braking power is never in question. Those
M50s clamp down on twin 320mm discs
and are matched to Brembo's cornering
ABS, as is the case on every production
Ducati for sale right now. The rear brakes
consist of a twin-piston caliper clamping
down on a 245mm disc.
The electronics are a large part of the
DesertX. Controlled by a Bosch IMU and
much like the KTM 890 Adventure R, the
DesertX has almost every electronic bell and
whistle you could hope for, including six rid-
ing modes, including the off-road-dedicated
Enduro and Rally modes; four power modes
(Above) The dash is a bit unique, to say the least.
((Right) Crash bars thankfully come as standard,

color scheme so easily. Below) All loaded up with
the optional soft case luggage.
