MOT: June 2025
The Massimo Tamburini designed 916 changed the face of motorcycle styling in 1994 and Pierre Terblanche's follow-up 749/999 range is now being recognised as another design milestone. This 749 in classic Ducati Red is presented in good original condition, showing a credible 10,690 miles on its speedometer, and is being offered at no reserve. It is the Biposto model with Brembo brakes, Ohlins rear shock, some carbon fibre covers and Pirelli Diablo tyres. The bike comes with a service book showing maintenance carried out by Proteam Ducati London and Italsport in the past with a full recommissioning service by Paul at Mantis Performance, an ex-TT and BSB technician, at a cost of £1,780 only last year. This included new plugs, oil, fuel and air filters, chain and sprockets, battery, crank position sensor, Samco hoses and the all-important timing belts. The valve clearances were done at 10,442 miles, as per a previous invoice. Lots of other detail work was carried out by Paul to get it up to his exacting standards, all set up on his dynamometer and running beautifully. Kept on an Oxford trickle charger since, it will be given a new MOT shortly before the auction and comes supplied with its original service and owner’s manuals, a copy of the May 2023 service receipt, keys, including the red one, and a current V5C.
