LIGHTS ON ME
LIGHTS ON ME
Powerful. Muscular. But also agile and effective between the curves for maximum riding enjoyment.
The Diavel 1260 combines the performance of a maxi-naked with the ergonomics of a muscle cruiser. Its design reinterprets the Diavel style with a contemporary look and integrates perfectly the 159 HP Testastretta DVT 1262 engine, beating heart of this new Diavel 1260
The novelty of the Model Year 23 is characterized by the choice of asymmetrical and refined graphics that combine glossy grey and matt black as the main colors, to which are added sporty touches in yellow, including the frame, the lower part of the tail, the dedicated seat badge and some details of the bike.
BLACK AND STEEL
The Diavel 1260 S “Black and Steel” is inspired by the Diavel "Materico" concept, presented to the public in 2019 at the "Beautiful Boldness / Visionary Design" event during Milan Design Week and subsequently exhibited at the MOARD (Motorcycle Art & Design) exhibition dedicated to two-wheel design.
CHASSIS
CHASSIS AND ERGONOMICS: The riding position, the low-seat “power cruiser” ergonomics, the high handlebar, and the central footpegs, very dear to the hearts of first-hour Diavel enthusiasts, did not change. What did change was the chassis. The new Diavel boasts a new trellis frame with well exposed steel tubes, matched with an aluminum swinging arm whose size was conceived to give this bike outstanding agility in the bends, a great feel and easy riding. The rear tire, 240 mm wide by 17” across, has always been a key distinctive sign of the Diavel. Thanks to the new chassis, it ensures outstanding handling and cornering angles, but also a great level of comfort for the rider and the passenger alike, mostly thanks to the upright position it allows, not to mention the generously padded seat.
SUSPENSIONS: The new Diavel 1260 features a fully adjustable, 50-mm diameter fork on the front. In turn, the Diavel 1260 S is fitted, for the first time ever, with a fully adjustable 48-mm diameter Öhlins fork and an Öhlins shock-absorber, also fully adjustable. Öhlins suspensions ensure not only an impeccable response in terms of bike dynamic performance, but also outstanding comfort on any type of terrain; moreover, they account for a truly precious-looking bike with their characteristic gold finish.
DESIGN
A CONTEMPORARY CHARACTER: Muscular lines and an imposing front bring out the strong and restless personality of the new Diavel, featuring a long, slender rear with a 240 mm rear wheel. The S version with the distinctive golden Öhlins suspensionsis the maximum expression of the decisive and refined style of the Diavel 1260. A new sporty Diavel 1260 S, without sacrificing the style that distinguishes it.
DETAILS
CHEEKY ELEGANCE: The new Diavel is an ode to elegance and sophisticated details: carbon fibre components and a finely stitched premium quality seat complement the Diavel’s outstanding style. An aggressive character, with no compromises, as Marchesini forged rims and the Thrilling Black & Dark Stealth liveries testify. The Daytime Running Light (DRL) headlight, available on the S version, is an unmistakeable hallmark of the new Diavel.
ENGINE
THE ENGINE IS THE KING: The new Diavel is built around the Testastretta DVT 1262 engine, a beacon of power, beauty and sophistication. Its 159 hp translate to unbelievable acceleration and pick-up, while the flat and consistent torque curve since low rpm allows steady and easy to handle delivery. The Ride by Wire (RbW) control matched with three Riding Modes and three Power Modes allows to personalize engine responsiveness. A true beauty, as far as mechanics and design go, and a real game changer on the road.
