  • Is the Ducati Desert X too tall, too heavy, too big, too intimidating? Can you commute in the city on it, daily, in traffic? Let's try and find some answers on my office commute.

    Styling wise, this should have been the direction the himalayn 452 could have taken. The Desert X is a beautiful machine. Thank you for this.

    I rode a friends desertx and the way you can grip the tank with your legs is just sooo nice. The termignoni makes this beast growl, add a rally seat and you can conquer any terrain with it.

    but Abhinav, the main question is will u buy it ? even if we have the Himalayan 450, xpulse(s, modded too), and all the kawa dirt bikes we have in india, I get that this a tourer on a dirt bike power chasis..but thoughts ? is it practical with the Indian market, the price it comes with etc
    it is beautiful, but can u actually throw it down a small cliff, without worrying, like how we do it on the xpulse, will we have an Indian pol tarres in the aravalis on this one? :D

      Let me record a footage of how to ride in traffic. I cover a distance of 17kms in 45-50 mins and the route goes right through the heart of the city. Maybe you're not a skilled rider. And nobody is forcing you to stay in Bengaluru. You came here to earn your bread. While I agree that roads are shit, the city grew at a pace greater than any other city I can think of.

    why are RE taking time to release it

      Because RE bikes are made here and these are imported. So the rules are different. RE will need certification to sell wheels it imports.

It is about just getting out there with whatever one has. I'm just headed to my village so won't be able to do the places you've mentioned as I just have three days to get back.

    why do you have road markings? you do not use it. interrow traffic. move in three rows where two are put. you are crazy! Ducati Desert X fits perfectly in this flow. Because it’s off road.
