        It is a very unique motorcycle that turns every ride into a remarkable moment. It is capable of handling Indian roads and traffic, but because the engine heats up considerably, it is best driven on open roads.

        It is undoubtedly one of the few motorbikes that provides a level of power and force even when it is idle.

        The electronics package and DVT engine bring the Diavel bang up to date; in terms of specs and performance, there simply isn't any bike that can compete.
