[gunforhire]

Hi-
I've just bought a 1998 748 for my wife.
Very happy with the deal I got but like most Ducati's it's been tinkered with and not much of the old bike remains!
There's the usual carbon and bits, slipper clutch, cans, marcesini but 3 things stand out....

1) It was sold as a 1998 748BP but the chassis sticker says 748S - does anyone know what the differences between the 1998 BP and S models was? I know that from 2000(ish) they had Marcesini's and lighter internals...

2) Termis... it has carbon cans with Termigoni stickers but after sifting through the piles of paperwork that came with it, I found a receipt from John Hackett Performance - JHP. Now I'm not bothered actually if they are Termi's or JHP ; would actually prefer JHP, as EVERYONE has termis . I'd just like to know what they are. Should Termis be stamped any where? I can only see a 'Not for Road Use' stamped on the rear collars.

3) Discs... They look massive!!! I had a 2001 748E, and I'm certain that the disc weren't as big. Where the discs different between the BP and S models? I know the SPS different ones.

Cheers
