In reply to coreyvwc. Remember the Porsche and Harley Davidson Collab?

I don’t see where’s the homage. But it looks tacky, so I guess I can feel the link between the two

In reply to Bob Krzeszkiewicz. On cars it makes a lot of sense, as wheels have gotten much larger in diameter and are often very open, making the calipers another piece of design interest.

In reply to JSinclair39. Disagree. The Huracan is every bit the looker as the Ferrari Tributo.

In reply to Larry Kahn. The Miura was a lovely car, for the '60s.

My wife saw me reading this article/viewing the pictures:
“oh, whats THAT?”
“Ducati/Lambo collab – Ducati took a bunch of design cues from Lambo’s new supercar”
“oooh it looks pretty nice actually. you’re not already thinking about getting a new motorcycle, huh?”
“no no. 1) this isn’t really something I’d actually buy, but I do appreciate the design, and 2) it’s $32k”
“oh… that’s not THAT much…”

I am VERY ok with Ducati setting this precedent.

It’s awful. IDK why Ducati would equate a Lamborghini with a Diavel and then an open face helmet on top of that… just nope. So many nopes. All of the nopes.

The looks are over the top but thats every Lambo. It better come with that helmet.

THIS IS REALLY PROPER LIMITED! NOT LIKE AN MV AGUSTA JUST SPRAY A DIFFERENT COLOR AND PUT LIMITED STICKER ON IT!

In reply to MichaelAndTheArgonauts. The Livewire is a far more advanced machine than this dubious concoction - but overpriced relative to Zeros and Energicas etc..

Really? No, no, no, no, no….
It looks plain tacky.
The gold fork (which are also available in black/gold) and the red caliper (also available in black) look like afterthoughts. I appreciate that the Lambo had red calipers… but it just distracts from the look. The Ducati rear caliper is already black, so it is not about being faithful to the Lambo.

Select the “DESIGN” tab first, then scroll down…

Sounds expensive until you realize it’s the same price as an average Harley-Davidson.

LOL. You can buy a damn Lamborghini Ducati and it’s still less than a Livewire. That’s hilariously amazing.

I could understand a Lamborghini collab on a Panigale or a Streetfighter, but a Diavel?

Cruisers and supercars don’t exactly have much in common…

There you go! The cheapest way to buy your own, brand new, Lamborghini! I wonder if the Lambo club will let a lowly motorcycle owner join. Hahaha! (Although, I have to admit I regret having missed out on the Design 90 back when they were “available”).

In reply to coreyvwc. "Tasteless, with money" is the target market for both.
