Ducati Diavel 1260 S & XDiavel 1260 Vandemon Bimodal Stealth Titanium Slip-On Exhaust 2016-2023

Description

Experience the perfect balance between everyday rideability and uncompromising Ducati performance with the Vandemon Bimodal Stealth Titanium Slip-On Exhaust System. Designed specifically for the Ducati Diavel 1260, Diavel 1260 S, XDiavel, and XDiavel S models, this innovative titanium exhaust allows riders to switch between two distinct exhaust personalities with the simple press of a button. Unlike conventional aftermarket exhaust systems that force riders to choose between noise and practicality, the Vandemon Bimodal Stealth System delivers both. In Stealth Mode, exhaust gases are routed through a large central muffler, producing a refined sound similar to the factory exhaust. Switch to Open Mode and the titanium valve redirects exhaust flow through all mufflers, unleashing the full Ducati Testastretta DVT soundtrack with maximum flow and performance. Constructed entirely from aerospace-grade Ti1 titanium, this exhaust replaces the bulky OEM catalytic converter and heavy steel mufflers with a lightweight performance-focused system. The result is improved throttle response, reduced heat retention, substantial weight savings, and an aggressive appearance worthy of Ducati's flagship power cruiser. Key Features Full Ti1 Aerospace-Grade Titanium Construction Bimodal Variable Valve Technology Switch Between Quiet and Performance Modes Cat-Delete Titanium Mid-Pipe Design German-Made BMW Servo-Controlled Valve Carbon Fiber Heat Shield Included Lightweight 4.5kg System Up To 8 HP Increase After Dyno Tuning Up To 14 Nm Torque Increase After Tuning Reduced Heat Retention Faster Throttle Response Precision Full-Penetration TIG Welding Plug-and-Play Handlebar Switch Direct Bolt-On Installation Kit Included Dual-Mode Exhaust Technology Stealth Mode (Quiet) Perfect for: Early morning starts Urban commuting Residential areas Long-distance highway touring Noise-sensitive environments With the valve closed, exhaust gases flow through the central muffler, creating a refined and neighbor-friendly exhaust note while maintaining excellent rideability.

Reduced mass improves acceleration, handling, braking response, and overall riding dynamics. Improved Power & Torque When combined with professional ECU tuning, riders can achieve: Up to +8 HP Up to +14 Nm Torque Sharper throttle response Stronger mid-range acceleration These gains transform the already powerful Ducati Testastretta DVT engine into an even more responsive machine. Reduced Heat Titanium dissipates heat significantly faster than steel, helping reduce heat soak around the rider, rear bodywork, and passenger area during traffic and hot-weather riding. Premium Titanium Construction Vandemon's Ti1 titanium construction offers several advantages: Exceptional strength-to-weight ratio Corrosion resistance No rust or discoloration No polishing required Faster cooling than stainless steel Long-term durability Unique blue and purple titanium heat coloration Each exhaust features Vandemon's signature fishbone-style TIG welds that are highly regarded among Ducati enthusiasts for both strength and appearance.

Discussions among Ducati riders frequently mention how some performance exhausts can become excessively loud for everyday use, making a dual-mode system especially attractive. The Bimodal concept solves this problem by allowing riders to choose between comfort and maximum performance whenever needed.
