2016 DUCATI XDIAVEL S

摘要

The XDiavel is Ducati's interpretation of a full-out cruiser motorcycle with forward controls, belt drive, and all. The Italian company got the cruiser thing mostly wrong, we're happy to say. Ducati got the low seat right, at 29.7 inches. The bike also has an obligatory relaxed rake of 30 degrees. And it has an insanely long wheelbase of 63.6 inches, which is even longer than Ducati's own Diavel. The resulting stance and silhouette can encourage enthusiasts into thinking it might be a cruiser, but riding the bike reveals that it's something more like a super-bike dressed up all odd like. The XDiavel performs... Part of that performance comes from the XDiavel's larger, 1,262cc Ducati Testastretta Desmodromic Variable Timing (DVT) V-twin engine and a full complement of all of Ducati's latest electronics: Riding Modes, Power Modes, Ducati Safety Pack (Bosch Cornering ABS and DTC), DPL (Ducati Power Launch), ride-by-wire throttle, cruise control, hands-free keyless ignition, full-LED lighting, and backlit handlebar switches. No modern technology was left behind.
