Ducati has officially entered the enduro segment.
Today, we’re proud to launch the Desmo450 EDS, a motorcycle engineered from scratch for off-road enduro riding. Conceived, developed, and born for the dirt.
At its core: a dedicated Desmo 450cc engine with smooth power delivery, a 6-speed purpose-built gearbox, Showa suspension with enduro-specific tuning, and advanced electronics, all designed to deliver both performance and intuitive handling in every condition.
6-speed dedicated gearbox: Purpose-built for off-road use. Not adapted, not borrowed, engineered specifically for the demands of real terrain.
Showa long-stroke suspension, enduro-tuned: Front and rear suspension developed specifically for enduro riding, with a progressive-link rear shock to absorb what the trail throws at you.
Advanced electronics with traction control: Handlebar-mounted map switch and advanced traction control give you confidence and control across every surface, without getting in the way.
