This Diavel was wearing the same colors as my S2R.  I, for one, do not like.  What do you guys think?

It's marginally less unattractive than a regualr Diavel, but it's still not my cup of tea.
I don't care how well it rides, it's still a big goofy cruiser.
Reminds me of the Porsche Panamera...

You know what, I LOVE the back of it, and I love that huge wheel. It's the over-proportioned front I waffle on, it's just so bulky up front. I'd own one though, for sure, if I had the $$$ for another bike or ten... lol

Ya, I could see that working much better for this type of bike.

Technically, so does this - the new DB11. 



Oh and it has a supercharger.  Output jumps to 191 hp.

This paint job looks bad IMO. The all carbon black or carbon red are the only ones that look OK.

I agree that's it's uh, different looking. Goofy? Nah. Spanks all monsters and streetfighters in pure muscle and torque. Handles as well or better (due to the DTC and ABS) then both as well.

Often wrong. Never in doubt.

How the heck would "electronics" (anti-wheelspin, anti-skid) make it handle (turn in,trail brake,transition side to side) better?

Because you can ride it to the edge and beyond. The DTC hides lots of mistakes and road surface issues. There are no side to side transition issues, it feels much smaller then it looks.
