Penned by Pierre Terblanche, in bigger capacity 999 form it became one of the most successful race bikes every produced by Ducati Corse, winning 3 out of 5 World Superbike titles between 2003 and 2007. The 749 Dark was so named because of it’s individual Nero Opaco (Matt Black) paintwork which gave it a very stealthy look. It’s 748cc Testastretta L-Twin motor produced 105ps and was mounted in a traditional lightweight, but very strong trellis frame constructed from ALS450 alloy, and finished in silver. Suspension was courtesy of Showa at both ends, with 43mm diameter fully adjusted TiN coated USD forks and progressive linkage fully adjustable rear monoshock. Brembo calipers featured on both front and rear brakes, with the front 4 pots grabbing 320mm floating front discs and the rear twin pot a 245mm disc. Very pretty 5-spoke ‘Y’ shaped alloy rims were fitted, as was a modern LCD instrument panel. As was traditional for Ducatis of the era, Marelli electronic fuel injection and engine management kept fuel pumping through the twin 54mm throttle bodies This particular bike is completely stock, standard and original, exactly as it left the Ducati factory, other than for a carbon fibre rear hugger Any Ducati Superbike of this vintage is now becoming more sought after, and ever more collectable. This bike will appeal to any buyer that places great importance on originality, mileage and condition, three of the most important factors, in our view, when purchasing any collectible car or motorcycle Needs nothing at all.
