Ducati DesertX Discovery Features
The DesertX Discovery stands out with additional protective equipment, including a front bullbar, an engine guard plate, and a protective radiator grille, making it more robust for extreme terrains. Riders will also benefit from heated hand grips, a taller touring windscreen, and turn-by-turn navigation integrated with the Ducati Link app. A centre stand further improves convenience for luggage access and maintenance. Ducati has also introduced a distinctive Thrilling Black and Ducati Red livery exclusive to this variant.
Mechanically, the DesertX Discovery remains identical to the standard model.

With a seat height of 875 mm, a 21-litre fuel tank, and an impressive 350 mm ground clearance, the motorcycle is built to tackle challenging terrains with ease.
