How Ducati and Lamborghini developed the Sian hypercar influenced cruiser bike
A limited edition, sportouring motorcycle based on the Diavel 1260 S is the Ducati Diavel 1260 Lamborghini. But unlike the usual Diavel, Lamborghini and Ducati have inherited the futuristic styling of the newest Lambo Sian FKP 37 hybrid supercar. “The Lamborghini Sian-inspired Ducati Diavel celebrates our shared values: we are both Italian, we are inherently sporty, and our design always distinguishes our creations,” said Andrea Ferraresi, Director of Ducati Centro Stile. Ducati’s newest Diavel 1260 S Lamborghini underwent a full body transformation to mimic the Sian. The radiator covers, the air intakes, the central tank cover, the silencer cover, the central tank cover and the seat cover are now made of light carbon fiber. In the meantime the front and rear mudguards, the dashboard cover and the headlight cover are all made of exposed carbon fiber. The new components suit well with the Verde Gea paint finish of the bike, the same color as the Sian hypercar of Lamborghini. Like the Sian, Diavel 1260 Lamborghini has a nice set of forged wheels – a direct copy of Sian’s magnificent rollers. The wheels are finished in Oro Electrum (Gold) paint, while the underlay and the bike frame are both sprayed in luxurious gold. “We are convinced that our design is strong and one of the most recognizable in the automotive sector,” said Mitja Borkert, Head of Design at Automobili Lamborghini. “The distinctive silhouette, clean but extremely distinct, represents the basis of our work design language. Lamborghini has a hexagonal motif and Y-shape knack, and in Ducati’s tribute bike you can find similar details. For eg, the exhaust tips are hexagonal, while the seat has Y-shaped decorations for completion of the look. Most notably, Diavel 1260 Lamborghini is released in a limited edition with the special number 63 livery. It resembles not only the founding year of Lamborghini in Sant’Agata Bolognese, but also, according to Lambo’s press release, the total production figures multiplied by 10.
