I am in love

[AutoEuphoria]

:drool: Always loved Ducati's naked sports bikes...this one takes the cake!

 

[controlled insanity]

ill take 2 please

 

[RSWANNABE]

Wow!

pure awesomeness.

 

[cjmatt]

yeah, the diavel is a bad ass machine. I keep trying to convince myself that I dont need one, but I dont know how long Ill be able to hold out. the performance numbers on it are wicked. Id just get the regular one though, the carbon is only like 5 lbs lighter but costs an extra $3k

 

[ThreeHonks]

wow that does look pretty darn good. never liked the naked bikes, I think this is the first one i've actually liked :drool:

 

[pferd]

Not being a bike guy - What do people mean when you say "naked" bikes?

 

[abazaba410]

No/limited fairings that cover the motor and so on.

EDIT - That is a beautiul bike too, I'm still waiting for the day I can afford an FZ6. I've wanted one of them since they came out.

 

[TwilightBlu92]

That thing is nice.

I know I'm gonna take some heat for this, but it kind of reminds me of a V-rod.

I was at the Harley dealer last week dropping a bike off. When I saw this i said the exact same thing. Compare the two and they do look similar.

EDIT: Close, deff not the same but they could be brothers lol

I can't see shit.

Yeah, and a Camaro kinda reminds me of a Mustang. JK.

I love the Diavel! I also like the V-Rod. I'd rock either one! The Diavel looks like another muscle cruiser but it's the best performer of the bunch. It's the quickest Ducati they make now. 10.3 quarter I read. And it's lighter than it looks.

 

[Golden]

Bitch is SWEET! And yeah, the front end looks very much like a v-rod.

From what I have read, that's not an accident. One of the bike mags I grabbed before jumping on a plane did a pretty long review of it. Like cjmatt said, +$3k for 5# less weight is a steep price. I can crap 5# (and keep it off) for less $$.

Seeing as how I am too cheap to shop for cars over $10k, I'll have to wait a bit.
