Hmmm🤔….you’ll have to explain that one to me again Chad, I must be being a bit thick today 🤪 at 5:52 you talk about the back cylinders shutting down below 4K revs, which makes the engine run cooler, ….which reduces the weight,.. because the back cylinders are running cooler than the front cylinders ,…..🤔🤔..how does that reduce weight then 🤷🏻♂️?
It's way out of my price range, but I like it - good handling, good engine, great brakes and it's comfortable 👍 Negatives are the price, the cow's udder exhaust and the gimmicky rear wheel spokes - they don't look classy, I wouldn't want that wheel on my expensive bike.
Great video! So jealous you got to ride on a road they shut down just so you all could go test riding! Question: SO, I’m getting rid of my Harley Road King Special this year and want to replace it with a more nimble, lightweight, NON-Harley machine? Would this be the best choice from Ducati OR should I consider the Streetfighter V4S? Right now this new Diavel V4 looks like my best choice. Cheers!
Unreasonably expensive bike. I’ve owned the xDiavel for 5 years and sold it in oct 2022. Excited about the diavel v4 but also considering the top end BMW r nineT for city riding (my only use case)
very very good video, but sorry for neg comment about the bike, never worth that much money, can't sell me the story of italian quality and cost of development, every company has development costs and don't sell a piece of metal and plastic for 30k eur. 15-18k I could swallow, but other 15 is big fat DUCATI logo I have to pay. No tnx. Same as BMW, they are good bikes, but not close enough for the price.
Wow, Italian flare at its best. The bike looks futuristic. I love it.
Thanks for the review Chad! Love your work!
Great review Chad, thanks. Test ride on Friday, bought one on Saturday 👍
Excellent review!
Perhaps we need a new category. Bloody good bike category don’t stress where it fits!
Love it, ' we have 10 miles of closed road ahead of us', and an f'ing big 4wd comes tother way!!! That bike will be near impossible to improve!!!
looks really good! great review
It is gorgeous! 😍
Which looks better, red or black?

Ha! Yep, cooler not lighter.
Does the cylinder deactivation make the bike feel a bit lumpy when taking off?
No

The rear wheel is beautiful, very reminiscent of the xDiavel, very classy.
Must be rough Dubai in Winter on a Ducati👍
But someone’s got it do it! Rest assured, we’ll offer our UK roads verdict too.

If you're a fan of the forward pegs, you should take a look at the xDiavel.
Why has 5 other bike channels released a ducati video all at the same time...? 😂
It’s called an embargo, and it has been happening for years…
@@Mockle07 it's dumb af...am not going watch 5 different reviews for the same bike at the same time...
@@T3-RIDER no-one is asking you to 🤷🏼♂️😂
@@T3-RIDER I have just watched them all after each other
At least now we can see who does a better job so we won't waste or time in the future. That's what I'm using this opportunity for.
100% sweetness.
I'm trading my 2013 Ducati diavel and get this monster bike I'm sold 🥰🥰
Four exhaust pipes look shiiitte. (IMO).

Quite a bit of repetition in this video. It looks like a great road bike. A Mega Monster indeed!

So with the rear lights, how does one ditch the ugly licence plate hanger?
Short answer-you don’t. The indicators, number plate are all integrated in to it.
@@timh6845 That's not the problem it's the rear/brake lights positioning that is for a tail tidy.
Old bike was a pain in the arse to service. Costs just as much to get all its clobber off as it cost to service. Doubt this is any better.
