2018 Ducati XDiavel Special Thiverval by Fred Krugger Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Ducati's naked motorcycle platform, the 2018 Ducati XDiavel Special Thiverval by Fred Krugger utilizes a 1262 cc (77 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 152 HP (110.9 kW) at 9,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 126 Nm (92.9 lb-ft) at 5,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 120.4 HP per liter and a 4,500 rpm working window between peak torque (5,000 rpm) and peak power (9,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.

Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,615 mm (63.6 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 17-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
