Not long ago, Ducati pulled the covers off its Ducati Desmo450 MX motocross race bike. This bike made waves not only in the racing world, but the entire motorcycle industry, as it wasn’t just Ducati’s return to the single-cylinder space, it was also the brand’s first venture into the world of motocross.
So big was this development that Ducati established Ducati Corse Off-Road, a division of its racing department dedicated solely to its off-road exploits. With that, it was clear that Ducati was in full-force in the MX game, and on March 17, 2024, it made its debut at the Motocross Pro-Prestige MX1 Italian Championship.
