Default New Addition to the Family

I decided that I needed some excitement so I just bought a 2011 Ducati Diavel (162 HP)...of course I kept my Streetglide.

Smile New Ducati

Well, if you can afford a brand new Ducati and a Harley, surely you can afford the maintenance on the Ducati.

CONGRATULATIONS on your purchase and success!
Enjoy your riding experiences.

Its a very comfortable ride, the foot controls are more forward than a sport bike and the bars are in an upright natural postion. Ducati classifies it as a Sport Tourer. Traction Contro & ABS are programmable with 3 driving modes (Urban-100hp, Sport-162hp & Tour-162hp with a more forgiving throttle)

18 and change out the door, I've typically always had 2 Harleys (Tourer & Softail); sold my Nightrain last year and realized how much I missed a Solo rider bike.
