presentation of the DIAVEL 1200 DARK 2013

black, furiously black. The Dark Edition Diavel is as deep as night, as powerful as a slingshot of darkness. The kind of bike Batman would put in his garage. No fuss when it comes to paintwork: everything is painted matte black: forks, wheels, frame, cladding, exhaust.
Ducati's Dark bikes are also unique in that they are less expensive. The Diavel is priced at 17,490 euros, 1,500 euros less than the standard Diavel. Rest assured, the price only affects the color. You'll still get Brembo monobloc calipers, ABS, traction control, Riding Modes, huge 50 mm upside-down forks and 240 mm rear tire, sculptural design and the big 162 hp Testastretta 11° twin.
