Pros and Cons in comparison

Ducati XDiavel S 2016

The X Diavel S from Ducati can do much more than you give it credit for. It rides nimbly and agilely through wide radii. In tight radii, you need a little pressure on the handlebars, but for a motorbike in this class, it offers unbeatable lean angle freedom. You can ride it sportily at high speeds. High-quality brakes and a great chassis complete this surprisingly agile riding machine. Clearly, the X Diavel S rides at least as well as it looks.

Surprisingly easy to handle on wide radii and also when cornering

high-quality chassis

great brakes

enormous power

high-quality appearance

high lean angle clearance

At high lean angles, significant pressure on the handlebars is necessary

strong set-up torque when braking for corners

Ducati Diavel 1200 2016

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.
