Matt Spears, who converted a Ducati Panigale into a snow bike, put it through a true endurance test after riding it across sand dunes.

In the video, Spears demonstrates how his Ducati Panigale 2024 works, which was converted into a snow bike earlier this year. But beyond the snow, he decided to test it on sand dunes.
It’s worth noting that Spears and his team are professionals, and the modifications made to their motorcycles are done safely and carefully. Needless to say, viewers should not attempt to recreate the video at home.
Spears brought along several spare drive belts, tools, and other contingency items in case something went wrong. Even so, he seemed willing to take some risks — both for the content and for the thrill of the whole adventure.
In the end, the epic test was a success. However, it required a few adjustments. For instance, early on, Matt realized he wasn’t going fast enough to cross the dunes.
With his video, Matt left viewers an important message: with a bit of creativity and a lot of courage, even a Ducati Panigale V4 designed for the streets can cross sand dunes.
