I put over 13k miles on my DesertX in the 1st year of ownership. Absolutely STELLAR motorcycle. I have the full race Termignoni titanium exhaust and Evo tune. 😂
Enjoyable first ride review - and I agree with pretty much everything you said. It is a lovely thing - but with the Audi paint, off road pack, heated grips and spots plus installation (never been charged installation for options before) close to £17.5K - which is a lot compared to the Triumph 900 Rally Pro or the GS900 but to me, and it is a personal thing, it is much more special (and looks so much better). Obviously with racks, luggage, Bluetooth, sat nav mounts etc as you say could have cost a lot more. The Rally was announced when my bike was on order and the dealer would have let me change to that but I stuck with the “base” model (but slightly peeved I now have a “base model”). Whilst it looked great, the Rally seat was just too high for me and in similar trim to mine £3K more. Also I’d spent a day and a half on the standard bike and loved it so why change!
Please do not compare the DX to triumph with front rake angle that is unstable off road - this is eliminating triumph completely.
Nice vid. Love the new logo
Charly Sinewan on CZcams is bashing around South America with one of these - an upgrade from the BMW F800GS. Great to see how it fares in the wild getting dropped a few times a week and the effort involved in picking it up again.
Great info, thanks. Looks like you were in a group with usernamekate and Lillie on the V4 Streetfighters - small world!
Great vid. Thanks 👍
Lovely for riding motorbikes and cycling along Edgehill.
Kineton has a decent cafe too (Gilks).
Finbarr Saunders strikes again! 😂
Fnarrr! 😂
Nice logo Mr Dan ❤
Amazing review as always! She looks srunning design-wise. Good to know about the extras. Its inevitable that the price will steeply increase, but i look at it as an investment 😍
Great video as always, would be interested to know whether you would go for one of these or the new Triumph 900 Rally Pro???
Oh dan we won’t say anything about your knuckles lol
Great review thanks Dan, sounds like a good all rounder if you can deal with the height. PS I'll let you off calling me James 😂
Oh shoot! I'm so sorry John! 😂
@@Englishbikerdan don't worry, I've had far worse 😂
Lovely Bike great vid 👍
Same engine as the new Monster, no?
Yes, and the Supersport and Hypermotard.
Can't believe they let you hooligans out on such nice bikes 🙂
Hate it when the wind comes in your face 😂😂😂😂
THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!
@@Englishbikerdan wahey
Finally a good looking bike without that annoying plastic beak.
Africa Twin too!
It's spelled surprise/surprising.
Thanks!
Double headlights is what makes a motorcycle beautiful. It's astonishing to me that only a couple motorcycles have accidentally received dual headlights. There are too many horrendously ugly single headlight bikes in 2024.
When pictures from the launch of the Cagiva Elefant (sp?) appeared in mcn I thought the same as when the suzi DR big and years before that the GS800 launched - utterly ridiculous. Maybe the thing for crossing the Sahara to Dakar. But ugly and - why would you? Obviously like 4 wheeled SUVs there is a big market for these. But those, and this parts bin Ducati, worse than anything else including 50cc mopeds in my desirability league
So you don't like it?
