Performance is pretty good, I'd say it's on par with a modern inline 4 600cc from my experiences with my mates bikes, a bit down on power compared to them but so much more responsive due to the low down torque it makes... I love the exhaust note, handling and the out of the bend grunt you get with a decent sized v-twin

Plenty of vids of 748's on youtube if you want to have a look

M&S are the only Ducati dealer in the North East I believe.

They're nice bikes, i love this one but i dont get on with the riding position, I broke my right forearm a few years back



my wrist aches when i ride it, hence only doing 900 miles on it in 1 1/2 years.

I think I'm going to have a break from biking while i get my kit car built

https://passionford.com/forum/restorations-rebuilds-and-projects/340672-mac-motorsports-worx-build-update-04-04-10-a.html

so i'm selling to make space rather than get another bike, for some reason I'm really drawn to a retro naked bike like a Suzuki GSX1400 or maybe a sporty naked number like a Kawasaki Z1000... we'll see
