No. 749/999 shocks are different lengths. You can use any 748/916/996/998 shock though. If you're not bothered about the "badge", have a look at...
The recall appears to be triggered by the mounting screws coming loose. This allows the composite to crack. The backrests aren’t fitted at the...
From experience, trust me…. If there are multiple options and scenarios, the errors and mistakes will multiply. It seems pretty difficult in some...
The chain tension should never be set on the centre stand. It’ll be way too tight when in use.
Spinning the bobbins has been a trick for years and is ok for a quick clean. Don’t get carried away though, especially if using a drill to spin...
Quite normal tbh. More pronounced when going backwards. All the above would deal with potential issues, but if it's slight and there are no...

The date stamp in one of the pictures is "10 99", so 1999 made. Could be early 996BP or 748, they're the same wheels. They look heavily tarnished...

All new UK Ducati should come with it.
