DescriptionThe whole story▼

The Desert Sled is the off-road-leaning Scrambler, with longer suspension travel and spoked wheels. The Gilles AXB-K1 chain adjuster for the Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled of 2021 to 2026 moves the axle in both directions with its special screw and brings rollers for a paddock stand.

Key Features

  • Integrated 19 mm POM rollers for a paddock stand
  • Stays in the swingarm while the rear wheel is fitted
  • Supports the axle against tensile and compressive forces
  • Works with the original axle nut
  • Precise adjustment of the chain tension
  • No registration required, according to Gilles

Types 5K and 6K

Gilles lists the Desert Sled 800 under types 5K and 6K from 2021.

Dust and mud

Dirt wears a chain faster, so a Desert Sled that sees gravel roads needs its slack checked more often. The adjuster makes each correction quick and repeatable.

Road Approval

According to Gilles, no approval is required for this chain adjuster on the Ducati SCRAMBLER DESERT SLED. Nothing has to be inspected or entered in the papers; fit it as described in the instructions and check the chain slack before riding.

Scope of Delivery

One Gilles AXB chain adjuster AXB-K1 for this motorcycle's rear axle. The original axle nut is reused.

Fitting

Chain slack comes from the owner's manual, wheel alignment from the scales: set both to the same value, torque the axle nut, spin the wheel and check once more. If you are unsure, let a workshop do the first adjustment.
