Drop dead gorgeous bike. For those who say it's fugly, remember to many the Monster's beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

If I didn't have the MTS fever I'd strongly consider buying one.

well, this is a pretty specific forum dedicated to a single model of moto so the fact that the new abomination that is the Diavel isn't getting its "due" respect here seems to be calling for a forum based solely on the Diavel for those that love it to come together and figure out why.

I'm sorry, what was I thinking for being out of line and not posting about its uglyduckyness

kid told me the other day my bike looked like a lesbian's scooter   maybe you could lighten up a bit and just accept the fact that not everyone is gonna like the same stuff you do captain. the point of this thread was to express opinions on the bike in question.  i would think it is pretty implicit that a motorcycle that departs greatly from the general aesthetic of a manufacturer may come under some unfavorable scrutiny on a forum dedicated to a single model.  but, defend away . . . i'm havin fun

Well at least we've transitioned away from calling the Diavel a fat chick.

I'll start again.......that AINT NO AMG.  I expected much more.  If I had a million to blow I'd do it but not on the so-called AMG version.  I'll stick to my dream CLS 55 AMG and the G AMG for the wifey.

I guess I prefer it to the normal Diavel.....

[Hellraising-vtec]

like the normal carbon better. I really dont like does wheels

Wait, you actually expected this to be more than a cheezy cash-in on brand appeal?

yes I do, especially if they sell them for what I'm thinking will be some stupid $30k price.  I should lower my expectations

I read some of the adds.

When they tout that the cam timing is REALLY what they say it is, is notable.

None of the Itailian tuning houses wanted to jump on this, I'm guessing.  AMG is about perfomance and function, not bolt on bling and paint.  They can take a good machine and make a much better, or at least frightenly more powerful.  Weird.  Not my cup of tea / whiskey.
