hey man try the last 4 digits of your vin number for the pin code on your bike also it should be in the owners manual. or just call the dealer you bought the bike from and they will ask the guy who sold the bike to them for the pin code
Legends says that the Ducati riders spend more time talking about all the problems than actually riding it.
Have you ever been to Cleveland??
If you actually ride it, you'll quit complaining.
Legend also says there's four seasons
i believe he lives in cleveland (or at least within a 45-60 min drive). im almost 100% certain. been watching for a few years now so i think he brought it up once. and some of the scenery from city riding i think i noticed. u ride in cle?
@@xdiavelwoman5005 I have a 2019 Xdiavel S with 2 problems : First, the bike send the hit exhaust air back onto my back as soon as I reach over 40 mph. Second, the right side of the seat burns my ass and thigh. I wonder if you have the same problems of if it's just my bike . I hated it so much that I had done less than 300 miles since bought late september 2019.
3k for a exhaust? Lmao. I love bikes but the bike exhaust companies are professional robbers hahaha
Exhaust companies are amateurs compared to insurance companies.
We're very glad that you haven't experienced any of these problems. Could be because you haven't left the garage yet. Lol.
I think you should re-name the video since the current title made me think that you had already encountered problems with your bike. It should be something like "Common problems with ducati XDiavel" instead.
That wouldn't be very click baitish now would it?
Go tell someone that cares
mrblock2013 bwahahaha
No it wouldn't be since what CC did in this video was explaining some common problems that he heard the bike has.
yeah I changed it
CycleCruza I enjoy the honesty. It has directly influenced me in looking at a 2017 CBR1000RR. Digging it more and more! Thank you!
Dude that bike is sick! I’m excited to see you try this shit out. Again, I want to commend you for always making interesting content! Cheers
I have had a few Diavels. One of the two 2012 Diavels would go into neutral when in second gear and letting go of the throttle. A 2011 model I had had the same issue. When I took the 2012 to the dealership to get it repaired under warranty, they told me they couldn't reproduce the problem. I think they didn't know or didn't want to fix the problem. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
What ever happened to a review on the Valentine One, radar detector? talked about a month ago, did you ever get one??
The brakes issue might also be the Bosch cornering ABS. Initial bite is always reduced with abs because it's a break loose point of failure for traction. You should feel a slight pumping sensation when full ABS intervention is working.
All those problems sound like irrelevant bitches. I think you can find complaints on any bike. That is a sweet looking bike and you are going to love the torque. As far as vibration in the seat when it's running... it's a huge V twin. Can't wait til you ride it. Congrats again on the new bike.
I wish this weather would change already! This is torture just looking at it. lol
What makes me an idiot? LOL! None of those problems he listed were common and none are very serious.
When I was in Thailand a few years ago Ducati was shifting a lot of production to there. Where is the XD made?
UPDATE VIDEO: Why I might have to SELL my Ducati XDiavel S: czcams.com/video/zlkxs0C-RHo/video.html
What happened to never wanting to own a DOOGAAATIII???
How’s the XDiavel for longer rides 200-500 Miles? Is it comfortable? Is the suspension too stiff?
Love my XDiavel! No issues! Yes, get the Termis...next level! Roland Sands makes great bling for the bike! Enjoy!
Been following this channel for years. This channel is the reason why I got a 600RR for my second bike. So crazy to see this man own a Ducati. All I can say is good luck.
Yo Cruza, when you have ridden that XDiavel for a while, could you make a video about cable vs. hydraulic clutches?
NEW VIDEO: Got My FIRST Ducati Service Bill - Truth About the Cost to Own a Ducati: czcams.com/video/ipz-Utt2V4E/video.html
Cyclecruza, I went from a Wr250r to a cruza like u but one thing I have been struggling with is what to wear? Could u do a video what u think you will wear that goes with the cruiser style and also safe...
I have never had a problem with heat from the stock exhaust. The optional comfort seat really improves rear shock to the spine. I really would like Ducati to offer a quick shifter. I think might agree after you really get on the throttle!!!
If you are looking for bar end mirrors, take a look at CRG mirrors. Revzilla sells them. The mirror is lined with a rubber gasket that absorbs the vibration from the engine. It's like looking out of a car mirror. I have a set on my Duc.
Can’t wait to see ur 1st motovlog on that bad motorscooter
How much and where did you get that bike ramp the red one in the floor
ah you know , all bikes have some problems you know, you have a dream
bike, it will come a bit more expensive in a long run, but it's worth it, and you know it! Best
wishes from UK!

I wish u more success with ur channel and great rides with your ducati
Did Ducati address those mirrors? Are they sending replacement mirrors?
Smart man. When I rode Ducs, I took it in for the prescribed maintenance. Aside from a slip on on one them, they were stock. Ducati never gave me a hard time about fixing any issues with the bikes...and there were a few. One of them happened a year and several thousand miles after the warranty had expired and Duc still fixed it on their nickle.
As to the cold start thing, my second Duc (an STs) had that issue that the first (an ST) didn't have. Turned out to be the gel battery. Put a lead acid in it and it worked fine in the cold. Had the same issue with an FJR later on. Tech replaced battery with a gel and it wouldn't start in the cold. Went back to a lead acid and all was well again.
Where can I get those gel padded shorts you were talking about?
Cold start issues happen on some Italian bikes, pick up a lipo battery if you run into it.
Bring that Ducati to Colorado in the summer and ride some REAL twisties in the canyons west of Denver.
Lets go. I live in Denver.
Always
I used to live in colorado! Yes, lots of great scenic twisties. I took my wr250r to pikes peak in a bug out trip back in 2015. Those are fun twisties but all of the slow tourists took away the fun I could have had.
czcams.com/video/m8E6Pw-PVYI/video.html
I know some roads through the heart of the Rockies where you can escape the tourists (and just about everyone else).
Why the hell did you move to all places like Ohio? Damn.
It will smooth out at speed and belts last years can't wait for you to get that bad boy out on the road
Hey CC, do a video on what you think about Irish Road Racing?
I'm stoked on the termy exhaust and the bar ends ! That's one pretty bike
My friend’s XDiavel has an issue with the clutch… it grabs extra hard / early when cold…
When sitting in traffic, with enough heat it will re-engage and the clutch becomes engaged even with your clutch handle fully depressed… the Character flaw is that it’s a devil and tries to kill you in different ways 🙃
Some people mentioned replacing the slave cylinder but not sure if that’s the same problem with this bike
This is going to be interesting to see how the reliability is on your ducati. Congrats on the bike bud!
Hell yeah. I'm excited to see you do your maiden ride w/review.
Whats the rate on Ducati services there?
Looking forward to seeing you ride that bike bro!
I am going to pick up a 2011 one (First Gen) tomorrow, hope I dont get all these problems.
The back brake was a minor inconvenience when I rode the Xdiavel I thought it was just that I was not used to the position of the forward controls. But then I am used to riding classic Japanese bikes 25 years old or more so I have developed a riding style that compensates for spongy brakes! A word to the wise - main dealerships sometimes ain't all they should be. A dealership is only as good as the mechanics it employs. A good private Ducati expert should be able to do as good or a better job. However I recognise that you may have limited options to shop around!
Enjoy your new bike dude. Looks awesome ! Don’t worry about the issues. If they happen, they happen 😉
hey CC now that you are out of your comfort zone, will you ever consider to get a harley?
David Ryder i mean not right now but after he gets rid of this bike or decides to buy another
David Ryder yea man i understand.
just a thought tho have a nice day
Love the lighting!!!

Cyclecruza, congratz on your bike. i wondered about the rear pecs (the stands for your feed). as i heared they are sometimes in the way when you do a standstill on this bike (probably depends on your body height/width). Do let me know about this whenever you have had the time to take this baby for a spin (on a nice weather day in winter :) )
Hey Cruza, love the bike! Just ride it & don't worry bout other people's issues, I think you're gonna love it. I ride the balls off my Sportster & if something breaks or wears out I just fix it. So far I've had no issues, I don't waste my time worrying about what "could" happen. Look forward to your first ride vid!
Great setup
My New Video: One possible concern with Ducati XDiavel: czcams.com/video/mb381OLkdCk/video.html
hey man a little wrenching is part of having a motorcycle, don't let a little cons bring ya down, they are bound to be there...congrats man a 3 bike bike garage, with 3 unique bikes is pretty badass...screw the haters keep doing you
My XDiavels problems: 1. Main problem is getting suspension set. Any bumps cause a sharp upward and backbreaking smack on the butt. Some of this is likely because of front forward footpegs. It's very unnerving when hitting a blind bump as the bike bounces and flexes a lot, especially corners. 2. Fuel gauge sensor. I gave up replacing it after the 3rd one stopped working. 3. I replaced the stock exhaust with a Termi, not for the sound or power but because I was sick of the constant "engine light on". The problem was the exhaust valve always sticking and the cable from the servo snapping. 4. Front wheel gets a bit light at high speed - could be because I can't get the suspension right. 5. Last problem is I can't get rid of it because it's such an Awesome bike
Can’t wait for that first ride. I’m ready to get mine. Real soon
Cyclecruza, I must say I was seriously considering this bike while shopping for my first bike last year... I was kinda looking for a jack of all trades bike that could be used for cruising the city, relaxing rides in the country, but also for the occasional trip to the coast, luggage included. In the end I settled for a new Yamaha FJR1300. The Xdiavel just seems too unrefined, 2 cylinders too few, price too high, maintenance too high, tyres that wear too quickly, no real practicality, no wind protection, no all-weather capability... All it has is that cool factor, even though that too might be dismissed as garish ostentation.
Nothing's perfect bro. You're bike is super cool, so love it for what it is :)
I always appreciate your input Bro.. good shit always 🤙
Interesting. Looking forward to the Vlog.
I rode this bike. No good for us shorties. Im 5’6 and the break and shift controls are up in the front. Not cool. I like to be tucked in when I ride. Makes me not slack off and stay at attention when riding.
I feel your pain man, i just bought a new bike today and now i have to wait until spring to ride it.☹
You gotta get some throttle spacers for this baby it makes a huge difference with throttle response.
awsome vlog !!
tk u 4 the update !
So you always call it the "CBR one THOUSand double ARRRRRR", you gotta call the diavel the "FOOKIN DUCATI" everytime you introduce it.
Limited rear suspension travel and an upright riding position equals spinal compression and pain. This has been noted by many reviewers.
I rode a Scrambler with a Termi and even with earplugs it was booming in my helmet and the plugs were tight. The trouble is the sound is right down there next to you. So I liked the stock exhaust better.
yeah it's crazy to say but the termi exhaust is a bit too loud. I might just keep it stock, 3k is ridiculous.
It’s 51 degrees in Cleveland brother....Let’s go for a ride! Hopefully you got the Ducati out today
I like the cbr the most. So cool you have all 3 types of bikes. When is the Africa Twin getting here?
Ethanol free fuel is virtually a must for anything that doesn't have it's tank emptied once a month or so. Biobor EB can help avoid those issues, and stabilizes both the ethanol and the gas, and can be used to stabilized ethanol free gas, too...it had the best results in an independent test.
If you have rubber brake hoses switch them to braided metal. Good way to get rid of some of the spongy feeling.
FYI - New Video: Why I will NEVER BUY another Ducati Again: czcams.com/video/5wzjtLMwdUE/video.html
NEW VIDEO!
Why you take down your new video: (
I forgot to mention, Lucas Ethenol fuel stabilizer and treatment, it's the Green colored Lucas bottle at Auto parts store. I keep it in my old cars and old carbed Ninja.
When are you gonna ride the Ducatay
Do you really have to drain the gas tank to store it? Why cant you put a fuel stabilizer in it?
Don't run that corn gas CC. You know what octane number the Ducati requires?
3000$ exhaust :o Save that money and buy 4th bike to your collection in the future. :)
m k $3000 for a motorcycle exhaust is crazy.
Termi are ridiculous cost. There's other brands that are just as good without the expensive complex "bling" shapes and bends on common systems these days.
Cool bike, love that sound. Powerful!
Cycle cruza. You have to do a fender eliminator kit pleeeeaase! It would clean it up sooo much.
*NEW VIDEO:* Top 5 Stupid Things CycleCruza Said: czcams.com/video/9R7RmjaLasc/video.html
maybe you should have updated your cbr to the new sp model in black
fuel stabilizers like "Stabil" help w cold starts on all my bikes, FI & carb. esp the carb bikes.
A workmate chopped in the original Diavel (with no problems) for the new XDiavel. Months of grief with engine management problems and it going back to the dealer six times before he said "enough". £1000's poorer, he bought a Triumph Bobber. Ridden really hard it never missed a beat. Changed that for a Triumph Tiger 800 XR, again no problems and now riding a Triumph Thruxton, again hard, and trouble-free. See not all European bikes are unreliable. My '15 BMW R NineT was perfect. Now how to fix the faulty fuel level sensor on my MV Turismo while my '18 Indian Scout is in, waiting for a replacement ABS sensor and engine management issues. Damned electrizicals!
New Video: Why EVERYBODY should experience a Ducati: czcams.com/video/PC9UUKeo66k/video.html
Glad to see you step out of your comfort zone, you will love the F'n Ducati!!!
I’m glad you bought it! You won’t have any issues with it.
Cyclecruza that looks like a real dream man cave. Only thing I'd add is a Camaro and a Wrangler.
you mean a twin trurbo supra and 3000gt vr4
Could'nt agree more mate. 2 doors or GTFO. You wanna haul family, get a honda odyssey.
Sure, whatever works for you man. Wanna be JDM tight? Be JDM tight.
Maybe the mirror itself can be popped out to access screws on the inside

So everything has some type of “issue,” and sometimes we create issues like adding mods. Mods aren’t a bad thing but we feel the need to fix something that isn’t broken:-)
If you have a little issue here and there I hope you don’t let that diminish you experience, it’s all part of it baby!
Can’t wait for you to ride that beast!
Are you going to remove that sissy bar? That’s the first thing I would do. Can’t wait to see how what of it when you take it out for the first ride
Ducatis are not like they used to be, the issue they used to have was services were 7,500 miles apart for valve adjustment, and belts. People purchased the bikes and did not properly maintain the motorcycle then complain they breakdown. Now they went to timing chains and stretched their services out to 15k. I have owned a 848, 1198, and Panigale, the only issue I ever had with the 1198 and 848 was the rectifier. The Panigale I have not had 1 problem with it.
This bike actually has 18k mile valve checks.
Yes, I know the Xdiavel does. I have a Panigale which is every 15k. Ducati stretched their services out in general for motorcycles with timing chains. I am a Ducati tech. they used to be every 7500 miles because the belts needed to be changed. Typically the valves are always good, but they still have to check clearances. Ducati valve adjustments just suck because for each head there is 8 shims (1 opening, and 1 closing shim). So that makes 16 shims to check clearance on. Other bikes usually only have 8 shims. From my experience they are almost always in tolerance and rarely actually need to be adjusted.
Todd Baker finally spmeone woth half a brain. 99% of people who have problems dont do the proper maintenance until it breaks and then complain. Everybike has to be maintained. My cbr600rr left me stranded on a major highway my rsv4 rf has not hmmmm. Doesnt meam Honda is shit lol.
My friend got one and he had way too many issues since. Rear brake. Clutch. Starter. Fuel gauge. Lost a blinker. Lost a piece of the pipe and so on.....
I like this channel alot. Some motto vloggers are stuck up
Very nice bike man but I don't get how they get away with calling it a Cruiser just because it has forward controls.
"Need to do some squats" 🤣
Otr, very helpful info in this vid
I don't understand why Ducati would have their exhaust tips pointed upward to where the seat was. Didn't they see that problem before build completion?
Gates has a cell phone app that checks belt tension. That new exhaust is lighter in part because it's probably cheaper to build and also lacks rare Earth's. You don't need to speed faster than stock on this it already has good speed. It will be a useless mod unless you wanted to road race in the mid triple digits frequently.
That bike is sick! cant wait...
