  2. 600/750SS deffo not a 748
    that will be the cc if its a 750SS could be re fairinged all the SSs of that generation share fairings bodywork and frame/wheels
    regards Steve
     
  3. Its not a 748.

    Ducati 750SS maybe?
     
  4. Are the 750SS 748cc capacity? Would explain the confusion... :)


    Edit - yep.
     
  5. Yep.....but hardly ever referred to as 748.

    If the OP wants info, I have a load, some big files though, so if he needs help he can PM me to exchange email address.

    From what I can see in the pics it's pretty much standard except the mirrors and the zorsts.

  6. cheers bro's
     
  7. PS...........although the OP says it is a 96 registered bike, I note the fairing hasn't got the later extra vents and it has the black footpeg hangers.....so it could be manufactured 1995.......Gold frame was 95 - 97.

    Watch it with the front wheel if doing any repairs.....two different axle sizes, bearings and speedo drive......changed around 94, maybe 95.......I need to see a shot of the brake disc centre and hub on the speedo drive side to be able to tell.

    Basically it is very much as mine was when I got it.

    AL.
     
  8. Probably a 750SS with 600 farings or maybe a 600 that has had a 750 motor fitted.
     
  9. Nah...It's a 750SS......twin zorsts, twin front discs...same as mine........fairing is just the non-extra vent version..

    Mine below, albeit altered from when I first got it.
