Ducati XDiavel V4 Black Edition
At its heart, the V4 Granturismo ensures exhilarating performance and smooth delivery with its 168 hp, boosting the riding pleasure without sacrificing on comfort.
1158 cc V4 Granturismo engine
The Granturismo is the V4 engine derived from the Desmosedici Stradale. Electrifying performance is guaranteed with 168 hp and 12.8 kgm of torque. Powerful and responsive at all speeds, it offers an exceptionally smooth experience right from low rpm.
Versatile and easy to ride, it’s as comfortable on the highway as it is fun through the twists and turns.
As on the MotoGP prototypes, the crankshaft is counter-rotating, meaning that it rotates in the opposite direction to the wheels, to compensate for the gyroscopic effect and ensure handling and agility through the changes of direction, as well as reducing the tendency to wheelie during acceleration and braking.
Forward footpegs and Sport Cruiser ergonomics
The XDiavel V4's riding position is relaxed, characterized by wide handlebars, forward footrests and a very comfortable spoon-shaped seat. The ergonomic triangle has been improved on the new generation XDiavel, offering the rider greater comfort. For those who wish to adopt a sportier riding position and achieve greater lean angle, the footrests can be moved to a central position thanks to an optional kit.
XDiavel V4's fully adjustable suspension is equipped with 50 mm diameter upside-down forks (with compression and preload adjustment on the left stem and rebound on the right stem) and in a shock absorber with separate reservoir. Wheel travel is 120 mm at the front and 145 mm at the rear, increasing travel by 35 mm compared to XDiavel 1260, with positive effects on rider and passenger comfort.
The single-sided aluminum swingarm shows off the rear wheel, which fits the massive 240/45 Pirelli Diablo Rosso III tyre. The five-spoke wheels are star-shaped to reinforces the reference to American muscle cars.
XDiavel V4 ensures a relaxed and comfortable riding position. 770 mm from the ground, the spoon-shaped seat typical of a cruiser is made more comfortable with an extra 54 mm of foam with respect to previous generation. Passenger comfort is boosted with a seat that is 30% wider, 50% roomier lengthways, and with foam that is 25 mm thicker at the sides. The rear hand grip, provided with the bike, is easily mounted on the tail when you want to offer the passerby more comfort for longer trips.
Full LED lighting system
The front DRL with double C design has the typical Ducati naked shape and narrows towards the top, highlighting the sleek appearance of the front end and wrapping itself around a single bifunctional module that has a more aggressive and technical look, while also showing off the heat sink as a design element.
The turn signals are integrated and create a blade of light that makes for a smooth, homogeneous look.
The 6.9" colour TFT display with 8:3 aspect ratio is well integrated with the forged body of the handlebar and boasts optical bonding technology for greater visibility in all lighting conditions. The Road info mode has been specifically redesigned to reflect unique cruiser style.
Two new colour schemes, exclusive to XDiavel V4
The new Burning Red and Black Lava colour schemes are developed by Centro Stile Ducati exclusively for XDiavel V4 and designed to emphasise its volumes and sculpted lines.
The Twin Pulse firing order, together with the dedicated exhaust system developed with great attention to "sound quality," unmistakably characterize the XDiavel V4 Granturismo's timbre. The extended rear-cylinder deactivation system, which allows the engine to operate as a twin-cylinder or as a four-cylinder with an imperceptible transition due to its gradualness, generates a change in the tone of the exhaust noise as it switches from one mode to the other. A deeper sound, with lower frequencies, characterizes the V4 Granturismo when only the two front cylinders are active, while when all four cylinders are operating the frequencies become higher.
