Review of the Ducati Diavel V4: Devil's Own Vehicle
The Ducati Diavel V4 is an insanely powerful two-wheeled vehicle. The shocking thing is that, yes, you read that correctly, it is now even more manageable in the real world!
The devil's own vehicle is the Ducati Diavel V4! There isn't a better motorcycle for the devil to ride, assuming he exists. And for the past three days, I have been riding just that! The magnificent Diavel V4. Being constructed on an aluminum monocoque chassis, the Diavel V4 weighs 13 kg less than the 1260. The bike now has a V4 Granturismo engine, producing a whopping 126 Nm of peak torque and 166 horsepower. The motorcycle's engine is without a doubt its best feature.
Ducati Diavel V4: Capability
The Diavel V4 is paradoxical now. In the real world, it gets easier to handle while yet managing to preserve the character of the earlier Diavels. The motorcycle begins with a growl and makes a distinct thud sound as soon as you shift into first gear. This causes the entire bike to tremble and sway. Additionally, you'll notice that the motorcycle is calmer, you won't have to cling desperately to the handlebar, and the fuelling at low speeds is smoother than you may expect as soon as you get going—especially in the urban or wet mode.
Even when there isn't any significant lifting to be done, the rear bank of cylinders deactivates while the motorcycle is idle. However, the heat from the engine will eventually get to you if you are riding a motorcycle in traffic, especially during the sweltering Indian summer. However, as soon as you engage the sport mode and depress the throttle, the motorcycle accelerates like a rocket, with the front wheel seemingly reaching the sky. When you encounter an open road, the Diavel V4 will relentlessly accelerate to the point where you will struggle to control your speed because it will keep going until you tell it to stop.
Ducati Diavel V4: Managing and Embarkation
The Diavel V4 is lighter than the 1260 by 13 kg, making it simpler to manoeuvre around a corner. The rake and trail get sharper, but even with the enormous grip provided by the wide 240 section tire, changing directions quickly still requires a lot of work. However, there's no denying that the motorcycle gains even more agility.
Even though the Diavel V4 is undoubtedly not designed for Indian traffic or poorly maintained Indian roads, Ducati has tuned the suspension to be able to withstand the frequent undulations. Most speed breakers can be handled with ease by the ground clearance, but sharp edges must be carefully navigated.
