The most SHOCKING bike of 2023? Ducati Diavel V4 UK review

Join me onboard the 2023 Ducati Diavel V4 on some beautiful British B-roads as I discover… it's actually a supernaked. Not a cruiser. Reset your expectations, delete those prejudices and find out why I genuinely think this might be 2023's biggest shock. I'll take you for a walkaround and show you the new bits, but mostly it's about the riding… the giggle and the occasional cow noise.

Love your unbridled enthusiasm and exuberance. This was an absolute pleasure to watch.

[albertlira]

The sound of a man in love. We've seen you on track days and you weren't this ecstatic. A joy to watch and what a gorgeous bike.

Wow Tim did you not sleep last night? You got this vid out quick! Brilliant video buddy, really enjoyed that 💪🙌

Another great review, Tim. Please don't be tempted to change your style, I love the enthusiasm combined with an actual decent review of what it "feels" like to ride - most bike reviews are boring and lacking in comparison! Keep up the good work :) I don't think you could have it as an only bike though, nor many afford it (especially if it's not an only bike).

I have a Gen 1 1200 Diavel. Mine is going for a service and new tyres in 2 weeks. Booked a test ride on the V4 Diavel. Cant wait.

LOVE IT. I think a comparison between this and the Streetfighter V4S is due. They're about the same price, both absolute weapons.
Ace video as always, you deserve way more subs than you have! 👍🔥🔥🔥

Nice one Tim ..I swore I’d never get another duke but this is nibbling round my reservations about diving back in ..

Tim, great passionate report, entertaining and informative. good to hear you are 6.3 (like me) and comfy on this bike. i'm saving patiently: next year i hope to buy this dream bike. what about you?

[TheMissendenFlyer]

I guess you liked it then! Nice one Tim....can't wait to have a go on one myself!!

“Ballet dancer with brass knuckles”…….most descriptive sentence I’ve ever heard for this bike 😆😆😆👍!

[thmason]

Really enjoyable review! So natural to listen to

one of my new favorite u-tuber reviewers, nice work Tim

[burner]

Great review! Sounds like you found your next ride...you know you want it 😎

[omeraktash]

nice and funny video, I am sharing the enthusiasm :D and man such a nice neighborhood to ride!

[garycampbell]

Stop sitting on the fence Tim. Do you like it or not? 🤷‍♂️

[athleticage]

I just love this review! Must. Have. One !

[jamesdonoghue]

Good review, thanks. I especially enjoyed your confused noises.

[PecheurAnglais]

You said several times, how expensive it is. But, it is a premium bike and costs less than a V4 Panegale, most models of V4 Multistrada's and full spec BMW's. Also, much, much cheaper than the Skoda Karok, replacement for the Yeti. I know which I would prefer and you have only convinced me even more 😁
Great video, full of enthusiasm and useful information. Thanks!

This machine is 1000% everything I have ever Needed in a cruiser, er monster er... Aesthetically the V4 is bellísimo, and the performance is unlike any other cruiser, dare I use that as a comparison? to any other bike I have owned. She carves corners with the greatest of ease, and forget the straight and narrow, she is unheralded for her class. I have left vettes, teslas, beemers, benzees etc. in my wake not to to mention some of the other bikes who feel they are a challenge, but I have yet to go head to head with a real crotch rocket. I can say If the other bike does not have NOS its over, this thing is a Missile, truly unreal in the power delivery. I failed to mention I have the akripovic exhaust made specifically for her, and she was flashed and has a zero rev limiter. For those chomping at the bit over the cost you will get well past that once you have had 600 mile break in service done, all guilty purchase feelings Will Be Gone, and you will left with nothing more than a Huge Smile on your face :D Keep The Shiny Side Up.

People keep going on about the price but this is not the type of bike you buy as your first bike, you work up to it and trade in your current bike. I traded in my 1260s for the V4 so I wasn't looking at £23.5 and if you can afford this as your second or third bike, then you don't care about money anyway.
