The Ducati Diavel, some would say, is roughly the two-wheeled equivalent of a Lamborghini sport-ute. This version, though, looks even more sinister.
Crafted by Belgian customizer Fred Krugger, the Thiverval is based on the award-winning design of the XDiavel.
The custom ride leaves the big engine in full view, with the trellis frame hidden to accentuate the sleek lines. The tank and tail, with its integrated exhaust and single seat, meanwhile, have been completely rebuilt, and the whole thing has been decked out in gloss and matte black with chrome trim.
Borrowing its name from a race track on the outskirts of Paris, the Thiverval was presented just this past weekend at the Bikers’ Classic at the famous Spa-Francorchamps circuit, home to the Belgian Grand Prix, and goes to show that the Europeans can do heavy metal just as well as the Americans can.
