I went to a Ducati event for their new 1200 Monster at Ferracci's last night and they just got a Rivale in so we were able to see it and throw a leg over it. I can't wait to take one for a spin! It was a non ABS version.

My dealer has the ABS versions in, took their demo out last weekend, great fun sure you'll enjoy it

Eurosports in Coopersburg, Pa. has one too. Red/silver.

I was surprised how tall the seat height is.

Moto Forza here in SoCal has them in as well.

Can ride height be lowered ?

Tall seat height is good for us tall guys, Adrian, get a Brutale.

Yes, but they are limiting the market by building a bike so tall.

There are lowering kits available, reduces seat height by 20mm, not a huge amount but enough for most folks. I sat on a Rivale this week and it is ok for me and i have a 29inch inside leg.

Long travel suspension on the Rivale....if the wheels can move that much the chassis has to be higher.

Too tall for me, but so are a lot of bikes out there.

 

[crash2much]

Moto Forza has lowering kits available that work on the Rivale, 3 cyl. Brutale, and the F3.

 

[Donsy]

It's nice to have bikes that will work for taller/normal guys.
