Bikes are among the most comfortable rides, especially when you’re on a busy road. They can help you easily navigate through traffic without getting stuck, and that too, with the wind in your hair and a lot of style by your side! For bikers, these machines are of much more interest than just escaping traffic jams. And when it comes to high-end models like Harleys and Ducatis, well, those babies are a league apart.
Now, if you’ve never heard of a Ducati, you’re definitely from some other century. Ducati is one of the most popular bike manufacturing companies of all time. In July 2012, the brand was acquired by Lamborghini, and currently, it's a part of the Volkswagen Group.
Now that we've got your pulse racing, we've got an awesome model by Ducati that's sure to leave you speechless. Known as the Ducati Diavel 1260 Lamborghini, this is a classic beauty that you won't be able to take your eyes off of. Quite similar to the Lamborghini Sián, this bike resembles the car in several aspects, right from designing to the body's finish.

A quick look at the Ducati Diavel 1260 Lamborghini
The Diavel 1260 Lamborghini, that's been manufactured by a collaboration between the two brands, will be selling only 630 units worldwide. Completely inspired by the Lamborghini Sián FKP37, one of the most powerful cars of all time, the Diavel bikes will be featuring 63 decals to celebrate its partner Lamborghini’s 63 years in the automobile industry.
The two-wheeler derives its Gea Green color from the Sián model with strong aluminum wheels finished in gold. Carbon fiber parts have been used in most of its body, starting from radiator covers to the exhaust covers, air intakes, headlights, and mudguards. Enhancing the body with carbon fiber parts has helped make the bike lighter, with an overall weight of 485 pounds.
Powered by a strong 1262cc engine similar to that of the Testastretta Ducati 90 degree V-twin, the motorbike delivers high performance of 162hp at 9500rpm along with a 129Nm of torque. The bike also has a six-axis electronic rider aid by IMU that showcases three modes, namely Urban, Sport, and Touring. The modes help in saving power at different levels. The Urban mode cuts 100hp power while the Touring and Sport modes consume full power. The advanced motorbike also has a bi-directional shifter along with a cornering ABS standard.
