Ducati’s announcement that a cruiser was being added to its lineup caused considerable puzzlement. Why on earth did it want to lock horns with Harley Davidson? Launched in 2011, the resultant Diavelo (Bolognese dialect for devil) soon silenced the doubters with its sportsbike-derived (and WSB-winning) engine, sophisticated suspension, agile chassis, cutting-edge electronics and radical styling. Toting a huge 240-section rear tyre, the Ducati was crowned MCN’s ‘Machine of the Year’ for 2011. Arriving in 2015, the second generation Diavelo boasted a subtly modified twin-spark Testastretta motor and could be had in various ‘special edition’ guises such as the AMG Edition, Chromo, Titanium and Diesel. Inspiring something of a cult following, the outlandish high-performance cruiser remains in production today and even has its own internet forum.
Accompanied by a service book which was last stamped at 16,978 miles when ‘CE65 DXZ’ received replacement fork seals, chain sprockets and timing belts, this second generation example now shows 20,155 miles to its odometer. Offered for sale as a non-running project, the Ducati is nevertheless said to have ‘good compression’ and to be capable of starting with the assistance of a rolling road. The 'red key' is present, however, it can also be started keyless with a code. A V5C is on file.
