Ducati DesertX Rally, Monster 30° Anniversario launched in Malaysia
DUCATI Malaysia has announced the arrival of two exciting models to the local market, namely the DesertX Rally and the limited-edition Monster 30° Anniversario.
DesertX Rally
As the range-topping variant in its range, the DesertX Rally boasts an array of features designed to enhance off-road riding experience.
Key specifications include:

- Durable high-strength adhesive graphics inspired by Antoine Meo’s winning livery in the Erzbergrodeo race.
