Ducati Diavel 1260 vs Suzuki Hayabusa Comparison

The Diavel 1260 S with its updated engine, new chassis and electronics make for a sporty package with solid performance that will have you grinning from ear to ear every time you whack open the throttle. The relaxed ergonomics of a cruiser, enough firepower to scare you silly, and the riding dynamics of a sportbike. That level of versatility is what makes the new Ducati Diavel 1260 very, very appealing.

Priced at ₹ 16.40 lakh (Ex-showroom), the Suzuki Hayabusa offers superb value. It's got crackling performance, a sophisticated electronics suite, which makes it safe and easy to enjoy. The only downside is that the huge 1,340 cc engine generates a lot of heat on a hot day, which can be quite bothersome, and despite the slip-and-assist clutch, the lever feels heavy and not ideal, if you're stuck in bumper to bumper traffic.
