At Eicma, Ducati debuted the commercial versions of the Desmo450 MX motocross bike, which won the Italian MX1 Championship this year, launched the enduro version, and introduced the new exclusive Desmo250 MX, whose development will continue through the MX2 Championship.

The new racing bike borrows heavily from the 450cc sibling in terms of chassis—specifically the aluminum perimeter frame with engine as a stressed member—but features a completely new engine.

Alongside the race bikes, Ducati also showcased the 2026 Desert models, equipped with an advanced progressive-link rear suspension, lighter at 206 kg dry weight, and powered by the same engine as the 2026 Monster, delivering 110 hp at 9,000 rpm and 92 Nm at 7,000 rpm.
