Real reason is because NEON camo and Ducati do NOT go together.

basically to summarize the 5 reasons -> insufficient funds

You should do a new video titled, "Five reasons my videos are based on five reasons"

5 reasons...? Price, Price, Price, Price and dealer location...?? That's only two.

Pragmatism has no place in Italian Motorcycle ownership. It is a decision of the heart, not the head.

You can’t have a champagne taste on a beer budget!!!

Yo, Cycle ! i hear that France makes the best cheese in the world for all that wine you produce on your channel.

Ducati XDiavel is my dream Motorcycle Cruiser, crazy torque, great power, cool model, easy to control & fast. Perfect Combination👌👍

I have a 2014 monster 1200, never been to the shop. Totally dependable

So the bike was so amazing, he got rid of it and is thinking of getting another when he has got a better job that will pay more! Did I miss something?

I thought you sold it because you were running out of content ideas.

Ducati's are trophy wives. They look gorgeous, they ride amazingly. But it will drain your account like nothing else.

I understand you very well buddy. I bought the Xdiavel S in march, a month later a car hit me. The motorcycle cost 25.000 dollars in Switzerland to repair it would have been 17.000!!. The accident was a 30km/h and the only visible damage was a scratch in the tank, BUT when it felt the chassis got bended because the impact. The insurance company from the guy decided to give me back the totality of the money (because it was not my fault). Now I bought a new one and I'm constantly afraid of scratching the damn tank. I know you might be thinking "come on Swiss guy you can afford it" well no, I'm a Argentinean worker who went for his dream.

CC I bought an XDiavelS after watching your videos about the bike. Most fun and adrenaline I’ve had in 48 years of riding. Yes it’s expensive but you get what you pay for. Bought an extended warranty and with 18k miles so far no issues that cost $. I get more compliments on the XDS than all my other bikes combined. And I’m not rich just fell in love with the rush it provides. IMHO you shouldn’t have sold it just took extra care of it. Thanks for turning me on to it👍😀

I still have my 2017 XDiavel S. And enjoy it every time I ride it. There is nothing comes close to it. All the expenses you mentioned comes with best bikes and cars. That’s the reality!!!

Main reason would’ve , you can’t ride a Ducati with that lame outfit

From Cleveland here* I love watching your videos when your riding in the city!!

What I luv about Cyclecruza he works with what he has ..and does very well !! Very informative videos !!

This video could be compressed into 1 reason: "I'm scared." LMAO

If you don't love a bike enough to let your desire rule over your fear of the responsibility of owning it, then the bike is not for you. Hopefully that Ducati will go to someone else who truly loves it :)

Hey cyclecruza, yesterday i just got my 1st motorcycle, a 09 yamaha zuma! Love the vids

I'm picking up my new FXDR on Tuesday..and it has the same 240 Tire...Harley has a wheel & Tire insurance plan, so if you pick up a nail or damage the rims, it's only a $50 deductible and they replace the whole tire.

From your South Florida followers, Merry Christmas....bro

Enjoyed the video, I like your new jacket.

Dude that cut to you smashing the throttle on the Ducati for the first time had me in stitches.

Do enjoy every vid you bring out . mate love that your vids not slowed down or left RU-vid . Enjoyed the bug out van series and all the new ones on this Chanel are good shame you live over the pond love to of catches up for a beer and a good chat Mat uk aged 43

I thought I was the only one who still rode in the winter😂👌 keep riding man!

You didn't mention camo pants at the end. Idk if im happy or disappointed 😞. Good job cruza way to break the habit brotha!

Thx for the vid bro, it explained a lot of the issues and helped me in deciding not getting the bike 👍

"Cleveland - real and raw." Translation: sh*thole.

HAHA I knew it...You are too cheap for Euro bikes dude.

Yo I still love my xd but am going to test the new diavel 1260. Would love to see you do a vid on it.

Brother, I always Like Ur vids b4 even watchin em, coz ah Knows they gonna be GoooooD - Much Love, Malaysia !! 🙏

Wow, I thought our road surfaces were bad here in England but some of those roads surfaces you were riding on looked dangerously bad. That Duke is a beauty but you need deep pockets to keep it showroom fresh. That's kind of ok if you only have one bike but you look like you have a stable of bikes to maintain so I get where your at on that issue. Great videos.

It seems like euro bikes are much better if you use them as a weekend warrior. I ride my bikes in rain, leave it outside, and sometimes forget to put the cover over it. With a euro bike, I’d be too concerned about keeping in pristine.

What grade of octane did you use? We mainly have 87,89, and 93 in my town...I heard I should use 91. What did you use and did you experiment? What worked best for you?

This video was super informative! Thanks cruza i straight up told my sales guy hell no to ducati for maintenance and expensive parts alone. Great bikes but mega pricey

C.C hope to see you back on a Ducati again

@CycleCruza. Hey Cruza i would love to see you do a review on a yamaha vmax, i have a 2012 vrod muscle and LOVE it but also want a vmax. Ive had sport bikes my whole life decided to change it up.

CC I have always wondered man.. what do u carry in that backpack when u ride?

I love your vids❤❤❤❤

Jarret Campisi* just got a new one. Both the black and the white look really good.

Maybe it's time for something different Rick! How about you load one of the bikes in the bug out van and explore an area other than the home turf ? Mini adventures. Not only would it be fun times, but would get you to 500K subs a little faster. : )

can you share the link of the page where you are looking the price of the tank please

I somewhat understand. I bought a pre-owned Triumph Rocket III Roadster in 2014. It only had 7100 miles on it. I absolutely LOVED it. It was a 8ft long, 800lb handful in the corners. But straight line accelerating or feeling like King Shit while cruising it had no equal. At 15,000 miles the dealership informed me the steering bearings needed service as well as needing new fork seals and bushings. Over $600 and it would need a similar service in another 15,000 miles(A design weakness that influenced Honda in switching to a Hossack type suspension on the 2018 Wing). After riding over 210,000 miles on BMWs with either Tele-lever or Duo-lever(Hossack) front suspensions never requiring "steering bearings", "fork seals" or repairs of any sort I sadly parted company with my otherwise BRILLIANT Triumph motorcycle.

I’m thinking of getting a fender eliminator kit. I own a Brutale 800 Dragster similar fender.

Thanks for being honest about your experiences good and bad CycleCruza, Ducat's are great bikes and my dealer has given me the best customer service of any brand cars included. At least you had the guts to buy one and see what the brand is about.......most guys just talk without any prior experience. Keep on enjoying the biking life brother!

Hey CycleCruza, long term fan here, I would love some opinions on a new bike. My Ducati Monster 821 is too expensive and I want something cheaper. What are some great options for CHEAP, Japanese, middleweight, sportbikes? I've looked all over and can't seem to figure out what I want to replace this bike with. I Love it so much, but my wallet hates it. What would you reccomend? Thanks in advance! Maybe a video idea for you, for people stuck between the 650 class and the 800/900 class?

I've had one belt drive motorcycle, I really didn't like it , I kept getting noises and I never sure if it was tensioned correctly, was always concerned about damage and it would be a nightmare to change due to having to remove the swingarm. Chains are great, but after being spoiled with BMW shaft drives, there's a lot to be said for shaft drives, particularly on long rides where there is no adjusting, lubing etc. needed on the road.

Also why you giving your viewers the bird at 10:39 lmaooo

You ever have a chain break? I have and that can really cause some damage not just to your bike but your legs too. I own an xdiavel s with 4k miles, I haven't broken the belt and although i'm sure it would/could cause damage to my foot I don't think it would like a chain. I guess its all just betting on failure probability.

I do agree with everything that you said, in the future if you get another Ducati Diavel try the Diavel 1260 S, it is chained not belt and you might feel better on the sportier position ;)

Imagine the drivers beside and behind him, watching him swinging his arms randomly at a stop light. Lel.

Hey man, have you seen the new 2019 mv Augusta 1000cc naked bike?

State 8 and thrill point I think it’s called (old Rick roush )won’t touch ducati?? Or krol cycle ?

keep up the good work

What do you think about the new Ducati Diavel 2019 that is chain driven and with mid pegs?

I definitely love the looks of that bike. Amazing bike.

CycleCruza man I'm in Columbus. When are you gonna come down here for a group ride??

Some real valid reasons, thank you

Cruza, do you ever get weird looks from the people in the cars next to you when you are talking to us, using your hands and all? I bet you do - ha ha - love your videos though!!!

King of the top 5 vids lol

How many tanks do you go through?

I have the same fears that you had but if you really liked the bike that just isn’t enough reason to sell it... I just decided to get good insurance. If you have a clean insurance record it’s not so expensive and you can enjoy the bike stress free.

Cruza, you worry me driving thru intersections with your hands off the bars.

You should watch shadtree surgeons videos on his rocket 3.

how many times can you make the same video?

$3000 USD for just a tank? And here I thought replacing all the plastics, mirror, clutch pedal, and engine casing on the left side of my CBR500R for $1200 CAD was pricey.

Hey, CC is this a sick deal? 2015 Honda Interceptor dlx. (I commute long distances to work) I found a dealer in Ohio selling one for 4990 and it'll cost me 750 to ship to me.

Diavel gas tank on eBay - $76.99. Cover - 120-170 - pick a color. What is exactly the problem?

So, what cruza is saying in waaaaay too many words, is that its too expensive to maintain?

Was interested in this video. The diavel or bmw k1600b will be my next bike. I have a 2018 yamaha bolt r spec right now. This was interesting to watch thanks

A fanboy like me changed my mind about dreaming to own one after watching this. Ride safe CC🤘🏼

I'm pretty certain you had all the people at that red light confused with all those (talking) hand signals

I luv moto guzzi too but not enough dealers for me to take a chance on them.

I got a Guzzi. Same tale. $$$ . But I'm keepin it. Been reliable so far. Would like to try a Ducati for sure. Sorry you had to let it go.

yes u can go to another cruiser check out the new triumph rocket

It’s not for everyone. My rear tire alone is 450...but I don’t mind. Motorcycle parts typically tend to cost more, no matter what manufacturer.

I’m thinking about picking up a Ducati but am stuck undecided

Good points

Great vid

Nice videoooooo. U are so funnnnnny bro!!!😂😂😂😂

That's why I ride a Harley Davidson dealer network is 2nd to none

Ducati Hypermotard 950 or Aprilia Dorsoduro 900 as my 3rd bike. Still thinking about it.

CC: if you ever want to "bug out" to Sidney Ohio, and ride a Triumph Rocket 3 (2300cc), hmu.

It is always being so expensive to maintain when it comes to ducati. Aftermarket parts helps but not that much.

i had sports bikes for years, but last Aug i bought my first Ducati, Monster 821 Stealth, couldn't be happier, awesome bike!! maybe look at the Monster next :P re maintenance, i have full warranty, ill just pay the dealer $350 or so once a year to do it, i dont mind. be safe man, cheers

In the latest coverage of AimEXPO, the Asphalt and Rubber publication received FAR MORE traffic over the Ducati Diavel than most other bikes covered in the event, according to the owner/author of A&R. So evidently it's getting more attention in this respect than you are saying in these videos. The updated 2019 Diavel (non-x model) gets the same 1262 engine, DVVT, and has chain-drive. Mid-controls are different than forward-controls however.

If you think that is expensive try living in Indonesia... As an expat in Bali, buying the XDiavel S cost around 70 grands to start with (subject to luxury tax), think about all that bills multiplied 3-3.5 times, now THAT's crazy. Anyway nice vid man, informative and straight to the point - Keep the good content coming.

If you lives in Europes areas prices more normals. KTM/Husqvarnas bikes parts are regulars prices. They just onlys makes so many bikes and not as bigs operations so parts are highers.

Could we please get a video of him getting robbed?

The price ya pay for luxury....thennn back to reality. Lol

Like the look of Diavel it reminds me of my MT-07 but more beefier. Reliability the European bikes don't deliver on like the Japanese machines do.

Do you just want basic transportation on a Honda or every ride a exciting journey on your exclusive Ducati.

Every three or four months I watch one of your videos...only then do I remember why I don’t regularly watch your videos. The gas tank on a $25,000 Ducati is expensive....you don’t say. When you bought the bike you imagined the gas tank was inexpensive?

Hey Cyclecruza! I'll buy a new 2018 CBR 250R. Here in Costa Rica we don't have the CBR 300R. Do you still recommend it? Basically is the same 2011 model.

5 reasons I sold my Ducati xDiavel S....becoz 5 things might happen and possibly cost me money. Note:none of these things actually happened....but they might🙄 Aka 5 of the dumbest reasons I sold my Ducati...

Cost to buy and maintain/repair is the reason they may not be so popular. More so the cost to maintain it. Parts availability and time to be shipped etc.

You should look into the 2019 Ducati Hypermotard 950. Perfect bike for someone who likes supermotos such as yourself. I'm surprised you never got the 2018 939. Unless you talked about it in another video, I'm not sure.
