I'm diggin the Diavel, but I'd go for the Streetfighter before the Diavel. Not quite as comfy, but they go/turn/look pretty good.

Alright. Who wants to tell Freddy that is Husqy is a cruiser? Poor guy is gonna be broken hearted.

Then get a Honda......

Really though, The diavel is a fine machine, but c'mon, ya gotta admit, it is a little bit ugly...

But again, I have been there, done that with the Italian thing. I even had a 1990 Ducati 900ss a few years back with a Paso front end and Monster Engine. That along with the Brutale has convinced me that while Italians can build some amazing machines... well you know that saying "regardless of how hot she is, there is a guy somewhere that is sick of putting up with her shit." Same thing kinda thing.

Ducati not as much as the MV - The Italians are known for pushing the absolute limits of performance for a piece of hardware without a huge consideration for reliability. With that comes the hefty price tag on maintenance. Also dont forget insurance will be higher generally.

But ultimately my opinions are just that. Opinions. Make your own. Go swing your leg over one and take a test ride.

then buy a Honda.

I just noticed one of these on the 95 freeway the other day and was surprised that I liked the look of it. I'm not into cruisers at all, but I kinda dig the M109, and kinda liked the Diavel as soon as I saw it as well
