Muller Motorsport Scotts Steering Damper Adapter installation
In this video I took the liberty of filming the installation of the kit I bought from Muller Motorsports, it consists of an adapter to replace the original steering damper with the Scotts, more specific for all terrain.
I loved the quality of the finish, everything was very well done.
I'll let you know soon...I'll be going to Morocco in a week to put the material to the test.
This operation took about 20 minutes.

Volcano Seat Cover for Ducati Desert X Installation
มุมมอง 4.6Kปีที่แล้ว
In this video I will install a Seat cover in my Ducati Desert x from Volcano Seat Covers... first time I do it 😅....... Volcano Industry is a Italian Brand ...the hand made seat covers are really well made from top material with a nice finish touch ... after I run with the bike I felt a higher comfort sensation ... I am really satisfied www.volcanoindustry.com @ducati_ducatidesertx

This was a really insightful video. Thank you very much. I have been considering getting a DesertX but after watching this video, there is No Way I am going to get a bike that takes 20 minutes or more to change the air filter. This is supposed to be a bike that goes offroad, albeit occasionaly. You made up my mind, I'm getting the KTM. Thanks.
@@QuackLoud hello. For me it’s not a big issue … the air filter is on the front of the bike … don’t get any dust unless you road a lot behind other bikes. I have friends with ktm 790/890 and they need to change air filter after a 3 day ride. With Desert X I do a lot of off road and I change air filter each 5 000kms and not so many dust.
Agree that basic air filter service on the DDX is a pain, but the air filter positioning is actually pretty good. There's a good video on MADTV when a rider who crossed Australia shows his used filter. Would never buy a KTM again... great bikes but too many issues and quality control is really lacking.
@@ssmith954 yes. …and I know what you mean …
Where can i buy this filter ? Thank you
@@GuidoCeola South Africa 🇿🇦 😅
you have to take the engine out to open the fuel cap
How come and why did engineers put an air filter in a complicated location for a bike that is meant for offroad. Airfilter should be cleaned regularly. That is painful and a blocking point to buy this bike for offroad usage.
It does not matter. This is still a bad design and nobody who goes far without dealer support will accept this. You have to be able to do air filter and oil change on your own and without an impossible process.
How do you like it so far?? 🇺🇸 🍻
Like it a lot. More and more. 18 000 kms without any issue … around 12 000kms in offroad
I thought the Africa Twin had the worst design for filter maintenance! This makes the AT look like a breeze! 😮
How often do you clean the air filter? When doing enduro I used to do it every month. Considering the DX is a trail bike, 50% off road let's say ... What do you think about? I'm currently only 3000 kms but I started feeling the bike less nervous than before getting high revs so I'm planning to check the air filter. Thanks for the video!
Hello. It depends on whether you usually go behind other bikes in the middle of the dust...if yes, it is better to check the air filter. If you walk alone there is not much problem because the air filter is well placed. In this area it only receives the air that comes from the front. It does not suck the air that comes from the rear wheel like the Ktm 790 / 890. Cheers
Followed this today. Took me about 1.5 hours in total. Will obviously be easier the next time. Not a good design, but it’s worth it for how good of a bike the DX is.
Keep up the the good work
Thank you for this video. But,where is the heat insulation blanket under tank?
You welcome. I did not put. After I dismounted again and put some different insulation under the fuel tank
I was thinking about getting a desert x, until I found out about this stupid ass system, don’t take into a desert it will be to dusty 😂.
Excelente video, muito útil. Já agora, se me permites a pergunta, tens decat e ponteira, fizeste remap? como funcionou com a garantia? Abraço.
Boas. Sim tenho decat e ponteira mas homologada pela Ducati. Vem com mapas específicos para a mota. Fica brutal. E continua c garantia
@@MrSergioRosario Obrigado pela resposta. Já agora, foi muito caro o escape todo e o mapa na origem? e as temperaturas? abraço 👍
sim. nao foi nada barato...o mapa faz parte... as temperaturas da mota baixam drasticamente...fica outa mota ..muito melhor , mais leve :) e com uma resposta bastante melhor@@pedrosimoes6041
The 2 vax tubes are a pain, used a pair of pliers in the end as the new pipes are stuck tight, Putting a bit of grease on them now to make it much easyier to remove next time. Thanks for the VIdeo !
thank you
A pain is putting it lightly. The 20 min job turned in to a full days job and lost skin on knuckles. Everything is simple until getting to removing the breathers, as you say, seized on solid with not enough space to get a proper grip to pull off. On the advice of one of the Facebook owners groups I went and purchased some extended length pliers, came off much easier. Putting them back on was then just as hard. I found taking the screen off and fairing top bolts and tie side panels to crash bars so out the way, putting the extended pliers through the front of the bike I could grip the hose, lay the pliers on the frame and push down on the pliers using the frame as a leaver which pushed the breathers on to the connections. I also sprayed silicon lube in to the breathers first. Complete nightmare. A few people have cut the breathers and fitted quick connects lower down so disconnect there and lift the tank off with breathers still attached.
@@SomeRandoInternetPoster 😳😳😳
Naaaa, The Tuareg takes 5 min.. and it much higher intake location. Just another expensive half cocked turd from Ducati..
Ok. Did you try this bike ?! You can not compare with Tuareg
@@MrSergioRosario I would NEVER by a Ducati. Its the Italian version of a Harley Davidson. Over priced unreliable turds. I tried it, way to heavy... Tuareg is lighter and with a couple upgrades a much better bike..
Hi Sergio, can I use part of your clip (I will link to it) in one of my video's?
hello. yes you can ...if you also want ....my instagram is @ducati_ducatidesertx
will link them both! @@MrSergioRosario
@@droommotor sorry. Is @ducati_ducatidesertx I already put the right name above 👆
wondering if replacing the regular air filter with "DU-9321 K&N REPLACEMENT AIR FILTER" would be a good idea? would it help reduce the number of change cycles for this cumbersome process?
hello. depend...if you do road...kn is good ...but not for off road...if you do road...the interval between air filter changes is big
It’s not the best but a lot of people complain like this breaks the bike. 99.999% of you don’t ride in conditions where changing the air filter is common.
Yes. That’s it … lot of people never change the air filter but like to to have something to say 🫣
Well done Sergio! Thank you for making this video. How has the Unifilter performed since the installation and realistically how often are you either checking the filter or changing it based on your typical riding?
Hello !! You welcome. The unifilter is amazing. One trip top Marrocco (around 2 000kms Off Road) and the third layer of the filter was completely clean. The bike continuing performing well without more consumption!!
Sérgio como tiramos o banco do pendura?
Tiras o banco do condutor e depois desapertas 2 parafusos que ficam por cima entre os dois bancos. Super facil
Le changement du filtre à air est un frein pour moi pour l'achat de cette moto. Vraiment dommage ☹ mais pour du offroad il faut avoir un acces plus rapide pour le nettoyage. Dommage car la moto me plaisait beaucoup. Je vais opter pour une 700 ténéré.
Sure… that’s why you are opting for a bike not even in the same class lol.
Quand on fait du offroad on ne regarde pas que la classe lol....@@aerowenn433
Thank you very much for your awesome videos Sergio. I am very interested in the DesertX myself as well and your videos are perfect! Where can I learn more about your trip to Morocco?
Hello. Thank you. Soon I will upload a video
@@MrSergioRosario I am looking forward to it!
Good video mate! FYI the monkeys at my local dealer (in Australia) refuse to honour the global fuel-hose recall because they say "it takes 4.5hrs to remove/replace the tank - and Ducati will only reimburse them 30mins for that recall job". Total morons...
Every good offroad motorcycle has easy access to battery and air filter. The location of the air filter on the Desert X doesn't mean that.
Yes. The access it’s not easy … but the bike is really good off road … and on road
PS: this is probably one of the reasons why Ducati asks owners in the manual even for simple maintanance tasks to go to a workshop.
20min is a serious improvement over the 2h I saw in another video. However it still proves how bad this is designed compared other bikes. It literally takes me 1/10 of the time to get out the air filter of my Norden 901 (same for the 790 and 890) and another two, maybe three minutes to get the new one in and all back in running condition. And I don't need to mess around with fuel. Take off the seats, take out two bolts, pull out the support frame and there you got got the air filter of the 901. Could not be easier. By the time the procedure is finished on the DesertX (a bike that literally has dust in the name! ;-) ) I 'll be 20km away! But congratulations for making this really informative video!
I heard it was bad, a friend chose to not buy one because of the air filter. Now Ive seen it Im of the opinion its simply inexcusable of Ducati to produce this. My KTM is maybe 30 seconds and the primary filters are in my hands, lift the seat and its right there. Just madness to disturb all these fittings, hoses and plugs on a regular occurrence, just asking for trouble.
thx
Ridiculous
20 min? Video length, yes, but work time? More like 2hrs, no? (BTW, you undid the"fairings" not "paniers"...)
20 min form start to finish the job
Lol, what a poor design, you can change a T7 airfilter in 1 minute.
Did you put the heat blanket back or did I miss that part of the video?
Nope and either did I. Took it all back apart left the right side pet cock open got gas everywhere.
As you were reinstalling the steering damper you said “don’t forget to use glue “. Did you mean lock-tite?
hello. yes. thats it
I hope this message finds you before tomorrow. I have a day off and need to install my alarm system to my desert x. Told its plug and play and goes beneath the fuel tank. Would you agree. Have you seen a connector laying there dormant? Thanks mate, James
Hello James. Thank you for your message but I did not check that. Sorry I can’t help you
Thanks for sharing, this is the bridge too far to cross for an otherwise great looking bike. The sad thing is that it wouldn't be difficult to engineer a proper solution for fixing it.
Ducati need to design a hinge system at the rear mounting point of the tank , using quick release connectors on the fuel lines and modify the wiring to allow the tank to lift up. That would reduce the time to change the filter to 10 min or less Maybe we will see a mod. on an updated Desert x in the future ?
Yap
🎵👂😢
What a nightmare...why wpuld amyone riding offroad ever buy this bike re poor air box design.
Coś strasznego!
Nice Do you think that you need to remove completely the damper now to change the oil filter? I think so but I have not try yet I respond my self: you just need to remove 2 bolts not the damper
Thank you
Can you tell me the model number on the Scotts Damper? Is it 4200-00?
My old Multistrada has a tank below the seat and is a hell to remove. I hate it. The new Desert X should have solved this because the tank design is different and allows for other options to access an air filter. But I am puzzled to see that changing my Royal Interceptor's air filter takes about 5 minutes when a premium ADV big bike takes a minimum of 20 minutes (when well organized). Come on Ducati...
Yap. That’s it 😅
What a mission to change an air filter
it should take 3 minutes on adv bike...
He forgot to put that insulation back around the air filter.
Disconnecting the steering damper to change the air filter. Italian engineering for ya😂
Should have removed the ECU to get the whole cover off and grease the perimeter for a better seal since switching to the Uniflow. Otherwise, great tips.
Doesn’t seem too bad I wonder what the dealer charges for this job 😂
Maybe one hour
Sergio did you oil the unifilter or you use it dry?
He come already with oil … but we need to put oil after clean Always
@@MrSergioRosario thank you, also did you find any difference in performance and fuel consumption?
@@miscel761 all the same. I change for do offroad. Foam filters are much better for offroad use
What a completely shit design from Ducati! Rediculous!!
how much centimeter is the front light i want cover with this prodection mask
