Ducati putting out a motocrosser had me standing up out of my chair the moment I heard. A 250cc MX bearing the desmo name, footage hinting at 15,000rpm — just the anticipation of the spec sends my pulse up. How will they translate road-honed technology into the dirt? I keep rewinding the world-premiere footage over and over.

Sorry for the basic question, is this something you can ride on a regular track, or is it pro-only...?

Watched the world premiere and got chills. A red motocrosser is pure romance distilled.

Want to know the curb weight and suspension travel ASAP. Curious how the desmo valve setup holds up for racing durability.

Honestly just want one in the garage. Figure out where to actually ride it later.

It's probably priced nearly double Japanese brands anyway. Nice dream, but out of reach.

In the end nobody believes it until it delivers results on track. Anyone can hype up a launch event.
