Description
c.2001 Ducati 748 R Series 2
Registration no. Not UK Registered
Chassis no. ZDMH300AA1B008413
•Sold new in Italy
•Only 200 kilometres recorded
•Offered from a respected UK Ducati collection
•Requires re-commissioning
Footnotes:
Introduced in 2000, replacing the 748 SPS, the 748 R was built in order to homologate parts which Ducati required for their World Supersport Championship contender. The frame was borrowed from Ducati's 996 World Superbike racer, permitting the use of a much larger (14-litre) airbox and throttle body with a single shower-type fuel injector. Cams, valves, con-rods, etc were all up-rated and the 996-based engine produced a remarkable 106bhp at 11,000rpm from its 748cc.
Other notable features included a slipper clutch, different chassis settings and lightweight Marchesini wheels. For 2001, a second series was introduced, with Öhlins forks and rear shock absorber replacing the previous Showa items. The frame was lightened and at the same time stiffened by using a carbon fibre airbox. There were also detailed improvements to the engine.
This machine is one of the desirable 2nd Series, which we understand was limited to circa 1,500 units, this one being number '475'. Released from a respected UK Ducati collection, it is effectively new, having covered only 200 kilometres since it left the Bologna factory. As the machine is virtually unused, it should require light re-commissioning before use.
This rare and desirable modern Ducati is offered with its original Italian registration papers; original owner's manual and service book; UK Nova declaration; and two keys.
This lot is subject to an adjusted buyers premium scale.
15% on the first £500,000 of the hammer price.
12% of the hammer price of any amounts in excess of £500,000.
