Well I guess we will have some inkling of how the 2 stack up against eachother. Stock, vs Stock.
Let the games begin.

Should be interesting. If they are saying they are even at 100, most likely the Diavel will be ahead after that. Lighter is faster as the speeds increase. Of course with a Nash Flash....they would not be any where near close to being even, at 100.

I'll look at the Outcome with quite some interest, but face it, they already fake the Numbers.

They say the Vmax is 310 kg, which is true, full wet with a full Tank, and the Diavel is 210kg/207kg(Carbon Model), which is also like the Manufacturers says, but this is DRY Weight, no Coolant, no Oil, no Fuel ...

If they're even at 6.0 sec@100 mph, i'd venture the Guess the Vmax will be not be the Looser in their Tests ...

That's because the relative Lack of Power will kick in with the Duc(after all it's rated at 40 hp less) and the enormous Power of the V4 can actually accelerate the Hunk of Metal. At 100 mph, we're sporting right at 7 kRpM, so that's where the real Fun begins ...

Anything to sell Magazines!
Plunk down your cash for our rag mag & see the winner? Yeah ok.. at least whoever spends most on advertising..

Those comments to that article/'rag-mag' advertisement ALMOST stirred me up.....then i realized i almost fell victom to ignorant bullshat.

Its inevitable guys. Since the Bking has been discontinued by Suzuki, the only other logical competition to the Vmax is the Ducati.


I'm with Squeeze on this. I think that the lighter bike will be all go down low, but after "The Vmax Show" (bog and tire smoke) Max will be gone.



We will see.

blah, blah, blah, blah...... Bring your Diavel out to the logging roads.

i dont care what the mags say or what the 90 pound test rider can do, in real life id NEVER put my money on the diavel LOL
