First Ride! Will It Be My Last? The Ducati Diavel V4

Channel Partners:

My first time riding a Ducati! I attended the Ducati Media day and got to ride two Ducati models (Scrambler video review coming next!). In this video I ride the Insane Diavel V4; a true muscle bike; an absolute monster! If you'd like to see The Ol' Man ride and review this motorcycle, please let us know in the comments section, and we can arrange to get the bike for a few days really soon, to give it a much more detailed review.

I discuss what it's like the ride, the handling, stopping power, acceleration, power, and more...

I bought one a few weeks ago, black as well. I ride it all day long without any problems on the buttocks or elsewhere (6ft 3, 5 inch). I do recommend the comfort seat: it is softer, and makes for a beter seating position. And yes, I would love a more extended evaluation of this Italian beauty by the both of you later on. I'll definitely tune in!

I really like the looks of this bike, I'm not sure why so many don't.

I do enjoy hearing modern classic riders give their take on these extreme bikes. I can’t relate to guys who only ride these super fast bikes but I am curious about them so thank you for this!

I bought one about 4 months ago and love it. Even toured on it in New Zealand. I have 3 other bikes of differing categories but always gravitate to the Ducati.

One of the most beautifulest bikes ever made

I love it! I had a gen2 and I loved that. Sorry I ever got rid of it. I'd love to get the V4.

Those side scoops are right out of the yamaha v max sec sheet!

Good review, and will like to see more. It’s an amazing bike, very fast and fun. It surprises in the twisties, and you always feel in control of the bike. From a power cruiser perspective, it has no rival. I am a happy owner of s V2 Diavel

By the way, touring mode is not reduced power, it gives you the full 168 horses only with a more mellow, gradual uptake.

Your channel will coninue to expand with your open mindness to appreciate bikes you dont normally prefer.

Best purchase I ever made.... amazing to ride, tips in better than my CBR600FS.

I’ve had the Xdiavel since 2017. Comfort seat, heated grips, screen and luggage rack for touring. 156 BHP & 135nm ( it’s a twin so the torque is all down low with its max torque at 5000 rpm). It’s a great touring bike and an easy everyday ride. It never disappoints. With a bit of customising the V4 diavel could equally be a very versatile machine.

I love the look of this bike. It feeds my inner speed freak.

I bought a red one a year ago and have done over 8, 500 miles on her with no issues either mechanically or physically for me! I’m 6’1” and have loved it. Toured northern France last year and have just come back from touring Belgium. Have put a clear clutch cover on her, as all Ducati’s should have!

[williamsongarrett]

LOVE the Diavel, amazing bike! I personally would go for the previous gen or 1st gen with the L Twin but I love how they've retained the grunt while also going V4. XDiavel might be my favorite but I loved riding the first gen. Such a compentant machine and so much fun in the twistys while also a comfortable ride while cruising

[michaelsisk]

This is a wonderful bike and one that I considered purchasing. The problem is the initial cost, insurance and maintenance. I used to own a Ducati Monster 696 and I loved the bike but the ownership cost was cost prohibitive. If money was no object and I had a local dealership I would definitely own one. I will stay with my 2023 Harley Davidson Street Bob.

Kudos to Ducati for bringing the Diavel V4 to market. Clearly, it's aimed at fairly limited market - you have to be somewhat of an extrovert nutcase to want this bike. Plus, it's almost US$27, 000 in the USA. But I'm really happy to see it out there for those lucky folks.

[sinnamortai]

The Diavel v4 is such a good looking bike.

[Flyingscotsman]

Had the earlier twin version....absolute hooligan!❤
Great bikes for solo spirited riding!.
