Ducati DesertX does the Un-Finkeable
Alice Springs to Finke on the notorious Finke Track and back again in one day, without refuelling, aboard a Ducati DesertX fitted with just a few genuine accessories including auxiliary rear fuel tank, one-piece rally seat, Termignoni full exhaust, crash protection, and Pirelli rally tyres.
The Mission: Un-Finkeable.
Ducati Adventure Specialist, Nick Selleck takes us on a bucket list, 460km journey along the track well known for hosting the fastest desert race in the world, and one of the most demanding on both rider and machine, the Finke Desert Race.
With the 2023 Finke Desert Race taking place just one week prior to the Un-Finkeable, Nick and the DesertX tackle the track after some 600 competitors and 10,000 spectators have departed, leaving behind a rough, whooped-out track set to test to test Ducati's offroad adventure machine.

“Except for the helicopter film crew, the ground film crew, the drone operator, the chase truck and my personal physician, I’m going to be all alone” 😂 Epic video though. Well done. What a machine.

Hahaha my thought exactly - so funny, man! “Completely” alone : )

@mortaygo1 10 месяцев назад

Hard to believe that the suspension is stock. Well done. Desert X is a stand out option...

@evgeniiiatsenko412 24 дня назад

Thanks for this amazing Video! Really encourage to start riding DesertX!

Huge respect Nick. HUGE!! And why did it take so many years for you to get a camera crew to film you showing us mere mortals how good you really are on a bike? Or did you hide it from us on purpose?

@ritchieok29 10 месяцев назад

Having test ridden one on road for a couple of hundred kms, I love it. As an adventure tourer, if I was good enough to do serious dirt, this would be the bike to do it on. It was probably as comfortable as my stock Multistrada.

Great job Nikko. you looked absolutely stuffed - but there and back in a day is an increadible achievement!

@Jay-P 9 месяцев назад

What a mammoth effort. Can't believe a Ducati achieved this, regardless of the skill & preparation of the rider. Utmost respect for your dedication & riding skills. I learned so much from you & always grateful

@pursuitmediahouse1143 10 месяцев назад

Very well done Nick, Alana and Jordi, what an incredible adventure. Well ridden, well captured and very well organised. Makes me want to get back out there…. Loved it👍👍

@jamescampbell4334 10 месяцев назад

Awesome achievement mate! 👍 I have my 2023 DesertX fitted out the same way, but without the rear tank and Rally seat. It's been rock solid reliable for 4.2k miles in 4 months. This has been with summer temps in Texas exceeding 100 deg F. 🥵 My max time on the bike has been over six hours with a 20 minute break. Over half that ride was spent on the pegs. The DesertX is bonkers good when it comes to covering long miles on less then ideal surfaces. If the DesertX was around when I stopped riding back in the 90s, I wouldn't have stopped riding. Mine regularly gets run 15 MILES after the '0' pops up on the TFT. Haven't heard it miss once.

So ‘the racer in you wants more’ I’d say that’s a hint there are more awesome videos coming can’t wait! Well done to all involved Nick, the team, Ducati and the camera crew, just Fantastic!

All that fit into 20mins, spaghetti 🍝 western and tribal beats, what more could you ask for, maybe a 1hr less paced feature would be in order for us vlogger addicts, great moovie mate, well done..

@freidrichnietzsche6643 10 месяцев назад

excellent film Ducati! Just wish that air filter was a touch easier to access ;) This make me thing of a prior idea round the fact that why we don' t have a "big ADV" category for these long races. We all know the big bikes (1+ liter) could use a little race DNA to lighten things up for us weekend warriors that spend $$$ because we love ADV bikes. magnificent!

@TallyHoTech 10 месяцев назад

Congrats to Nick and the crew. @Ducati you made an awesome off road bike. Bravo 👏 Now I want to see a Multistrada do it 2 up ;)

@mattwhyte7590 9 месяцев назад

@holmes1956O 9 месяцев назад

Step up and design them yourself. Then market them for everyone else. Beginning of a new business

@m1chi13l 9 месяцев назад

Would have preferred this with no dialogue Alternatively, dialogue focussed on the track itself and what you're doing to keep it upright

@mlo5083 9 месяцев назад

Beautiful video production. Lovely country. Ducati commercial. I understand....... but I maintain that Itchy Boots would have made it in 30 minutes after you. On her Honda CRF 350 with full gear. Eagerly looking around for a place to sleep and something to eat with a big dusty smile. Like it was nothing.

@kiwilife3789 6 месяцев назад

Really not that hard, Id hazard a guess and say any adv would easily do that run. Nice advertisement though.
