Unfortunately, our editors did not test this model.

Ducati Diavel 1200 2011

For us, the Diavel is a big hit. Sure, the bare figures, the tough looks and the sheer acceleration are impressive. But what impresses most is the fact that this muscle bike can also be ridden beautifully and safely thanks to electronic riding aids and the high-quality components.

Traction control

ABS

low seat height

smooth, pleasantly controllable engine

good brakes

high-quality concept.

Sitting position somewhat suboptimal

lacks wind protection

chassis conditionally strenuous.
