    I really wanted a totally blacked out Diavel when I bought it, but…..it really numbs all the great body styling the bike offers. Good call on the iceberg white 👍

    Cheers, glad you enjoyed the vid 👍. I’m actually close to the Muskoka region . Just North of Toronto. I usually catch 2 or 3 in cottage county. But that’s about it , really rare bike , which makes it that much cooler ( I think). The Victory is a GREAT choice too 👍 Cheers

    $1100 for tyres, bloody hell. I'm in the UK and we are always ripped of big time and I bought a set of rosso 3s last month for around £500 for my diavel. Desmo service here is again around £500-600 However, great review Thankyou.

    In Singapore, it’s much cheaper. $600 plus Singapore dollars for front & back tyres. Unfortunately only Pirelli’s available. I wanted to try the Michelin but were too expensive & most dealers don’t carry them.

    in city riding , I’ve noticed it seems to run hot at lower speeds . Not OVER heating but the fans keep kicking on a lot . And you can definitely feel the heat coming from that motor. As fun as it is to rip from light to light , I’d say more open road .

    @@bonsalpepperful at those temps, I tend to ride very conservative. The tires are incredibly sticky , but …. Feeling how hard this bike pulls on dry pavement, there ain’t no way I’m testing its limits on cool and wet tires . I’ve unfortunately have been caught in cool rainy conditions, put it in Urban mode, and never gave me any indication of a loss of traction . I’m sure it handles far beyond what I’d push it too on cool or wet days . Oh… it seems to run “ smoother “ on warm days too. Sorry for the long response, lol

    I have owned a few different makes of bike and I can tell you my XDiavel is a very expensive bike just to keep running. If money is a factor in your decision making bear in mind Ducati's are like having a girlfriend with very expensive taste. Nothing Ducati do comes cheap. You pay for class but if you can afford it they are so much fun to ride, very much like a classy girlfriend.

    @@ichbinmartin As I said taste is subjective. You call big HD's and Indians really good looking and I think they are ugly and the rest of your list doesn't make sense, as there are many kinds of triumph, Suzuki's and BMW's. Which models do you find attractive. By the way most people I haven talked to about the new Rocket think it was based off of the Diavel. Odd that you think one is ugly and the other is he one you decided to buy. I also own two Rockets, an old and new one and an XDiavel. I traded in the Diavel I had when the XDiavel came out, bought that on brand new. When I bought my second hand triple black Rocket a few months ago I kept the old one. I'll never sell my 2004 Rocket. I have customised just about everything on it, I have made it mine.

The most common thing I heard people say about the new rocket when it came out was it looked like a Diavel on steroids. As I said taste is subjective, I find most HD's and most Indian's ugly and the rest of your list doesn't make sense. There are many different kinds of Triumphs, Suzuki's and BMW's. I also just got myself the new style Rocket, triple black one, a few months ago. I kept my old 2004 Rocket too, so now I have the set. I traded in my old Diavel in for the XDiavel when it came out so I also own a Ducati. I would have kept the old one if I could have afforded it at the time. I still miss it.
