Hideously gruesome I can agree with, POS not so sure but I am kind of relieved that it is hideous enough that I don't need one.

The Buell? Maybe not so much. Lots of people liked them. But boy, with the BMW, you hit the nail right on the head. I've always maintained that was a super ugly bike. Followed closely by a Suzuki B-King.   Grin

 After riding a Beemer like that for a bit I came to like its looks- it is a fun bike and corners remarkably well.
 The Diavel may not be to your liking style wise, butt it is a very capable machine and definatly NOT a POS!

I had a XB9r.  Never thought it a good looking bike.  It was an ugly duckling from the day a bought it.  Somehow it fit my mindset at the time perfectly, twitchy little beast that it was.  It was also the least reliable vehicle I have ever owned.  I would buy the bastard offspring of a Fiat 850 Spyder and a MG before I ever owned a Buell again.

I'm guessing you don't like it and want some people to agree with you given your two options of 'Yes' -or- 'Yes'.  I'm guessing you think it's a good thing then that the Diavel isn't the ONLY bike Ducati makes.

Yay intarwebz!
