The 748R was introduced in 2000 with engine upgrades including shower injectors, high-lift cams, titanium connecting rods, titanium valves, and a larger carbon fiber airbox to feed the stronger (106 horsepower) motor. But the 2001 model was the one to get, as that’s when Ducati upgraded the brakes and the suspension to components befitting a homologation special, such as steel braided brake/clutch/fuel lines, a steering damper, and fully-adjustable Ohlins suspension front and rear.
Homologation rules required Ducati to build 1,000 examples, and we’ve heard that only about 100 were exported to the US.
This example is VIN: ZDM3H74R11B007377 is #997. The seller acquired it less than a year ago from a motorcycle collector in Georgia.
During his ownership, the seller has covered roughly 10 miles. The odometer shows 3,499 miles.
Modifications:
Arrow slip-on exhaust.
After market rear tail light and turn signals.
License plate relocator.
Carbon fiber lower cowl (original included).
Aftermarket wind screen.
Carbon fiber open clutch cover.
ProGrip Superbike grips.
The seller states that there are no known cosmetic or mechanical issues. It has aftermarket “Ducati” and “desmoquattro” decals on the lower fairings.
The tires and belts were replaced in 2018, and it got an oil change and complete fluid flush in June of 2021.
The sale includes the tool kit, original parts, headlight block off plate, owner’s manual, World Dealer Guide, dealer instructions, parts list, and a timing belt.
Currently located in Sanibel, Florida, this Ducati is offered on a clean Georgia title.
