Showa suspension with Dark Kashima and TiO coating

The Desmo450 MX Factory adopts lightweight, high-performance Showa suspension, designed to ensure race-level reliability and efficiency. At the front is a 49 mm fork, adjustable in compression and rebound, complete with Dark Kashima coating for performance closer to that of the factory bikes. At the rear, a shock with progressive linkage, adjustable in compression. The fork and shock stanchions are TiO coated, increasing surface hardness by 60% and reducing friction by 10%, while also heightening the resistance to chips and abrasions caused by sand and debris.

Akrapovič full titanium exhaust

The Akrapovič exhaust is full titanium and allows for a weight saving of 3.7 lbs. (1.7 kg), helping to limit the bike’s overall weight to just 229 lbs. (104 kg). In combination with dedicated engine mapping, this gives the engine a broader torque curve and greater top-end performance.

Steering plates in billet Ergal

The Desmo450 MX Factory flaunts extremely high-quality components, including billet Ergal steering plates that offer greater stiffness and ensure a weight reduction of roughly half a pound (200 grams).

Race components

The Desmo450 MX Factory integrates components developed for racing, such as the Holeshot device that guarantees greater stability and increased acceleration. Its equipment is rounded out with a disc protector and engine guard plate, designed to protect the braking system and engine from mud, stones and debris during off-road riding.

Ducati Com-Link Wi-Fi module

The Ducati Com-Link Wi-Fi module allows the rider to use the Ducati X-Link app to customize their Desmo450 MX Factory and monitor it in a fast and intuitive way. The rider can use the app to configure the two riding modes, adjusting throttle response, engine brake, Ducati traction control, and launch control. Ducati X-Link also acquires data such as engine speed, throttle position, atmospheric temperature, and pressure, as well as providing suggestions for the best suspension setup based on a rider’s weight and experience level and the type of terrain.

Strong, lightweight aluminum frame

The Desmo450 MX Factory flaunts a lightweight aluminum frame that comprises just 11 elements, minimizing the number of weld joints. The result is a frame that weighs just 19.75 lbs. (8.96 kg), achieved by combining cast, forged, and extruded components with the utmost Ducati engineering precision.

High-performance Desmo450 single-cylinder engine

The entire bike is designed around its beating heart: a 450 single-cylinder engine with desmodromic timing, which boasts maximum power of 63.5 hp at 9,400 rpm and maximum torque of 39.5 lb-ft @ 7,500 rpm. The rev limiter is set at 11,900 rpm, with such high engine speeds allowing for less gear shifting. This means the rider can get away quicker and increase their chance of a holeshot.

Brembo/Galfer braking system

The Desmo450 MX Factory is equipped with a high-quality braking system, its calipers and master cylinder supplied by historic Ducati partner, Brembo. At the front is a two-piston floating caliper, while the rear comprises a single-piston floating caliper to ensure power and modulability in every situation. Galfer discs, 260 mm at the front and 240 mm at the rear, ensure precise braking and contribute to improving the overall handling.
