According to Ducati, EDS stands for ‘Enduro Street Legal,’ and is the acronym affixed to the end of the new Desmo450, an off-road machine featuring Desmodromic valve timing, as many as 54 horsepowers and, most importantly, a license plate.
This is the first enduro motorcycle from the Borgo Panigale-based manufacturer that will be street-legal straight from the factory. When fitted with the Ducati Performance Racing Kit (available at authorized Ducati dealers), the Desmo450 EDS is said to produce 54 hp and features a traction control system “that is completely new to the world of Enduro.”
