Ducati DIAVEL CARBON WHITE ABS DIAVEL CARBON WHITE ABS reviews

It is very fast and fun. Great for touring and/or canyon carving. Has a small touring windscreen that works really well unless you are riding all day. Can attached side panniers too. Has cruise control and gas gauge. Mileage is not the best but it does have a 5 gallon tank. Overall this is an amazing bike but only as a second or third bike. Not as an only bike. Show less

Would like to start with the positives of the Diavel: Great bike, very easy and comfortable to ride! Powerful, Looks very good(my opinion). 3 riding modes that can switch on the run, sport very jerky at low speeds(gas is very sensitive) touring was best for me! still the 162HP but much smoother. Amazing keyless option, got used to it fast, miss it ever since. THATS IT! The bad? Big, heavy bike, its a long bike. absolutely no wind protection! So if you planning on long trips, must get aftermarket windshield at least. Use in the city? short commutes? bad idea, gets very hot FAST, terrible side exhaust pipes design, BURNS your right leg! Clunky chain(hits the swing arm) remove the plastic chain guide, got better but still there on bigger bumps. Mirror screw get lose, often. Very few shops agreed to work on it, its a ducati! Desmo service very pricey for what it is! Overall great bike if you can do the maintenance yourself. It was my second bike(beginner) however it gave me confidence when riding, it is comfortable, easy to ride looks and feels sporty, very easy to lean it in the corners. Its a heavy bike so even on windy days on the highway it was very easy and predictable to control it. Got used to all the above negatives and lived with them as the smiles per mile were way more then negatives! Enjoy it and definitely buy it! Show less

I was looking for a bike that I could use on weekend rides and day trip jaunts. I own a 2011 Victory Vision and it is a Fantastic bike. It can be a touring or bagger and single seat machine in minutes. I looked at a Moto Guzzi Audace but did not fit the bike. My other choice was a Diavel and I found the Strata in Houston. A 2014 with 2370 miles, practically new. I absolutely dig the looks and performance of bike. Going to throw some ideas and make her my own in short. Show less

I came from an HD and just never knew what I was missing. If you want a cruiser with power, then you need to ride this bike!!! Show less

I was wondering why the engine ran so rough at idle. The engine acts like it's cold-blooded. Once the rpms. increase, it smooths out. The bike develops most of its power at low end, so the torque is so strong it made my head dizzy. The brakes are good. For merging onto the freeway, this bike gets 5-stars. The power is THERE. I LOVE IT. The foot pegs are too small. The engine noise comes from one side of the machine. I would prefer split sound. The carbon version has a thin skin feel and feels too plastic, but you won't notice it when you crank the throttle. It doesn't matter what setting you have the traction control at. The machine is awesome. Nothing like it, period. It's an Italian sports car in a bike. Show less

Owned an St2 before purchasing the st4sabs. Wonderful handling and sounding bike but weak electrical system and clutch. 6 and 12 thousand services can vary up to four hundred dollars difference in price between dealerships. Oh, the price we pay for Italian craftmanship, a Ferrari on two wheels Show less

I wasn't planning on buying another bike but my every day ride a 2000 VFR with 38,000 miles died (fire). I ride every day year 'round and also do a couple track days a year. I wanted something reliable with better suspension and brakes. I purchased a 2003 ST4S at Speeds Cycle. I knew the bike had lots of grunt but fell in love with the suspension and brakes. Ride position is fine and it chugs along at any speed you wish. I drove straight to Daytona this year with no problems. Plug in power is great for heated clothing. Only maintenance issues were a dead battery (my fault) and it burned a quart of oil when new. Hard to get into neutral when stopped but you get used to it. Fully loaded with passenger and bags it rides the same as unloaded. It gets lots of looks and I love it. I'll drive it to the track, tape it up and ride this summer, can't wait. Show less

The 2003 ST4s-ABS in Senna Metallic Gray w/ bright red wheels, is an all day sport bike. The 996 motor stomps, it loafs along at 75 (mph)and eats up the blacktop. The abs brakes are phenomenal. The fit and finish is beautiful, typically Itailan. Show less

Post BMWR1100R experience, the ST4s-ABS rocks!. Smooth, potent, and fluid on mountainous curves. Rude Red and Curvacious at rest. Riding position is 1/2 Sport, unlike "sit up + beg" position on BMW. Short arms require a tank hugging posture to avoid numb wrists/hands. The bike is up to 750km - sure-footed on wet/slippery roads, beguilingly rapid on the blacktop. The best is yet to come! Show less
