1199 For Diavel

Discussion in 'Diavel & XDiavel' started by Benvstheworld, Jul 31, 2018.

  1. Just exchanged my 2012 1199 for a beautiful 2011 diavel carbon.

    I’m an all weather rider and wanted to also take missus on the back.

    Waiting for it to arrive and have never ridden.

    Am I doing the right thing. Am I going to hate my life. Am I going to miss the pani.

    Help

  2. Its a different bike. Suck it up buttercup.
     
  3. yeah a bit different to the 1199, but the Diavel is more useable, nowwhere near as fast but you can do more with it and it will be just as much fun and the only problem will be running out of ground clearance whist keeping up with the sports bikes, have fun

  4. Night and day difference, I have the 1299 and the Diavel but I believe you will miss the 1199 due to the weight difference and the ground clearance.
    The Diavel is a blast but I believe the need for a sport bike will come back to bite you in the end.
     
  5. Ok the diavel is fucking amazing.

    Never had such a smile on my face, and the fucking SOUND, holy shit.

    Had a full termignoni system on both the panigale and now this diavel and it just sounds so much better on the diavel.

    It has that 1098 grunt to it
