I believe the engine is the same so should be the same servicing as a standard 748. I had my white seat repalced after an off and its like £500 just for the plastic unit no brackets or stuff!

I hope i get more than 6000 for mine if i decide to swap this year, but not likely i guess

You do realise that the grey ones are a batch of bikes that were sent out from the factory before the final coat of red was applied.

There has been a world wide recall of these bikes to be sent back to the factory where the top coat will be applied free of charge.

: bouncy:



the greys are nice, i had a look at 1 last year thats was reduced to below £5k as they couldnt sell it at over £6k, the bikes are only worth what the buyer thinks and unfortuantely now you can buy a new 749 import for not much over £6k if you look in the right places

Many thanks for the comments.

£500 sound about right for a factory part

Deej, so you're saying it is I who have the power!

Hoping to pop into Ducati Wolverhampton sometime this week as its near work, anyone know what they have in?

Cheers.

And this is what it looks like with the bip tail unit still on!!

[rcgbob44]

Nuff said...............its undercoat!

[Lee1980]

Dont worry Ray, Bobs just jealous as his is sooooo common

And his wheels have no top coat!

[Ray_Von]

Thanks for all the pointers!

Upon further investigation the insurance for me on an S is just too ludicrous. So I have just got myself a standard, but rather individual bip. I saw it and just had to have it, I'm in love!

Many thanks anyway
Ray!

[Lee1980]

I thought the insurance was the same for both?

Anyway sounds like u got a nice bike enjoy Ray!!!!
