Just saying it meets the demanding requirements of modern enduro courses shows they developed it seriously.
What's the difference between enduro and motocross?

Borgo Panigale going all-in on off-road has a real element of surprise, which is exactly what makes it fun.
Ducati genuinely cutting into KTM's and Husqvarna's stronghold is an interesting development.
Whether they can match the top players' polish right out of the gate on their first entry is honestly still unknown.
