Immaculate and original 2002 748RS SOLD
This is one of the last bikes produced by the racing department at Ducati, and one of around 25 units made that year
Purchased new from the factory in 2002, the bike has remained with one owner from new, and has been ridden on only three occasions. The rest of the time being spent in dry storage in a bike bubble.
It is, as far as can be deduced, the only remaining 2002 RS to be left outside of the factory which has not been raced or competed at any level.
The 2002 machine differed from previous RS models, with it being the last competitive year for this model prior to the introduction of the 749. It was produced to give Ducati a chance of winning the World Super Sport title, and it faced strong opposition from the Japanese manufacturers with their 600cc machines. Therefore Ducati threw everything they could at this model to improve its competitiveness.
This included modified engine management, a Magnetti Marelli digital race dash and loom, Ohlins WSB spec. forks and rear shock, revised lightweight loom. This was in addition to the already massively extensive list of bespoke components included in the RS package, which includes carbon fairings, underseat breather system, battery tray, dash brackets and fairing brackets, nose cone, seat unit, seat unit bracketry and mudgards, and heat shields and one piece belly pan. The frame is modified and lightened, race spec. Brembos, with lightenend discs, and a fiery motor with multiple specialist engine components giving 125 bhp at 12, 500 rpm and an all in weight of 170kg
While all of this was not enough to seal the WSS crown, they were able lift the highly regarded British Supersport crown with Stuart Easton on board, racing for the Team Monstermob.
Arguably the finest handling machine ever produced by Ducati, the 748RS remains one of the rarest and most iconic machines the factory has ever produced. And this is the finest example of that machine available anywhere in the world.
The bike is shown in pattern lightweight fibreglass fairings which are immaculate, in its factory infostrada colours. All the original carbon fairings are with the bike in storage (unpainted).
The bike has been ridden on three occasions. Each outing has been recorded with an initial rev limit of 6000rpm applied and a rev limit of 10, 000 rpm applied on 2 subsequent outings. Belts and oil were changed on each occasion. The bike has not run since 2008. It has been on static display since then.
You will not find a better or more original example of this bike.
