New Diavel Owner

  1. Hello,
    New Diavel owner here, red ABS (all Ducati's should be red!)
    Absolutely love it and have been commuting to work every day since taking ownership last week.
    Also ride a Victory Jackpot which I could not stand parting with. Very similar story to newbie Dave from Wales, as I went to the dealership to look at the XDiavel but was not overly keen on it being a little small when sat on. It may grow on me I guess.
    Made the mistake of test riding the Diavel and was hooked!:grinning:
     
  2. Some would say no Ducati should be a cruiser :p
    Yellow or Silver are the correct historical colours for a Ducati, Red is a 90's marketing ploy that most fell for :Angelic:
    Only 3 of mine are red :Finger:
     
  3. Does that include the prototype? :)

    Welcome Dave btw :)
     
  4. Yes, so I guess that doesn't count :) 2 of mine are Red plus the one the factory lost :D

  5. Had two others me self, an st4 and a 600ss both red.
    Ducati Manchester has a Red XDiavel with gold wheels. Not sure about the gold wheels myself. But the red looked good to me on the XDiavel.
    But the whole matt black thing is a bit Audi to me. Controversial??
     
  6. Hello and welcome to the forum.
     
  7. I was looking at the red (with white stripe) at Manchester this morning. I think it looks good with the gold wheels.

    DMC in Preston has a matt black and gold one too.
