On the car scene, names like Lamborghini, Ferrari and Maserati have become proud representations of the Italian people's spirit.
Meanwhile in the motorcycle arena, honor lies on the shoulders of Ducati , Aprilia and MV Agusta.
But whether the vehicle manufacturer has two or four wheels under one make, this is a dream vehicle. So, what happens when two Italian icons come together? We get the highest expression of desire.
During the fourth episode of the World Première series which aired on 25 November 2020, Ducati unveiled the Diavel 1260 Lamborghini, a special edition motorbike inspired by the very new and very limited Lamborghini Sià n FKP 37 hybrid supercar.

Following in the footsteps of the Lamborghini Sian FKP 37 which produced only 63 units worldwide, Ducati also made the Diavel 12660 Lamborghini in a limited number of 630 units.
Designers Ducati and Lamborghini worked together to shape the silhouette of the Lamborghini Diavel and provide some of the styling borrowed from the FKP, including the Verde Gea colorway with contrasting Electrum Gold accents.

The Y-shaped FKP headlights and hexagonal exhaust tip are carried on the Diavel in a y-shaped saddle and hexagonal mufflers.
The number 63 adorns the semi-fairing to pay homage to the year Automobili Lamborghini SpA '1963 was founded.
