2002 Ducati 748R

***AVAILABLE SHORTLY*** 2002 Ducati 748R Autoevolution produced a superb summary of Ducati's top below (their copyright): In 2001, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer released the Ducati 748R, the most powerful machine in the range, which the House of Bologna has described it as the most advanced machine they ever produced. The bike came with a revised fuel injection system paired with a larger airbox, larger valves, new cams, new pistons, CNC-machined cylinder heads, and titanium conrods, resulting in 105 hp and 112 hp with a race exhaust mounted on it. The Ducati 748R was Ducati's racing homologation model and was manufactured in limited numbers. The suspension of choice for this machine comprised Ohlins components both front and rear, although the first models released in 2000 used a Showa suspension. In the appearance department, the bike was similar to its siblings, packing the same standard features, such as a full fairing with a dual headlight system, a small windscreen, a single seat, a dual exhaust system placed under the seat, a single-sided swingarm, and five-spoke Marchesini wheels. As for power, the 2001 Ducati 748R had installed underneath its fuel tank a 748cc four-stroke V-twin liquid-cooled engine with a revised fuel injection system, boasting 105 hp with a peak force at 11,000 rpm and 75 Nm (55 ln-ft) torque at 8,700 rpm. The bike's power was sent to a six-speed manual transmission with a hydraulically-operated multi-plate slipper clutch and a final chain drive that spun the rear wheel to a top speed of 250 kph (155 mph)
