It's been quite a long time since Ducati has left the cruiser segment empty, but things are now on a different track. Meet the Ducati Diavel, a brutal and beautiful muscle bike definitely not suitable for thew faint of heart.
If you thought Ducati's old Indiana cruiser was lazy, be prepared for the thrill of your life, as the Diavel packs the engine Ducati took from the 1198, and then has tuned it for a smoother and more linear power deployment. 162 HP are available at your fingertips, with the awesome throttle precision the ride-by-wire systems offer.

The 3 riding modes of the Ducati Diavel make sure you get the best form your bike while still remain on the safe side. The Urban mode leashes the engine to a 100 HP max, with full Traction Control, while the Touring and the Sport modes let those horses roam free under you full command.

The Ducati Diavel may be ordered with a pillion seat, but there's little chance to have fun on such a brutal bike while having to care for the person at your back. The 2013 Ducati Diavel is meant for aggressive riding, city streets and highways alike, while offering a serious alternative to other power cruisers such as the Yamaha MAX or Triumph Rocket III.

The Diavel is available in blue or red, but you can also order the Dark version (full black) or the Cromo version in a nice, eye-candy vintage chromed scheme. All Diavel versions sport a color TFT dashboard as standard.
