The Ducati Diavel isn’t what most people would describe as attractive but it rockets off into the distance and handles smartly. too. Ducati decided to add some shiny bits to the model to increase its classic appeal.
Most noticeable are the chromed tank panels which contrast sharply with the gloss black frame of the bike. The Diavel Cromo benefits from a stylish ribbed seat, black paint, chromed trim around the headlight housing and redesigned badges.
