2016 Derbi DRD X-Treme Limited


Derbi has launched a campaign of teasing around his DRD Limited Edition 2016, the new limited edition of its popular 50 Supermotard typical speeds. A novel procedure that reflects its new communication policy. To attract the interest of young motorcyclists, Catalan manufacturer relies increasingly on advices, not hesitating to question through its Facebook page.

The temperature having been taken, fairings and seat the new Derbi DRD 50 Ltd feature graphics "Xtreme" orange outlined in black and white. If the result is not at the height of a Deco MX kit vinyl, he deserves to stand out from the rest of the range, giving in classic shades of red, blue or black but also the Limited Edition 2015.


An adjective that can unfortunately be attributed to the special series as a whole. Because beyond its chrome exhaust line and his hand protectors cross which remain unchanged for 4 years, nothing distinguishes this special edition of the standard model. Gone is the time when the letters "L. E." were synonymous with aluminum swingarm, double disc Galfer Wave Showa inverted fork or large diameter.


Among enthusiasts always discontent rises year after year. In most observers, this trend only reflects the slow decline of Derbi, whose sales concessions continue to melt like snow in the sun. It remains at € 2,749 (introductory price until 30 June 2016), the special series DRD X-Treme Limited 2016 worth facing the DRD X-Treme 50 SM, which has sold € 100 less.
