It's called "Diavel" and comes in a new dream Ducati EICMA
Preceded by rumors, photos and stolen a lot of waiting, we received word is final. EICMA International Motorcycle Exhibition in Milan, at the Rho-02-07 November, marks the first official public appearance of the new Ducati.
Livery and specifications are defined and the Ducati is ready to make his dream a reality. Pending the official launch of the Ducati will also be anticipating the name of this great news, that inspired the term dialect of Bologna, will be called "Diavel", or "devil."
A name that has its own special history that stems from an incident during the development of the bike.
In fact, when the first prototype, in which all the technical staff around the creation of the new dialect of "Made in Ducati" sentence of Bologna said the original lines of the bike and win, "ignurant comm 'to Diavel!" What is carrying a statement in Italian, it sounds "as they are as bad as the devil."
From that moment, "Diavel" became the name of "inside" the bike, to replace the internal project code. The decision to maintain production, as you might imagine, a logical consequence.
Like in Genesis, even if we talk for almost 20 years, characterized another icon of Ducati, monster, whose name was inspired by the now famous statement, also in the dialect of Bologna, "is only the" monster n ! "O" is a monster. "
As for Monster, then Diavel name becomes an expression of this unique, passionate, increasingly characterized by high technology and a unique design feature of every Ducati motorcycle production.
So it is also easy to see that this new bike, and even linked to Ducati tradition, to mark an important new chapter in the aesthetics and performance.
The new Ducati Diavel be accurate in every detail, carved into every muscle, comfortable and innovative. As in any real Ducati, the performance will have a major role. The behavior of the torque, power and dynamics will be a new benchmark, thanks to the Testastretta engine 11 ° - the same as the Multistrada 1200 - and weighs only 207 kg dry, which promises a quick Superbike and speed and agility to change direction.
A relaxed driving position, the suspension comfort and security guaranteed by the ABS, traction control and standard mode constituency that will satisfy even the riders who like to drive in peace, enjoy the streetscape and all the features of this new dream Ducati.
2011 Ducati Diavel Features and benefits of carbon
Concept
The project was born when Diavel Ducati designers have used their wish list of bicycle "basic instincts" to an empty canvas. With a "what if?" Additions to create a dream bike, described the inspiring forms, which were weaker and the bike. "The challenge of building a muscular figure of a competitive force to be filled with pure determination and a delicate touch, and the result is a front surface that looks like an athlete's power to the starting line, "said the Ducati design team is responsible for the project." With the front wheel held near Diavel body and the use of the short tail of a sport bike, we were able to combine design with a muscular frame that was the case. "
Design
Diavel tuning is the ability, dominance, and confidence in the superiority of the border. Adding side-mounted radiators broad muscle "behind", which is then narrowed down the engine and all the belly-fairing with oil cooler, the athlete was formed. A massive rear tire, § 240 was a perfect example of how designers use Diavel uncompromising attitude in applying their wish list of features. Width of a mere rubber communicates a lot of power and style, the R & D team has promised to find a way to do that deal - even though they knew that the image would have given the seismic shock through the industry. Ducati Diavel is true, was born the passion for motorcycling and designed to produce a performance Ducati true in every respect.
Carbon
Carbon Diavel offers the true nature of the concept Diavel where performance combined with style to celebrate the Italian engineering company at its best. Composite lightweight milled aluminum components merge the two worlds of sport and style with features that are both visually beautiful and functional high performance.
Riding Clothing
The Diavel incorporates the latest innovative technologies Ducati, including the newly introduced electronic modes of riding. Select the matching left - even when riding - the choice of three presets are programmed to immediately change the Diavel character. The three modes are activated by the combination of first-class technologies such as ride-by-wire (LBR) and the Ducati Traction Control (DTC). Like riding in the streets of the city may require more attention to the environment butterfly input mode change immediately Diavel urban riding to give a clear and safe driving. Output power is reduced to 100 hp, and DTC is further enhanced at 5 to provide a higher intervention in the system of the most chaotic stop-start traffic. Touring the riding mode is programmed to produce 162hp, but with a sleeker, more user-friendly power delivery.
The rear wheel is improved by increasing the DTC system response at level 4, designed specifically for a perfect trip enjoyable and relaxing for long distances and ensures maximum comfort for the driver and passenger. Sport mode gives rider riding with a tour Diavel adrenaline powered 162hp and allows the pilot to have full-throttle response for maximum acceleration. Ensure the full 11 ° Testastretta sport mode experience, also lowers the DTC system response at 3 for riders who prefer their performance a little closer to the limit of traction.
Engine
Testastretta 11 °
The heart is the Ducati Testastretta Diavel 11 ° - direct development of racing engines in the world amazingly powerful Ducati Corse pace. Ducati Testastretta 11 ° harnesses the power of the engine and makes great Superbike soft and flexible, a big step forward in the balance of high performance and driving pleasure. For an engine with a brutal power on tap when needed and ease of use without problems for a smooth ride and comfortable, Ducati has reviewed the configuration of the cam timing with emphasis on angle valve overlap. The angle of overlap is defined as the interval of crankshaft rotation, measured in degrees, during which both intake and exhaust are open at once. This overlap occurs between the end of the exhaust stroke and the beginning of the intake stroke.
High efficiency motors, which are subject to the commitment of mild to deliver extreme power, the use of high values of this parameter to take advantage of the pressure waves to improve engine performance by maximizing the volumetric efficiency. The Testastretta engine 11 °, this angle was reduced by 41 °, which is used in the engine that drives the Testastretta Evoluzione 1198, at 11 ยบ. As a result, the entry is to charge less sweet endangered by the exhaust coming out, resulting in a smoother combustion, in addition to fuel economy and exhaust emissions.
Ride-by-Wire
Ride-by-Wire (RBW) of the system is an electronic interface between the handle and motor Diavel, which constitutes an ideal power response as a function of the selected horses. The accelerator has no throttle cable connected directly to the throttle body butterfly, but provides a signal to a control unit, which in turn operates the electronic throttle opening. The system uses three different assignments RBW to regulate power output: 162hp 162hp with sports-type delivery with delivery right to travel with progressive delivering 100 hp progressive city
15 000 kilometers between the main services
Continued investment in quality design, advanced materials and engineering techniques have allowed the distance between the intervals of higher (see valve clearance) for use at a very competitive 15,000 miles. This was achieved with the introduction of new materials for valve seat, a better combustion efficiency and temperature control designed in the 11 ° Testastretta engine.
Twin radiators side
The solution technique used to keep the line clean Diavel was put in two very powerful side radiators on both sides of the wheel. These well-channeled units under the fuel tank, the use aerodynamics to help pull the air flow through the radiators and electric fan assisted high-flow, if necessary. Design combines form and function to improve the shape of the muscle bike.
Exhaust
The large 58mm (2.28in) section of the exhaust manifold to bring the 2-1-2 system through enhancing power of the same length as Diavel enable the delivery of effective power. The engine management system lambda for each header passes, providing for clear sources through a larger air filter, while the elegant gun, vertically stacked silencers that catalytic converters to provide compliance with Euro 3, electronically controlled valve middle section optimizes the pressure throughout the rev range.
Slipper clutch
The transmission has a clutch in oil bath with "shoes" function and super-light feel at the lever. The design uses a self-servo mechanism that pushes progressive the plates together when the drive from the engine, thereby reducing the rate of clutch spring. The result is a clutch much lighter on the handlebar, which is ideal for stop-start traffic or on long journeys. When the driving force used (deficit), the same mechanism reduces the pressure on the clutch plates so they can deliver a race like "shoes" of action, which reduces the destabilizing rear wheel aggressive downshifting and provides a much smoother feeling when you close the throttle or downshifting in normal conditions.
Power and torque
With 162hp and colossal £ 94 feet (127.5Nm) of torque, the Diavel Testastretta engine 11 has to do with performance Ducati desmodromic authentic. Consumer exhaust ports revised and combined with the radical adjustment of cam timing allows Ducati to achieve a torque curve at low speed fantastic, remains strong across a wide rev range. The increase in the lower level is in charge of a pair of Ducati Ride-by-Wire (RBW) to significantly improve the Diavel ridability effort, while ensuring sufficient power to mount the faucet high speed.
Chassis
Marzocchi forks, fork sliders, super-low friction
The Diavel used with 50mm Marzocchi fork black sleeves finished with super low friction diamond-like carbon (DLC). These forks are fully adjustable in spring preload damping compression and rebound. The forks are trapped by a stem cutting bar - cast aluminum and forged bottom at the top - with a rubber mounted stud alloy grinding bars. With an inclination of 28 °, the track 130 mm (5.12in) and a displacement of 24 mm (0.945in), the set-up provides sure-footed and agile front-end for handling and incredible twist of 70 ° for a total maximum maneuverability.
Marchesini wheels rims Marchesini nine nine
The Custom Shop Diavel finished carbon, lightweight forged wheels turned and milled by Marchesini, not only score a total weight gain impressive 5.5 pounds (2.5 kilograms), but also look spectacular. These complexes nine wheels highlight the delicate natural aluminum machining against a black finish.
Fuel tank and air intake
Diavel is the 17L fuel tank (4.5 U.S. gal) is an integral part of the overall style of the bike. His large, long scan lines down the entire projector in the back seat and subframe to create a uniform profile. As the focal point of the tank is the display panel, high-resolution skin steel tank and panels shaped knee well add a strong sense of Diavel and a high-tech composite see Diavel Carbon. On either side of the front of the tank is massive air inlets formed in the aluminum to feed large engine air filter box.
One-armed
Aluminum long, gray, single-arm offers a great "feel" in the back with a wheelbase of 1590mm (62.6in) and a position that offers tilt angles up to 41 °.
Braking System
The front brakes use Brembo monoblock calipers Diavel incredibly powerful offer exceptional performance driven by new master cylinder alloy tanks full as a sporting bleached peaks. The twin radially mounted 4 piston disc grip 320, while a single 265 mm rear disc is squeezed by a twin-piston caliper, also by Brembo. Carbon Diavel carriers using specially milled aluminum disc with machined aluminum niche natural color all cuts weight gain in contrast with the black finish around the center of the airline. Ducati typical of these high-end components offer exceptional levels of braking and set a new benchmark in this category.
The project sets new standards for beauty, innovation and sophistication, but an excellent agility and maneuverability are encapsulated within a muscular organ that moves 162 hp. Its amazing the power can be controlled in three different rooms and an insurance Ducati Riding Safety Pack (ABS + Ducati Traction Control). Ducati has created something truly magical.
