Pros and Cons in comparison

Ducati Diavel 1200 2018

All in all, the Ducati Diavel delivers exactly what it promises visually and surprises with easy rideability and nimble speed on hearty motorbike tracks. Optics and workmanship testify to a real passion for motorbikes. And as befits a devilish motorbike, the Diavel leaves no one cold at the regulars' table.

Improved engine compared to previous model

precise clutch

easy flank change.

Slightly uncomfortable on lousy asphalt.

Yamaha MT-10 SP 2023

The MT-10SP is a beautifully made naked bike. It has placed the exact right ingredients in the right places. It rides comfortably and gets really fast when needed. Basically, it is designed as a country road bike, but is still fun on individual trackdays.

Really great ride comfort

Great balance between sportiness, practicality and ride comfort

Fantastic engine response

Sensitive and practical chassis

High-quality frame including magnificent swingarm

Wonderfully relaxed seating position

Cool but not annoying sound

A real nakedbike

On a racetrack excursion, the bike seems a little too comfortable in the end - this is due to the inactive and comfortable seating position

the front looks a little lumpy

the brakes are good, but still seem undersized on such a top model - there's more to be done.
