presentation of the DIAVEL 1200 CROMO 2012
a dose of vintage in one of today's most furious custom bikes, the cocktail is enough to flatter the eye before shaking the stomach. Although the Diavel is more akin to an elongated roadster-dragster..... Based on the standard model, this Cromo variation plays on a number of styling effects and elements to retro-visit its silhouette. The rider sits on a special saddle with horizontal grooves, just like the models of yesteryear. Retro-style Ducati calligraphy, chrome tank, black lacquered trim parts... The Diavel Cromo plays with nuance before firing on all cylinders. There are no technical changes to the chassis or engine, as the 11° testastretta is already sufficient to knock out the 240 gumshoe at the rear. This Diavel series will be available for an additional 2,000 euros... Outch. Still, it's more affordable than the AMG special.
