JAKARTA - What happens if high-end motorcycle manufacturers and luxury car manufacturers collaborate? For the first time, Ducati and Bentley collaborate to present a limited edition motor, Ducati Diavel for Bentley.

This special bike is only available with 500 units that symbolize the combined advantages of the two iconic brands and has been exhibited at the 'fuorisalone' event at Art Basel, Miami, which took place December 8-11.

Reporting from the Bentley page, called Ducati Dialve for Bentley based on the high-powered Divel V4 Ducati motorcycle combined with the signature of the Bentley Batur design, the most powerful Bentley-produced car with a 740 PS-powered W12 twin-turbo engine.

The Ducati Diavel for Bentley engine has nothing to do with being powered by a 1.158 cc Granturismo V4 engine, generating 168 hp and 126 Nm torque. This machine is known to be light, compact, and responsive, providing a dynamic driving experience both when carried fast or driven slowly.

While the design is from elements of Batur characteristics adopted by Centrotamae Ducati to create a new and unique design for Diavel for Bentley. The color of Scarab Green, taken from the Bentley Culiner palette, is used throughout the bodywork of the motor.

Some of the striking design elements include a whole new rim, a side air channel shape that reflects the two-colour front culling of Batur, and a double exhaust redesigned to produce a harmonious display.

Ducati Diavel for Bentley is believed to be a rare collection and it is possible that all of its units have ordered at an undisclosed price. This motorbike will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, additional passenger seats, and motorcycle covers. Each motorcycle unit is also equipped with a production number listed on the carbon plate on the head of the motorcycle. Ducati also provides exclusive wooden boxes when shipping for each delivery of Dialvel for Bentley.

The cooperation between the two manufacturers also gave birth to the Capsule Collection, specifically for the owner of the Dialve for Bentley, which consists of helmets and technical jackets in limited editions, all in accordance with the motorcycle color scheme.
