Ducati Diavel 1260 (2020)

The Ducati Diavel 1260 is a behemoth of a motorcycle, boasting an unmistakable presence on the road. Launched at EICMA 2010, this iconic bike has since been refined and updated to deliver even more assertive lines and higher performance.

This ensures exceptional braking performance that rivals even the most seasoned sport bikes.

Rider comfort is paramount, thanks to an upright riding position and generous seating area. The Diavel 1260’s styling hallmarks include a forward-flung mass, streamlined tail, and prominent 240 mm rear tire. With its robust design, impressive engine capabilities, and exceptional comfort features, the Ducati Diavel 1260 is poised to dominate any road or terrain it encounters.
