[@BurntBarbeque]

Of all the bikes including touring, sports, naked, Japanese, German, Italian, Diavel is still my favorite. It is a drag machine which beats any non moded sports bikes up to 80 miles like SRK said. Non only due to the power but also because of the big rear tire gripping the tarmac hard. I had fun with Panigale as well but Panigale is only fun if you go over the certain speed. Diavel is fun from the startline. It is quite comfortable and very stable at high speed. It may not be as nimble as Panigale, but amazingly so considering the large tire and long wheelbase. Not many bikes can be fun and comfortable at the same time. Not many bikes can be big and nimble at the same time. It is only Diavel that does them all. But maintenance wise, believe what everyone else say it will do to your wallet.

[@maynard-1776]

I believe it's the incredible amount of compression that slows the starter down so much

[@blockeduser5769]

[@progste]

it's just the cranking motor they use on ducati bikes

[@elmoomle4565]

Having owned a few of these Bologna Bullets...it's a combo of high compression, extreme bore to stroke ratio, and the fact that it's supplied with a regular wet battery. Changing the battery to a far superior LiFePO4 battery cures the sluggish starting.

[@garyhalsey7693]

I was two up in the back of my brothers’s Diavel this summer and it was absolutely mental. Even with me on the back it still takes off like a scalded cat! I agree, it is THE BADDEST cruise around!! Great video Sean, lovin the channel and lovin the words of wisdom!! Ride safe dude.

I’m not really much into the styling of most modern cruisers but I really love the looks of this. It barely even looks like a cruiser at all. It’s like they took a sport bike and changed the rider position around enough to make it more cruiser like and they did it without making it look goofy.

[@LunchBXcrue]

I love that passenger peg design! I've only owned two bikes, a cbr300r and a 2020 street triple r, on both I always left them facing out cause they may stop parts of the back of the bike from hitting the ground if I ever dropped it. If it weren't for that I would get the delete panels for them.

[@guitarman0365]

I don't see any diavels with forward controls. All models have and S somewhere in the name. S dark stealth, S dark steel and 1260S All versions have mid controls. Unless forward controls aren't available for the dealers in my country maybe which sucks or older models that have been discontinued had it. Hopefully you can add at least forward rests when not shifting to make up for it.

You miss the fact that vmax weight 220 pounds more than the diavel. 1/4 mile diavel's the best time stock was 9.9 seconds vmax 1700 the best time stock 9.8 seconds. The bikes are equal in straight line performance the better rider will win no bike is more powerful or auto win but the main difference is in handling, Vmax can't corner it's legit straight line only bike but diavel is pretty nimble and actually can keep up with sport bikes on the track. Hands down diavel is a better bike for everyday use, You can do everything on this bike. Vmax is amazing bike but as far as handling goes it's worse than harley bikes.
