Ducati XDiavel

Post by 823JIM »

Took Demo ride on an Xdiavel, What a sweet ride, 153 Hp to rear wheel. This thing is a true hot rod, "fast!!!" :woohoo: and handles great. Would love one of these but this fat old man would probably just get hurt. :laughing:Image

I hear they are wicked bikes. Think I saw a roadtest on YouTube. I am not keen on the styling but I am old and these things were built to impress the younger crowd. I am more the Triumph Bonneville type myself.

Mr. Jensee

Yes, I agree with your assessment of the styling. The forward controls are not my cup of tea, would much rather have foot pegs more under me. But was never the less very impressive on the performance and handling aspects, and probably intended for someone younger than me.

Also rode the all electric Victory Empluse, also not completely for me but was an interesting ride.
