Ducati had to give us something sick. Its own definition of a custom-dragster, with horses all over the place, Superbike electronics, powerful styling, and ultimately something monstrous: it’s the Diavel.
Look at this machine! Looks like all her muscles are focused on themselves. If the Harley Fat-Boy welcomed the Terminator into its saddle, the Diavel would gladly take an Alien as its rider. With its big liquid twin Evoluzione Testastretta 11 ° born in the Ducati Corse workshops, this demonic machine will wildly smoke its 240 mm rear tire. Normally, this kind of engine is moderated when it leaves its original case (a sports car) to propel a less exclusive motorcycle. There, Ducat ’just calmed him down. The twin spits out 162 horsepower at 9500 rpm, which is the potato of a 1098 5 years ago. The competition, what does she say ?
The V-rod Muscle? Pfff…. The Diavel has not finished accelerating that the American is already a memory in the retro. She’s going to mess with the Yamaha 1700 V-max right away, and don’t hesitate to mess with the Triumph 2300 Rocket III Roadster. Although it turns out to be less powerful than the Yam, the Italian weighs only 210 kg – a quintal less. And weight is a bike’s worst enemy. Not sure that the Japanese woman will keep smiling for long.
The chassis accommodates everything Ducati can do and at best: still a traditional trellis frame in steel tubes fixed to side plates; a 50mm inverted fork on one side, a long single-sided swingarm on the other, and a 1590mm wheelbase in between. To channel the ardor of the Diavel, the whole Ducati Corse lives in the on-board electronic chips: Ducati Traction Control, ABS, 3 selectable mapping modes, Ride-By-Wire throttle handle…. Do not throw any more.
Prepare the Breeze and the fan already, because it already smells of burnt gum and a burnt wallet. Count 17,000 euros to treat yourself to the devil’s breath. There will also be a carbon version widely equipped with this material, charging 3 kilos less, and a nice check for 20,390 euros..
