With pure competition pedigree, a full titanium Akrapovič exhaust, and an elite electronics package, the 2027 Ducati Desmo450 MX Factory is engineered to dominate the premier 450 motocross class straight out of the crate.
Lings Powersports is proud to present the 2027 Ducati Desmo450 MX Factory, a premium, race-ready motocross weapon built for top-tier performance. Equipped with genuine Factory racing components, including billet Ergal steering plates, a holeshot device, and a protective skidplate, this machine delivers unmatched precision, explosive power, and podium-winning control.
At the heart of the Desmo450 MX Factory is a competition-tuned 449.6 cc single-cylinder engine featuring Ducati's signature Desmodromic valve train, pushing out 63.5 hp with a rev limit of 11,900 rpm. Paired with a full titanium Akrapovič exhaust system and dedicated engine mapping, it delivers an even fuller torque curve and explosive top-end pull while saving 1.7 kg in weight compared to the standard model.
The aluminium perimeter frame is meticulously engineered for benchmark torsional rigidity. Paired with upgraded factory-grade Showa 49 mm front forks featuring Dark Kashima and TiO coatings—offering 60% harder stanchions with 10% less friction—and a fully adjustable Showa rear monoshock, the chassis delivers unflinching composure and exceptional bump absorption across the most punishing tracks.
Every component of the Desmo450 MX Factory is chosen for top-step competition. Premium Brembo braking systems paired with Galfer wave discs deliver benchmark stopping performance; Takasago Excel rims fitted with Pirelli Scorpion MX32 tyres ensure maximum traction; and an advanced Corse-derived electronics suite comes standard—including the Ducati Com-Link Wi-Fi module for predictive maintenance and on-the-fly tuning via the X-Link app.
Weighing in at just 104 kg (wet, no fuel) thanks to premium lightweight components, the 2027 Desmo450 MX Factory brings genuine MXGP factory engineering straight to riders. Backed by Lings Powersports’ factory-trained technicians, customers receive comprehensive setup advice, genuine Ducati Performance parts, and tailored finance packages.
Fully equipped with the spec needed to win—from a Desmo powertrain and Akrapovič titanium exhaust to cutting-edge rider electronics—the 2027 Desmo450 MX Factory arrives ready to take command of the 450 class.
