Aprilia Tuareg 660 Rally 2025

Aprilia Tuareg 660 Rally 2025

The Aprilia Tuareg Rally proves that even an adventure bike with 660 cubic centimetres can be a lot of fun in today's world. It combines the best of both worlds - the power and character of a real rally bike with the comfort of an adventure bike.

Revised engine mapping with poisonous throttle response

Very stable off-road handling

Amazing sound for Euro 5+

Quickshifter and cruise control included

Narrower rims for real enduro tyres

Easy operation of the Advanced Rider Assistance Systems

Stand comes to heel when standing

Ducati DesertX 2023

Ducati DesertX 2023

The first real enduro of the modern era from Ducati has succeeded - and how! A heart-warming design in the look of the glorious 90s Dakar bikes but packed with noble components and state-of-the-art technology. The high-quality and stable chassis concept really comes into its own in both on- and off-road use. The DesertX immediately conveys an unbelievably confident and safe riding feeling. The straddle that Ducati has managed with the suspension elements is also admirable, whether on or off road, it simply feels good.

great chassis with fully adjustable suspension

sophisticated driving modes

powerful engine

powerful brake

well thought-out detail solutions

extensive standard equipment

Smooth running of the engine in the lower rev range

Suspension response slightly behind that of the fork

Very high, non-adjustable seat height

Little space and no handholds for pillion riders.
