Roadster - Comparison test Diavel, B-King and Vmax: watts and show off! - Diavel, B-King, Vmax: big, heavy!

As exuberant as the Yamaha Vmax but claiming the behavior of a roadster, the Ducati Diavel shakes up the muscle bike category … Site pits it against the Yamaha monster and the virile Suzuki B-King: comparative test 100% testosterone !

Diavel, B-King, Vmax: big, heavy !

Aspects such as the duo’s ability, protection, comfort and autonomy were not in the specifications of these three asphalt divas, but the most able to take a young lady seduced to a cafe terrace ( or at a gas station, compared to the gluttony of the V4!) will certainly be the Vmax.

On the other hand, in terms of saddle and suspension comfort, it is clearly the Suzuki that tires its rider the least. Finally, the Diavel and the B-King offer roughly the same range of approximately 180 km before reserve.

On the Vmax, the indicator light comes on in the best case at 130-140 km but if one is – really – not reasonable, one can switch to reserve at 80-90 km … Yes, the Yam consumes 9 l / 100 km on average (soft!) For a 15-liter tank. On the protection side, no jealousy: we take full advantage of the three !

For some, these three monsters represent a dream that they will fulfill – or not! – one day while for others, it is nonsense on two wheels at indecent prices … But what is certain is that they are above all passion motorcycles with crazy engines and looks !

From single to double !

Whatever arguments we give for one or the other, the emotional will necessarily occupy a preponderant part in the choice of these motorcycles. But when it comes time to come down to earth to sign the check, the B-King puts everyone in agreement !

At 12,990 euros with ABS and its Yoshimura exhausts, it is difficult to attack. For 4,000 euros more, or 16,990 euros exactly, the Diavel is not shockingly expensive given its high level of technology. On the other hand, the price of the Vmax becomes frankly indecent since it now sells its charms for 21,990 euros…
