I didn't think this post would go 4 pages deep despite the polarizing looks of the Diavel. Considering I haven't driven one I can only comment on its aesthetic. In that red with white stripe and white wheels combo, it looks like it's about to transform.
Instead, what I'd love to see done to the Diavel (as a one off) is reduce the bulk up front, lose those cans, forward controls and rework the tail, getting rid of those vertical tail lights. The kind of transformation I have in mind is something like what Roland Sands did to the Yahama T-Max - maybe less "mad-max" like.
From this:
To this:
Both of these creep me right out.

I've yet to see anything come out of Roland Sands garage that didn't look like crap. I don't know what the fascination is with him.

I really like this one
but I don't get most of the rest (only counting "real" bikes here
) given the size of his reputation.

It does look a little like a surprised one-eyed bass.

The photo is weird, it makes them look thinner.
35mm forks, common on ducatis at the time.
The wheel spokes are actually much thicker..

I'm not sure which looks weaker, the front wheel or the fork.
And I wonder how they decided which US state to name that pile after...

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

it kind of looks like an iron?
No, I was pointing out the irony of a guy riding a nouveau monster complaining about the looks of the diavel and how Ducati 'went that direction.'
