Ducati 749

Ducati 749 was a L-twin powered sport bike built by Ducati Motor Holding. It was available as the 749, 749 Dark, 749S, and 749R. It shared many of its parts with the 999, with the exception of a slightly smaller 180/55 profile rear tire, smaller cylinders, and different cylinder heads, giving it a smaller displacement of 748 cubic centimeters. This smaller engine is higher revving and produces a lower peak horsepower than the larger motor used in the 999. The 749s model, like the 999, incorporates features rarely found on production motorcycles, including adjustible rake (23.5° or 24.5°) and five-position adjustible rearset mounts. But as we know that it was replaced by the Ducati 848 for the 2008 model year.
