I really like your bike upgrades you have done, and let you know I have the same beautiful bike. So I wonder if you can give me more information on your suspension, like which one you got and the difference compare to the stock. Thanks and have great new year.
Thanks, Carlos. I went with Ohlins for the rear. Wonderful upgrade, especially if you have the 2016 or 17 model. Make sure to provide them with your riding weight so that they give you the right spring. Highly recommend it.
@@gtg830e Hi buddy, so far I haven’t be able to upgrade my suspension, I been very busy and no time for ridding nor shopping, but I hope this year I will upgrade my suspension, thanks for checking, cheers:)
Love the bike! Just bought a 2017 XDiavel myself and the Zards look and sound the best in my opinion! After a Healtech Quick Shifter, Zard exhaust will be next.
@@gtg830e Great... planning to get mine soon with similar upgrades plus the carbon wheels. Everyone has the BST wheels so i am looking at the Rotobox or Kineo. Tossed up between getting the Diavel and xDiavel. Leave the backrest and make our "BETTER HALF" happy. They are more important than so-called loners or purists
Excellent! You will love it. The color combination was all provided by Zard. I would highly recommend calling them to get the color combo I got. Black with silver caps.
@@gtg830e I like how Zard looks compare to Termignoni. I think Zard sound not bad at all... I'm still using stock so was doing some research before doing the purchase...don't want to regret later. This hobby is not cheap...hahaha.
Exhaust yes, passenger rest no, side mirrors no (stock Diavel mirrors are gorgeous and distinctive, not like so many other common bikes with those handlebar end round mirrors- common, boring and this is anything BUT a boring bike). All else nice.
@@gtg830e Yes they have one that's rated for up to 180 lb rider that has a black spring then another model number for heavier than that and tuning accordingly.
Loud pipes flatter egos and give you tinnitus !
Very tasteful, love it!

@@gtg830e thank you 👍
Wondering if you ever got around to upgrading the suspension. If so, how are you liking it?

This is what they brought us on 8th July 1947 :)

Agreed . Zard looks the best! I think it sounds the best as well....but that Termi is something unique.
I love that Zard exhaust. Back rest has to go.
How about installing ROTOBOX carbon wheels or Kineo Wheels?
Right!!! I have an update coming hopefully in the next few weeks. Should be a good one!

Is this Sound same for EU ?
the backrest missing would give the bike a perfect look
Lovely bike! Do the Zards require an engine re-map?
Thank you. It does not, according to their website. I’m waiting on brenttunning to come up with something.
Thumbs up
Question. Where did you get the silver caps for the exhaust? Just ordered my zard and would like it to have the same end caps.
Excellent! You will love it. The color combination was all provided by Zard. I would highly recommend calling them to get the color combo I got. Black with silver caps.
Which is the better sound, Termignoni or Zard? How much is Zard full system for the XD
ha! Hard to say man. I personally love both. They are so so different in sounds though. I will upload a side by side video as soon weather plays nice.

What model Ohlins did you get? Got a part number?
I don’t. You can go on their website and it will pull up for your model.
@@gtg830e Yes I know but there's a couple of different options.
@@ozzie444 oh I didn’t know that. I’m not sure, my local shop ordered it for me after getting my weight.

sizzy bar is always thumbs down. Sorry but it kind of ruins the look.
