The X Diavel S had exactly the same effect on me when I rode one. I bought a Diavel which I still have and love. No reliability issues or anything, just a total blast. Anyhow, must dash, I'm going for a ride :-)
Hey Sam, why did you go for the Diavel over the X? Cheers mate (from Adelaide).
I love my xdiavel s, for 30 years I been ride sport bikes, but three half years ago I got hit by a truck so new a hip, knackered knee and shoulder, so can't get on them anymore, looked round for along time for the right bike with all the power, handling and stopping power I needed, it takes me back to the old muscle bike from the 80s but on another level. I'm only 5 feet 7. and round 9 1/2 stone and still throw the bike round. I recommend anyone having a test ride on one
I almost traded in my Harley FXFBS 114 FAT BOB a few days ago for the XDiavel, but I didn’t go through with it. I want the XDiavel now after watching this video! I love my Harley FAT BOB 114, but the XDIAVEL is such and intelligent, sophisticated and modern bike which I greatly appreciate. My Harley is amazing, but it’s very simple and very old technology. I want something supremely MODERN now!
I love this bike , it looks to me that it sounds, looks, and rides like my next dream bike. It is just the best balance between sport and cruiser for me.
Exactly. It’s absolutely everything you could want all in 1 package. Absolute dream bike for me as well.
Cool review man, thanks alot. I own a Ducati xdiavel 2017 black/gold custom. Second hand only 6,000km I love riding it for sure. Doubt very much if I will ever sell it I am 63, and so far have rode it at 240kmph!😅
Nice! Great to see other dealers realising our worth! Well done Mr Fishy 😁
Lamb Chop Rides the motorcycle industry isn’t exactly forthcoming when moving with the times 😂
What a great video! Well done Mr Fish! Absolutely love that bike! Not sure I could spend that much but what a tool it is! I can imagine it's totally addictive to ride and understand all the emotions you had on it! Love this style of review too, doesn't always have to be the latest from whoever, just a quality older bike will do. You didn't sound like you were a salesman either! Thankyou!
Rob H thanks mate 👌
I absolutely love these and the conventional Diavel, they are my kinda bike and tick all the right boxes for me.
But the internet is full of reports of consistant reliability issues with these, so buying one outside of warrenty would be a big risk, but buying new is just out of the question due to heavy price tag.
Also my local Ducati dealer is rubbish, shame really as i'd have one tomorrow otherwise.
Great review btw 👍
Coming from a new SDR 1290 I loved this XDaivel when I test rode it, however I struggled with the riding position. The Daivel S I rode after felt great but I think I need to give the X another longer ride.
Your right about the torque it's like nothing else! 😂
It never ceases to amaze me what is considered a road over in England.
lol , more fun
Many of our main roads were built by the romans 2000 years ago, the rest started out as just glorified tracks joining up the Roman roads. Very few are straight.
@@paultaylor701most haven’t been maintained since the romans built em👎
Rear brake is a real problem...ducati recalled my XdiavelS to fix it ..finally
Yes it has been announced by ducati. My XdiavelS is still under warranty also....check with them, safety first !
That bike reached down your throat, pulls out your hooligan and waves it around like a victory towel at a football game. I was tempted to stop watching so you and the machine could have your moments alone. :D
Yes I think Mrs Fish will be sleeping alone tonight.
Ronald Boe we are having a trial separation
@@Mrfish2015 One reason I sold off the Griso; it was not healthy to let the hooligan out. :D
Love that testride. Yes Im looking at it even if Im just home from a ride on my Diavel 1260 ; )
If you like that get yourself a ride on the multistrada ENDURO model
Will blow your mind. Great vid 👍👍
Gary Taylor I would love to
It's nice but it ain't as nice as my Moto Guzzi Audace 1400 (I was looking at a Diavel but the big service costs about 1000 pounds to change all the belts and pullies every 10k~12k miles) so I got the Guzzi instead and yes it's heavier and less painful it's still a blast to ride and as a ex GSXR 1000k4 mad owner belive me it is! Sweet video my man keep up the good work!
That is awesome they have given you the keys to their toy box, can't wait to see what you get to play on!
The beast that is the Diavel is a bit too large for me, but they are cracking looking bikes! :-)
You’d get on fine with it
The Diavel has a low seat height and once you start moving on it, it feels light and manoeuvrable.
@@TheAgalmic Ahh maybe the one I saw had been modified, had forward controls, my little legs would never have reached them! :D
@@HippoDrones The Diavel has mid controls, the xDiavel has forward controls but, you can get a kit to make them mid.
@@TheAgalmic ahh fair enough, I should have looked at the deets better 😁
Not bad , not bad at all !!!!!
Spooky 01 funfunfun
Just received mine the other day. Got it in iceberg white 🙌👌
Looking forward to seeing the videos on the used bikes 🙃🙂
Moto Matt thanks
Nice video Fish! That's sweet....Sent over by Bo Dean 52😁.........Ride hard or stay home😎
FatBob Jim welcome
Great review Sir, just bought a 16 plate 2 weeks ago with only 600mls on her and in love. I do find they have a lot of vibration through the frame etc but then never ridden a twin before and especially nearly a 1300cc twin lol
Flibbertigibbet under warranty still?
The modes don't change the power btw, they change throttle position to make it more sensitive. You have the same power in sport or tour, you just need twist your wrist more with one over the other.
After watching this video made me pull the trigger and splashed out. Mr Fish great video and I can understand how you feel great bike.
You clearly enjoyed riding that bike. Good video!
Same unexpected reaction. Massive smile and electric tingling all over that would not stop. Bought one and now "Francesca" gives me a better ride and more thrills than riding Space Mountain every day!! All from a bike
wait?? I thought all reviewers on CZcams were 5'8" with a 32 inch inseam, surely this is the law!!!
Will F just the one...TMF
🤣🤣 gold!
My son bought one and pressured me to buy one. Guess what I bought it and love it.
the best video and bring more especially the rocket 3 on that same route
That sir is my dream bike
Hollarmoto its a worthy dream
You saving up for one ?
Good review and Funny commentary! Thanks for sharing
Be interested in you doing a benelli 502c cruiser test after that,1/3rd of the price n power but similar looks.
Des Gibbons if I can get hold of one I will
I am getting a demo of this bike today. its like the bike version of J-LO from the back. thanks for sharing your thoughts
Would love to see you take a 2nd generation Diavel out for a ride brother and hear your thoughts. I'm looking at buying either of the two around 2016/17 year.
I'm coming from a KTM SDR1290 and over the winter I've been riding an old XT660R. Green laning it 😂
Now need something a little bit spicy for the summer 👍
Nice , I would love a go on a newer one
@@Mrfish2015 The new 2019 Diavel, which is the same 1262 engine in the X had some dodgy fuelling issues, bit of a handful around roundabouts. Salesman said he could sort with a full termi pipes and remap! 😂
Did I hear right? 'This is a touring screen'. I dont need 160hp, would rather have a Harley. Nice review tho. Cheers.
splodge 57 I laughed when they told me , a Harley is a different type of cruiser all together
Testriding exotics used bikes for free is a good option for all who have not enough money or influence to get new ones ;)
Looked like fun
henry brewer it was
This bike 👌🏾😯😛 frickin stellar
Keep up the good work Fishy
Wow! Love it...
Henry Hartley 👌
Lol.. I think I need that bike so I can get an illusion that I am a good looking man..:D
My dream bike. 😍
Please do a review for the fucati scrambler 1100 sport pls pls
Brillianr bikes 👌
Good video mate.
@Mr Fish would you recommend this bike for someone 6’4?
Go and sit on one , most bikes don’t fit me as I have long legs , everyone is different so no easy answer I’m afraid
It is a sexy back end. shame the rest dosn`t do it for me.
So you don’t like it then 😂😂
Great video as always 👍
SparkyRides naaa
Great review
Beast of a bike. 14 grand of beast
Does this tiny windscreen do anything or just look?
Noice noice, try n get hold of a royal Enfield classic 500 and go for a rip... A slow rip but plenty of character haha
BUSHCRAFT AND FISHING WITH THE PIKEY if I can I will
Glorious sound - magnificent audio. How much does the tank hold? Back to the 250 Honda?
Nice one Mr. Fish, quirky looking Diavel, was the rear wheel from a Subaru Impreza?
Can you imagine how it would run if you got it out of neutral? :) (looks like the neutral light never went off)
Ronald Boe that’s the headlight lol
@23:50-24:00
Somehow I can't imagine anyone being shy or retiring being the type to ride a motorcycle.
Then again, I haven't learned to ride a bike yet....
I am 😊
Where’s the speedometer
It's under the bar @ 21:10 on the video
On the screen , go to the walk around bit
Just a little bit sexual indeed. Lol. Great review, great personality. Thanks for the insights. I’ll now consider getting a certified used one rather than necessarily new.
Hey mr fish. Get your hands on a 2020 diavel s. with quick shifter. Poop your pants stuff.
Would love to see a head to head with this and the new forthcoming Rocket 3. Automotive porn!!!
That bike looks sexy as #$%#..sounds nice too..so when is it going into your garage
Neil powell when I have enough money lol
Is it faster than your Rally? :]
Appropriate end tune Mr Fish. Bet your still on the couch.
Nobullnonofit love the tune 👌
Why didn’t you buy this. Man I would of sold a kidney.
Pause… Mr.Rideanything
The bike looks great, but it doesnt look fun
Shaun Barclay doesn’t look fun ??
I bought one a few weeks ago and trust me these bikes are tremendous fun
@4.27 looks like some dirty bastards been fly tipping
I don't you should buy it Fish unless you really like doing porridge. Deeper rumble than your African.
