and ABS Cornering . ABS Cornering , in particular , can be set on three levels to be able to adapt to rider skill and whatever situation . In the Riding Modes dedicated to off-road ( Enduro and Rally ), ABS Cornering can also be completely deactivated via the switch cube with a specific button . The vertically-mounted TFT is set up to integrate the Ducati Multimedia System from the off , which allows the rider to connect their phone to the bike via Bluetooth and unlock further features . This includes functions such as music and incoming / outgoing calls or Turnby-Turn navigation ( optional ), which displays directions directly on the dashboard . The rider is offered the opportunity to choose between two as-standard Info Modes : Standard and Rally . The Standard option provides for all the road information : tachometer and speedometer are clearly visible , as well as the engaged gear , fuel level and other useful journey information . The trip master function is part of the Rally Info Mode . This simulates the operation of the trip master used in rally motorcycles and allows to manually adjust the odometer indication , using the buttons on the left switch cube . DesertX will be backed by a four-year , unlimited-kilometre warranty in the EU ( NZ and Australia get a 24 month warranty ) and is expected to arrive in NZ in the third quarter of 2022 .
EVERYONE LIKES FREE STUFF

Simply buy an EVO-60 pack before 31 / 1 / 22 and they ’ ll throw in a brand spanking new an EVO Rack for FREE . The EVO-60 mounts to the EVO Rack without the upright bars of the previous generation of Ventura gear . Instead , a clever pocket at the base secures the bag to the rack and keeps your bike looking slick when you ’ re not needing to lug around everything up to and including the kitchen sink . The deal is as simple as it gets , too . Simply pop into your local stockist and buy an EVO- 60 pack - which as the name suggests offers a 60 spacious litres of capacity at just $ 269 - and the dealer will order the EVO Rack for your bike and give you a call when it arrives in store . Too easy really . There ’ s no fine print , just a simple and honest deal from the Kiwi team behind VENTURA who ’ ve been proudly manufacturing motorcycle luggage right here in NZ since 1980 .
