Discover the adventure on the Atlas mountains on the DesertX Rally.
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.
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”.
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.
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.
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.

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.
In a sequel to Un-Finkeable, the mission for Un-Disclosed was to showcase the dynamic abilities of the DesertX Rally through the extreme terrains of the Australian landscape, fitted with just a few genuine accessories including Termignoni full exhaust, crash protection and Pirelli rally tyres. Ducati Adventure Specialist, Nick Selleck takes us on a mystery adventure ride with Ducati colleague and Product Sponsor of the DesertX range, Andrea Rossi. Together the two adventure riders navigate the baron plains of the Australian desert through to the alpine peaks with some cultural delights along the way.
Ridden by multi-titled champions Antoine Meo and Patrick Neisser, DesertX took center stage at the famous Erzberg iron mine, just as the Multistrada 1260 did in 2016.
Enjoy the Ducati riders’ journey, from their first sighting laps of the circuit to highlights of the race.
Antoine Meo conquers the Iron Road Prolog, a race open to single and twin-cylinder motorbikes with a spectacular course characterized by an ultra-fast climb (over 600 meters in height difference over 8.3 miles). But the DesertX also qualified as the only twin-cylinder in the Mitas Rocket Ride Superfinal.
Fortified by their experience together in the Erzbergrodeo, Antoine Meo and Patrick Neisser decided to take on a new challenge along one of North Africa’s most grueling and impressive routes, from the Todra Gorge to Marrakech.
In ancient times, travelling the Todra Gorge was the only way to reach Morocco from the Sahara Desert. An almost sacred challenge in which wayfarers would take on the mountain path.
Relive the adventure with this photo gallery. Join the tribute to a wonderful land and an extraordinary people, who, just a few days prior to the earthquake tragedy, welcomed us with real warmth and professionalism. We send them our message of hope at such a difficult time.
