Thank you sir. You convinced me to get a desert x. We share human specs. My first love was a ducati monster many years ago. Let motorcycling go because cops kept harassing me. Now I’m older, my children are grown and am a lawyer. Going to ride again and enjoy life in my Desertx.

I have driven it last week. Feels light in stand and even lighter driving. Super off-road and surprisingly extrem amazing on road. Coming out the corner in sport mode and signing a 10 meter black string on the road while I have driven the bike just 15 minutes. I love it and I can‘t wait to get mine delivered.

Dope! I would not have said you were under 6 ft. I have the same inseam but taller torso. The bike looks amazing! It literally looks like the bike was designed by movie set designers from the 80s for big block buster sci fi films. The fairing and wheel fender looks not only futuristic from 80s styling stand point but organically designed as well. Yet I love the slender and sport even chassis tail and seat. Sick! Love it!

Am I correct in understanding that if the aux fuel tanks are added as an accessory, this choice voids the ability to install the pannier racks? A one or the other choice?

@AMSDucatiDallas 2 жыл бұрын

That is correct. No hard luggage works because of the framework for the tanks. If you wanted the aux fuel tank and additional luggage space, you would have the ability to add in soft luggage either by Ducati Performance Accessories (amsducati.com/desert-x-soft-side-panniers) or via third party like mosko moto or kreiga or wolf man. 👍

Good to hear the feedback; thank you. For most American journeys (North and South); fuel range isn’t much of a concern. However, in Alaska and Yukon…it is. So, some trips might necessitate the GSA and some might work better with the Desert X.

🤔 Truth bomb....... If it had a Yamaha badge on it there wouldn't be any available in the US market. Yamaha Japan produces the base T7s for the US market. The largest US Yamaha dealers only get two or three per year, at most. My local Dealer (largest in Texas) got ONE T7 in 2022, was scheduled to receive ONE T7 in 2023. Yamaha France produces the Euro market T7s (World Raid, Extreme, Rally, Tour models), NONE of these are provided to the US market. My local Yamaha dealer invited me to come out to a Yamaha day event back in April.........for an opportunity to sit on a T7. 🤪 So generous of Yamaha, invite me out to a two day event to sit on a bike. I've already got over 3.6k miles on my three month old DesertX, and that's with the extreme heat Texas is experiencing this summer.

I love it but once again Ducati (and other manufacturers) have missed a trick. Seat height is far too high for the shorter rider. I’m 5ft 7” and wouldn’t want to have a butt cheek off the seat whilst tippy toeing. Come on Ducati surely you can accommodate the shorter rider with a low suspension option!

@AMSDucatiDallas 2 жыл бұрын

You're going to be hard pressed to find a dual sport with a dirt bias that does not have a higher seat. Ground clearance and suspension and needed for that segment. Marty has a 30" inseam and is 5ft 7in tall and would wholeheartedly disagree with you that the seat height is too high for the shorter rider.

I recognise hype when I see it. I tell you what we can't egnore. The size and the weight. The time of mamut of rides like this is over. Ducati missed the market. The sales for this kinda of bike are down. Low displacement mid weight under 500cc is the way to go. Even the T7 soon will be considered too big. People are realising they can do th same or more with their crf300l... Don't get me wrong. Love the bike though!

@TiagoRuivo 2 жыл бұрын

@Tim Brandtbig bikes are not selling like in the past. They still sell a lot but the market has been decaying for the last 5 years. Good example of that the 310 gs. BMW did that because they realised that the big hogs stalled. No one buys a 1200 g's to go off road. They are all city bikes. When was the last time you saw one covered in mud? It's a status symbol now more than an utility.
