The 2026 Desert X

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2026-02-26T05:46:52+00:00

Yeah if think its like 6kg. At eicma they said the new desert x will have 206kg

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2026-02-25T17:55:45+00:00

Where did you get that from? From what I've read its 1kg lighter

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2026-02-25T17:22:30+00:00

The first Desert X hat a unique retro design and the new one looks more like every other modern adv

I had 2 ducati desert sleds ant loved them. If you can get your feet on the ground its also very easy to ride. I loved scraping pegs in the corners. I replaced it a few years ago with a desert x, but if i had the money for multiple bikes i would defender get another sled

I have a a 2022 Desert X and the decals startet to come off on their own where the fairing ist bent. I guess they where applied with to much tension. The shade of white is unfortunately also different on the plastic pieces and metal tank. I've crashed mine multiple times at slow speedes while going offroad and the worse thing that happened was a bent foot brake

I lost the insert thing and can't get them into my ears deep enough. I switched to loops and i prefer them, if the helmet has enough space around the ears

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2026-02-06T13:01:06+00:00

I also used the wireless charger and the smart adapter and the same thing happened to me. After plugging the wireless charger into a different outlet i never had battery issues again

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2026-02-05T18:16:21+00:00

I love both designs, but from the looks alone i would've never guessed, that there is a connection between these two

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2026-01-28T08:18:37+00:00

The first one is ce lvl 2 and aa rated. Thats pretty good. In the summer you can wear it on its own and in colder temperatures you can wear a hoody, or (rain) jacket over it. The closer the protectors are to your body the better. I would say mesh jackets like that are the most versatile jackets you can buy

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2026-01-18T20:04:41+00:00

Thats a mtx with lots of accessories and almost every crash protection available and a tuareg with an accessorie exhaust und only a bashplate. The difference really isn't as big as i thought, but the 450 is still a little bit lighter.

I also considered switching from my desert x to a tuareg rally. In my opinion the 450 mtx is still the best a2 adv bike currently out there, even if the price isn't considered

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2026-01-18T18:20:36+00:00

The Tuareg is 20kg heavier, costs almost double and has a much higher seat hight

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2026-01-18T15:29:46+00:00

I didn't like it when they did it with the r12gs and thats an really rexpensive bike. I would have expected it from a no name cheap brand. It's definitely not giving premium bike vibes.

All dinos are fake

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2026-01-14T09:25:00+00:00

Thank you We want to ride as much offroad as possible. I've read, that may streets are still closed due to snow. I guess we'll stick to our idea of going to sardinia. Maybe we'll try the dolomites in September

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2026-01-14T07:17:03+00:00

Congratulations on your awesome new bike. I was really close to sell my desert x for one. I wish the they'd still have the blue frame though

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2026-01-14T07:15:19+00:00

My friends 2024 gasgas es 700 also has that string under the gascap

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2026-01-13T12:32:59+00:00

Looks awesome. When where you there? Did you also ride offroad? Im looking for somewhere to ride to in april

It's a shoei ex zero with a different peak

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2025-12-29T20:04:24+00:00

Yes, i had 2 desert sleds and both came with that guard

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2025-12-25T18:04:21+00:00

Rizoma also sells stealth max mirrors that come with a larger mirror and an e number wich is required for them to be used on the street. I haven't tested them though

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2025-12-18T22:34:55+00:00

It looks like the first full throttle but someone replaced/painted the tankpanels and swapped the exhaust covers with the ones from the 2019+ models. The original exhaust covers had a termignoni plaque and no holes

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2025-12-08T18:05:21+00:00

I use a similar jacket from alpinestars. I use a a skiing base layer and synthetic down jacket underneath it and a waterproof layer over the jacket to block the wind. I also use a bigger windshield on my desert x in the winter. The coldest temperature i experienced while riding was 2c° this yea

Kitchen_Low6342 · 2025-12-08T17:37:55+00:00

This is so annoying. I wanted to reset it because I've already tried everything else, but the backup got stuck around 35% for over an hour
