The Tractive X-PERIENCE shock for the Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled is a closed, pressurised damper designed to improve control and consistency across varied road surfaces. It uses a gas-separated architecture to reduce aeration and keep damping stable on longer rides. This model features a triple-adjustable layout to support rider, load and route changes without compromising comfort.

Design & features

  • Closed, pressurised shock design for consistent damping performance
  • Oil/gas separation via an internal piston to help reduce fade from aeration
  • Built to suit the Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled application

Tuning Controls

  • Rebound damping adjustment
  • Compression damping adjustment
  • Additional damping adjustment as part of a triple-adjustable configuration

Who is this for?

  • Riders seeking more controlled damping behaviour for mixed-surface riding
  • Owners who regularly change load (luggage or passenger) and want tuneability
  • Those who prefer a shock design aimed at consistent performance over longer rides

Before You Install

  • Confirm model fitment for your Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled and year range before ordering
  • Plan a baseline setup after installation and record your adjustment positions for reference
  • Inspect linkage and mounting hardware condition during installation

Serviceability/Lifecycle

  • Pressurised, oil/gas-separated construction is intended to maintain damping consistency over time
  • Routine servicing helps keep performance consistent as oil and seals age

Is It Right For You?

  • Choose this option if you want a closed, pressurised shock with broad external adjustability
  • If you prefer minimal tuning, consider whether you will use the available adjustments
