Strong personality both in design and performances, the Diavel mixes sporty soul and comfort and riding pleasure.
Owner and chef of Osteria Francescana, a three-star Michelin restaurant in the heart of Modena, Bottura is a passionate motorcyclist who has chosen the excellence of Ducati and the innovative design of the Diavel 1260 S to express his love for riding.
The best choose the best. This is also the case for Massimo Bottura, whose Osteria Francescana restaurant was named best in the world in 2016 and 2018 by The World’s 50 Best Restaurants. Born in Modena and proud of his Emilian roots, Bottura’s DNA contains a visceral love for his homeland, an immense passion for motorcycles and for products truly Made in Italy that he always reinterprets in a contemporary key. All this led him to choose Ducati, with which he shares a bold style, meticulous research and the creative culture to design a bike that reflects his volcanic temperament.
But as with every dish he serves, for his bike Massimo Bottura wanted unique, distinctive details: a seat that bears his signature and three Michelin stars shining on the underseat and on the plate. At Casa Maria Luigia, the new guest house opened by the Chef in the Modena countryside where he grew up, Bottura was immortalised with his custom Diavel 1260 S.
