Ducati has shown another variation of its Diavel cruiser at the Motor Bike Expo 2016 called the ‘draXter’. Following the interest shown by the public in the XDiavel cruiser, this concept motorcycle takes the Diavel cruiser and mates it with selected components from Ducati’s performance-oriented side of the family.
The brain-child of Ducati Design Center’s Advanced Design department, Ducati takes a standard Diavel and interprets it from a rather more ‘sporty’ point of view, resulting in the draXter. Using parts from the Panigale, notably the suspension and brakes, Ducati says it has turned the Diavel into “a unique, breath-taking racer.”
In case you’re wondering, the ’90’ racing number on the belly fairing is to commemorate Ducati’s 90th anniversary, which happens this year. No word yet if the draXter will ever see production. Perhaps Ducati is waiting to see if the XDiavel is a sales success before proceeding.
