This is a collaboration between Custom bike builder Roland Sands
and Ducati, which has given way to the creation of a one-off XDiavel with the
usual RSD touches.
This means a flowing single-piece body, the addition of a 19″
front wheel, and shotgun-style exhaust are added to the already stylish XDiavel.
The RSD Ducati XDiavel is then finished off with metallic flake paint job, along
with the usual bits and bobs from the RSD catalog.
“We really wanted to pivot off all that amazing technology and
not mess it up by tearing it out,” said Roland Sands of the build.”The bike is
still very stock from a functional standpoint. The bike was a 3-month build,
with careful consideration and deliberation about the direction of the design.
Ultimately, we decided to twist the aesthetic while retaining decidedly ‘stock’
bike functionality. I’m proud to say that’s exactly what we’ve achieved,” said
Roland of the build.
“The response to our presence at Sturgis Motorcycle Rally has
been exceptionally welcoming. The passion for two wheels, twin-cylinder engines,
and beautiful roads is shared by everyone at this gathering of the motorcycle
community,” said Jason Chinnock, CEO of Ducati North America. “This custom-built
XDiavel by Roland Sands Design embodies the spirit of personalisation that makes
this Rally so special.”
