. The Öhlins steering damper is adjustable and attached directly to the handlebar.

The gear lever and rear brake pedal are in billet aluminum. The sump guard is in forged carbon, more resistant than the standard version on the DesertX and lighter than the version currently available as a Ducati Performance accessory for the DesertX.
Solid-colored plastics
The plastics are solid-colored and unpainted, so any scratches are less visible. The graphics are adhesive, in thick PVC, to better protect the surfaces of the bike and ensure greater scope for customization.

The colors and graphics of the new livery take up those of the DesertX with which Antoine Meo triumphed in the Erzbergrodeo Prologue.
