I’d like to ride the Diavel but even if it was the better bike (people say it is) I’d still have the Rocket 3. I’m clearly a discerning gentleman like you Richard. I’m pretty jealous. Wish I had the money for a bike collection. 👍😁

@@motomogul The Ducati certainly isn't better, just very different. Like wrestling with an unruly stallion. Whatever flicks your switch. None of these bikes are commuters although you could on the R3. Pidcock Ducati are just up the road. They told me I could have the Diavel for 3 hours however I took it back after 25 minutes. Without a time limit on the R3 I might still be riding it.

I admit it irks me a little that the Diavel is quicker than my Rocket 3 GT, but I just don't like the looks of the Ducati as well. Plus, once my warranty is up I'll be looking around for a flash and a tune. There's got to be a lot more available in that huge engine than the factory allows. Do I need more power? Absolutely not. But do I still want it? I'm afraid so.....

Hi Jason, it’s not my bike, I borrowed it from Pidcocks in Nottingham. When I spoke to Ian, the manager of the Triumph dealership, he said that people do a lot of mix and match with bars etc between the two models to get the setup they want. I think you’d probably get a more relaxed riding position with GT bars on. 👍

Awesome that you got to try this one out, I tried to reply to your previous video, the AT review, unfortunately my tablet played up and my comment didn't post. Regarding linking to your phone, I have a FreedConn R1 comm system, does video, radio, links to pillion and six other riders and also your phone for music, maps etc, all for just over £100. I've just ordered an Insta360 one X2 and a Rode Go wireless mic, tired of bad sound ( wind noise) and trying to sinchronise multiple cameras.

Thanks Michael. I’ll have a look at that system although I use Packtalk Bold for music etc. It’s not that music a loss to be honest, just annoying that it’s so difficult to use. I do want a decent mic though, getting a lot of crackles and wind distortion at speed. Will check out the Rode mics, thanks for the tip. 👍

I own one, just bought it, put 3k miles on it bringing it home from the store, west coast to TN. great trip. Would do it again in a heartbeat. Plan to do the four USA corners in a counter clock wise loop - FL, ME, WA, CA with her in the spring. Funniest thing so far... Having owned it for about 10 minutes, I thought, let's see what she can do. So I quickly twist the throttle and she does take off, well, like a rocket, so much so that as she pulls me aft, inadvertently twist the throttle even more, pushing me back even harder, thus even more throttle, more push... All the way to red line governor. Riders are NOT kidding when we say "you better hold on, because she will take off in an instant and assume the rider knows what he/she is doing". I am positive with some practice, I will get sub 3 second 0-60 times. Accelerate now, ask questions later, assuming you have held on!!

We don’t need a luxury tax as well. We have VAT. Value Added Tax. This 20% tax is a luxury tax of sorts which is added to virtually everything you buy in the UK. When I visited Aus in the late 90’s we thought it was a luxury not to pay vat on fuel. At the time petrol (gas) was half the price it is in the uk. It’s around £1.40 to £1.60 a litre at the moment.
