Nice new shiny machine there!. I have a 13 plate DARK with Termis and thinking about changing her for summat newer...Xdiavel new is out of my league...plenty of nearly new machines around the Ducati dealership network.. wonder if my local Glasgow branch will have access to these bikes ...anyone??. noticed the price for a set of 'normal' pegs £600°.
I would test ride the XDiavel with the standard feet forward pegs for a good hour before deciding to spend your £600 on 'normal' pegs. Or if you do buy a bike wait a few weeks/months to make sure you really want/need them. You get used to the feet forward position surprisingly quickly, and for me it is part of the appeal of the whole bike. It shouldn't ride like it does when you are sat like that I'm not a fan of the 'normal' pegs on the XDiavel, I think it ruins the looks and the concept of the original, but each to their own. Either way you'll still love the bike - give it a go.
If you get to the stage of interest in an XDiavel S - mine is up for sale. I put an advert up today on the “for sale” section here. The feet forward pegs become very comfortable very quickly when you become familiar with them. In my opinion the rest of the ergonomics don’t lend themselves well to the peg adaption kit in the XDiavel and there’s little leg room when fitted. The seat on the XDiavel as also very comfortable. It’s the most comfortable bike I’ve owned by a mile.
