Dauntless, irreverent, unheard of, the new XDiavel breaches the world of cruisers with Ducati values, merging concepts that apparently stand worlds apart. Travelling and relaxing to the comfort of forward controls combines with the performance and handling of a real Ducati. The new Ducati Testastretta DVT 1262 engine reconciles the two different personalities of the XDiavel, ensuring superbike muscle and a flat torque curve from the low rev range upwards.

XDiavel represents the merger of two worlds: that of the cruiser for long, low speed relaxing journeys, and that of the Ducati, characterised by Italian style, technical sophistication and very high performance. The X of XDiavel is just that: the crossover between apparently differing and distant worlds, united in a single bike, a synthesis where both are fully realised without any compromises.

Ducati is joining the cruiser world, doing so in its own particular way, by presenting a real cruiser but with the design, technological content and performance typical of the bikes of Borgo Panigale.

XDiavel is "low speed excitement", where a relaxed low speed is typical of the cruiser world, while the excitement and adrenaline of sports riding are the very values of Ducati.

Long, low, muscular, with modern shapes and technologically advanced systems. But above all sexy. A bike designed with the cruiser world in mind but also with Ducati DNA, steering the cruiser concept into modern times, and the future, a real "Technocruiser".

Extreme in its proportions, XDiavel has been deliberately designed "element by element". The frame, which is short and modern, is immediately recognisable as the classic Ducati trellis frame. The steel fuel tank recalls the cruiser world but retains the DNA of the Monster and Diavel. The front light, a very modern reinterpretation of the classic light of the naked Ducati, is now enhanced with the Daytime Running Light, making the bike instantly recognisable. And it is the same for the tail, silencer and seat: all elements which, if looked at individually, exist in their own right but which, at the same time, represent an extremely harmonious and balanced collection. Like many soloists coming together to create a great orchestra.

Its place in the cruiser world is clear in its proportions, shapes and details. This world, seen through a Ducati lens.
