What a beautiful bike!

Anyone ridden one?

I'd never heard of it until this post, but when I saw it was an alternative to a Harley expected to loathe it.
I really like it!

If I could have a dedicated track bike (sports) then this would be very high up on the list for a road bike (and I'm only 23!).

Not keen on it at all - It's supposed to be a very good bike though.

arctine · 20 Nov 2011 at 22:49

Ew.

Not a fan at all to be honest.

Where are you getting this gibberish from?

I love it.
I'll probably buy one once they filter down on the used market for sensible money.

They're not much than what your VZR would fetch!

Some pics might help this thread

I really want one!

Hmm bigger house or new bike?

Yeah, not much more but it's still money I don't want to spend at this point.
Once they hit £8k ish when they're around 2yrs old, I'll bag one.

Why is there not a 'like' button?

There is a chap I get on really well with down my local which I stop off at on weekend rides. He has one, let me ride it when we went out for a blast (he had never ridden a Ducati748/916 and was begging to ride mine!).

That Diavel with a Zord exhaust was a blast, so much fun in the low speeds. So much torque! Felt like I was being sling shot from a airline carrier everytime I opened the throttle. Fun bike indeed.

Wouldn't buy one though lol

There I fixed it. Saw one go over London bridge, man, they look odd with the weiny screen and tail angles being so similar.

A couple from the TT earlier this year:

Fart in my mouth, thats nice.

Benihana · 2 Dec 2011 at 12:24

Not a fan. Blergh!

It looks like a hunch back, it's to tight and squashed together looking at the front like they have tried to cram everything in a small space.

arctine · 4 Dec 2011 at 16:42

Disgusting.

VoG · 4 Dec 2011 at 22:05

Marmite tbh, you either love em or loathe em & i loathe them, if i was after an Italian twin that was a little different, the Guzzi Griso would be top of my list, the Diavel just wouldn't get a look in.
