Ducati Diavel gets more Öhlins treatment

It's not exactly short on handling, but these new forks will give it a sharper edge

Tweet
Posted: 9 January 2012
by Ben Cope

Here's a look at some tasty black Öhlins forks for the Ducati Diavel.

This is what Öhlins have to say about them:

We've developed a set of performance forks for the awesome Ducati Diavel to give increased handling capabilities to this already unique ‘muscle bike’.

The FGRT 301 ‘Road and Track’ forks have been especially designed with black outer tubes and gold fork sliders to retain the mean and moody look of this 160bhp monster machine, something that reflects the front suspension on the Ducati MotoGP machines.

Featuring 48mm forks containing Öhlins NIX 30mm cartridge technology, the new forks offer improved road manners and high performance capabilities for when the pace increases. With adjustment of compression and rebound split between the two fork legs, the new forks offer unrivalled control and feel whatever the conditions.

The forks follow the successful introduction of the Ohlins rear shock for the Diavel and it is expected many customers will combine the two suspension systems for the ultimate in comfort and handling for their machine.

Öhlins has a fantastic relationship with Ducati with models such as the Multistrada 1200S and the eagerly awaited 1199S Panigale utilising electronically adjusting Öhlins suspension systems.

The Öhlins FGRT 301 Road and Track forks are available now and are priced at £2597.90 + VAT.

I am tempted by the bike and wonder if the next upgrade will include some suspension upgrades....
