The result of a collaboration between Centro Stile Ducati and Research and Development, DesertX truly embodies the ‘form follows function’ concept. Every design choice is guided by the need to ensure resistance, protection and control on the toughest terrain, for a contemporary aesthetic that instantly communicates solidity, reliability and authentic off‑road attitude.
The new DesertX is the result of intensive field testing, where every off-roading experience translates into concrete evolution: more natural control, greater usability in every situation and an even more pronounced off-road attitude, without relinquishing the pleasure and precision of road riding.
Every line of the bike responds to a real need: transforming functionality into an essential, dynamic form. The lower front end makes for a lighter and more dynamic bike where every movement is more natural, while the rear light design further emphasizes the bike’s off-road personality.
890 cc V2 twin: balance and precision.
110 hp with 70% of torque already available at 3000 rpm, to tackle obstacles with ease and enjoy a smooth, satisfying response on any terrain.

A solid structure, a precise response. Every element of the bike has been reconceived to offer greater solidity and ease of use when off-roading and keep maintenance complications to a minimum.

Riders of Bridgwater Limited is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Riders of Bridgwater Limited to act as a credit broker, not as a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.
We can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow. Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required.
