Segment: Naked / Road
Production years: 2015, 2016
As we know, Ducati only made two versions available, the Dark and Carbon which take part of the Diavel family of motorcycles. Known since Ducati started the first generation, the Carbon is a bit more special than the Dark model. The 2016 Carbon comes along with parts that increase performance and handling. Those parts are lightweight materials like carbon fiber that not only reduce its overall weight and boost performance but also give it a modern and visually pleasing look.
Some of the boosting parts are the carbon fiber tank panels, passenger seat cover, front mudguard, the Marchesini 10-spoked forged aluminum wheels, and a special Asphalt Grey livery with red pinstripes, which adds up to its aggressive look.
In all other departments, the 2016 model shares its features and technologies with the base model and takes its strength from the 1198cc liquid-cooled four-stroke engine that produces a power of 152 hp at 9,000 rpm and 123 Nm (91 lb-ft) of torque at 8,000. The exhaust has Stainless steel silencer with a brushed steel outer cover and manifolds coated with black ceramic Zircotec.
On the Trellis frame, the suspension oversees comfortable driving by having a 50 mm Marzocchi fully adjustable upside-down fork with DLC treatment on the front and a fully adjustable monoshock on the rear.
The 2016 Ducati Diavel carbon was for sale in 2022, starting from $13,000.
