PART 3 Epic North Coast 500 Adventure
Chris Northover - Bikeworld

''I think this Ducati DesertX is one of the best looking Adventure bikes out there - you've got to be able to back that up with performance and this thing really does'' 

Adam Child - Bennetts

''This bike has been so eagerly anticipated - it goes as well as it looks!' 

Mike Booth - 44Teeth

''It's hard to find a motorcycle that is as good off-road as it is on-road, but I think Ducati might have actually done it! This is a very, very, very good allrounder of a motorcycle, and ive been properly impressed''
