Hey guys,
So Ruben decided to come down to Santa Barbara Ducati yesterday and pick up his new Xdiavel!
We were able to get in a short ride together and he absolutely loved the bike and thinks his Father will too when he surprises him with it a few weeks from now.
I also had a chance to chat with Rik, the 2nd grand prize winner and he wants to get the new Diavel 1260 for the bi...

Hey Guys!
We put the stock Tuono on the dyno and it put down 160 hp!!! I can't believe it makes that much power in stock form and man that engine sounds incredible!
I can't wait to see how much power it makes when we add a full titanium exhaust, high flow filter and upmap from www.motomillion.com. This thing is gonna be a monster when we are done!
Also don't forget...

Hey guys!
Super excited to get the Tuono first service done! The break in oil looked surprisingly clean and the washer had very minimal engine shavings, so it looks like the bike is in perfect condition to move forward with the build!
Also, don't forget we will be choosing the winner for the Xdiavel build this coming Saturday, August 3rd at Ducati of Santa Barbara from 1 to 3p...

Hey Guys!
As I mentioned before I want to do more patreon only videos for you guys to include you more in the process of creating these beautiful custom machines.
I have finished putting on the break in miles and now tomorrow I can have the first service done!
Early next week we will put this beast on the dyno to get the stock horse power numbers and then the upgrades from Man...

Hey guys!
So as you know I've got to put a few hundred break in miles on the Tuono before we can do the first service so I wanted to do a first ride and review for you to share my thoughts on the bike.
As I've mentioned in the purchase video, this bike has blown me away and far exceeded my expectations on what this bike would be like.
I'm so glad you guys convinced me to try o...

Hey guys!
I wanted to do a walk around and features of this bike because as I was reading about it, I was pretty blown away by the electronics package and overall features of this machine.
Normally I would include this with the first ride but as I mentioned in the video there was just way too much to cover in this instance.
What do you guys think of the electronics and feature...

Hey guys!
We put the stock Tuono with a full tank of gas on the scales to get a stock weight figure and it surprisingly weighs 470 lbs! I didn't think the bike would be that heavy as it cares it's weight very well but my goal is to try and strip off 30 lbs of weight by the time we are done.
I also mention a lot of our build series plans. Highlights include carbon wheels,...

Hey guys,
As I mentioned before, all of this months videos were filmed prior to the passing of my good friend. The happiness at the shop seems a bit disrespectful now so please understand the circumstances changed after this was filmed.
I am however excited for this next build. I ordered almost $20k worth of parts from Mani at www.motomillion.com for this bike and let me...

Hey guys,
This wasn't the video I was expecting to make today but I felt everyone deserved to know everything that is going on right now as a result of my friend passing. Details for anyone who would like to attend the public viewing are in the description of the video.

Hey guys,
It pains me to say this but my good friend Carlin passed away this morning during his race at pikes peak.
He was on world record time when he went off the road right near the finish line.
I spoke with his father this morning and the new owners of the Ducati shop and we decided it would be best to postpone the giveaway event until further notice.

I want to share more of the design process with you guys this time around so I wanted to show you what direction I am heading when it comes to the custom paint scheme.
The one from the thumbnail is my current favorite but I've got two different designers working on different ideas for me as we speak as well.
I want to get your feedback on what you think and if you've...

Hey Guys!
I'm super excited to share our next build series bike with you! Its a 2018 Aprilia Tuono 1100 Factory!
The pic above is from a build Motomillion did and we will be using a lot of the same parts so I thought it gave a good idea of the direction we will be heading with this build.
Also, I wanted you to know that I took all of your feedback ...

Hey guys!
I wanted to do a final video of the Custom Xdiavel to talk a little bit about the cost of the build, inspiration and share some of my favorite parts from the project.
Also since I had so many question about parts specifically, Mani created an entire section on his website where you can find all of the parts we used for the build.
Hey guys!
Christina and I put the Xdiavel on the weight scale and found out we saved just under 60 lbs on this project!!!
The bike in stock form weighed 545 lbs and today it weighed 485 lbs! Taking into consideration that it also put out just under 150 hp on the dyno I think that makes this one of the lightest and fastest street legal Xdiavel's in the world!
Christina al...

Hey guys!
I put the Custom Xdiavel on the Dyno yesterday at Ducati of Santa Barbara and it put down 148 hp!
Bone stock it put down 140 hp so we picked up 8 hp with our mods!
This also doesn't take into account the weight savings of 50 to 60 lbs that we've stripped off the bike which we will be finding out in the next episode.
I think these kind of numbers make this one o...

Hey guys!
We got the final parts installed on the bike and I think it looks absolutely perfect with all of the mods we've done.
We finished it off with a carbon headlight cover, ducabike reservoir caps and a ducabike clear front sprocket cover that looks super cool.
I just wanted to thank you guys once again for your continued support. We couldn't do these series without...

Hey Guys!
I can't even begin to describe how freaking unreal this tank turned out AND how incredible it looks on the bike.
Trevor and Bill absolutely crushed it with this thing and literally gave me exactly what I had envisioned and I couldn't be happier with the result.
I am actually shocked by how much it has transformed the bike. It now looks like a hand built, one of...

I literally am at a loss for words regarding this tank...Trevor and Bill absolutely exceeded all of my expectations and I couldn't be happier with how this tank turned out.
Bill is going to add the rest of the decals this week and then clear coat the tank and it will be ready to be installed!
We've only got a few episodes left before we choose a winner for this bad boy and I can't t...

Hey guys!
We got the full carbon tail section installed and it looks SOOOOO GOOOD!
I've been waiting for this for so long and the parts finally came in from back order and man was it worth the wait!
We will be working on the tank tomorrow as well so this thing is getting close!
Enjoy the episode and stay tuned for more!

Hey guys!
We are back in action! Got the ilmberger carbon cam covers installed and they look incredible!
They also saved another 4lbs off the bike which puts out total weight savings so far over 50 lbs!
Needless to say this will be one of the lightest and fastest Xdiavels on the Planet when we are done!
Working on the tank again next so stay tuned!

Hey Guys!
So Christina and I installed some throttle spacers onto the Xdiavel to clean up the throttle play and it feels so much better now.
These are honestly a must have mod for any Ducati, or bike that has throttle play. It makes such a big difference on the feel and the overall ride of the bike and I'm very happy we installed them.
You can read more about them or sna...

Hey guys!
We got the carbon radiator side panels installed and they look sooooo good!
This is just a small preview of how good this thing is gonna look when we are done!
We are still waiting for carbon that is on back order but in the meantime we will get to work on the tank and install some spacers in the new two episodes so stay tuned!
Enjoy the video!

So I listened to all of your feedback (all of which I agreed with) and decided to re-install the stock bars. I will send the custom drag bars along with the new owner if they would like to try them out.
Excited about the new grips and bar end's that are set up for the crg arrow mirrors. These grips surprisingly make a big difference as they play a huge role in ...

So we got the custom drag bars installed and man do they look AMAZING!
However, if I'm honest, they are a lot more uncomfortable than I had anticipated...if it were my bike, I'd honestly put the stock bars back on BUT I want to know what you guys think?
Do you prefer the sexy looks or do you want the bike to ride better and be more comfortable. No matter which ...

So we were finally able to get a replacement ECU flash from Ducati for the Termi system and man does it make a huge difference.
The bike is so much smoother now and it pulls from anywhere in the RPM, which makes the bike even more fun to ride than before.
We will be doing a dyno session once the bike is complete but I'd guess its picked up 8 to 12 hp from the stock s...
