Ducati has also added a new Ducati Power Launch system with three selectable levels designed to regulate torque and traction during hard acceleration.
Ducati Diavel V4 RS: Electronics and Riding Modes
The Diavel V4 RS is equipped with Power Modes (High, Medium, Low), Ducati Traction Control, Wheelie Control and Quick Shift 2.0. These functions operate within four riding modes: Race, Sport, Touring and Wet. Race mode appears on the Diavel series for the first time and changes the TFT display to provide track-focused information.
Ducati Diavel V4 RS: Chassis and Hardware
The motorcycle uses an aluminium monocoque frame with the engine as a stressed member, combined with a single-sided aluminium swingarm. Suspension comes from fully adjustable Ohlins components, while braking is handled by Brembo Stylema calipers with 330mm discs at the front and a 265mm disc at the rear.
Ducati Diavel V4 RS rides on 17-inch forged aluminium wheels with Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tyres. Carbon fibre has been used extensively across components such as mudguards, fairings, tank covers and air ducts. A lighter battery contributes to a total weight of 220kg, which is 3kg less than the standard Diavel V4.
