The '''Ducati 749''' is a 90-degree L-twin powered sport bike built by [[Ducati Motor Holding]] between 2004 and 2006. It was available as the '''749''', '''749 Dark''', '''749S''', and '''749R'''. It shared many of its parts with the [[Ducati 999|999]], with the exception of a slightly smaller 180/55 profile rear tire, smaller cylinders, and different cylinder heads, giving it a smaller displacement of 748 cubic centimeters. This smaller engine is higher revving and produces a lower peak horsepower than the larger motor used in the 999. The 749S model, like the 999, incorporates features rarely found on production motorcycles, including adjustable [[Rake and trail|rake]] (23.5° or 24.5°) and five-position adjustable rearset mounts.

A limited number of the 749 were manufactured as a race version, the 749R, which each had their production number stamped on the triple clamp. This race model had a shorter-stroke, increased bore and larger titanium valves which allowed it to run more efficiently at higher RPM, and hence, produced more torque and power than the 749/S models. The 749R also came with a larger tank (4.8 US gallons), a slipper clutch, [[Öhlins]] forks, shock and steering damper. Its 2004 model had carbon fiber fairings. At the time (2004-06) the 749R model sold for $22,000.
A limited number of the 749 were manufactured as a race version — the 749R — each with their production number stamped on the triple clamp – and initially cost almost twice the original 749 base model. This race model was lighter, had a shorter stroke, increased bore and larger valves which allowed it to run more efficiently at higher RPM, and hence, produced more torque and power than the 749/S models. The 749R also came with a larger fuel tank ({{convert|18.3|L|abbr=on|disp=or}}); slipper clutch; [[Öhlins]] forks, shock and steering damper; racing cams; titanium valves, valve guides, and connecting rods; magnesium head covers, and carbon fiber belt covers. Its 2004 model had carbon fiber fairings.


The 749 was replaced by the [[Ducati 848]] for the 2008 model year.

The Ducati 749 is a 90° V-twin Desmodromic valve actuated engine sport bike built by Ducati Motor Holding between 2003 and 2007.[1] Designed by Pierre Terblanche, the 749 was available as the 749, 749 Dark, 749S, and 749R. It shared many of its parts with the 999, with the exception of a slightly smaller 180/55 profile rear tire, smaller cylinders, and different cylinder heads, giving it a smaller displacement of 748 cc. This smaller engine is higher revving and produces a lower peak horsepower than the larger engine used in the 999. The 749S model, like the 999, incorporates features rarely found on production motorcycles, including adjustable rake (23.5° or 24.5°) and five-position adjustable rearset mounts.

A limited number of the 749 were manufactured as a race version — the 749R — each with their production number stamped on the triple clamp – and initially cost almost twice the original 749 base model. This race model was lighter, had a shorter stroke, increased bore and larger valves which allowed it to run more efficiently at higher RPM, and hence, produced more torque and power than the 749/S models. The 749R also came with a larger fuel tank (18.3 L or 4.0 imp gal or 4.8 US gal); slipper clutch; Öhlins forks, shock and steering damper; racing cams; titanium valves, valve guides, and connecting rods; magnesium head covers, and carbon fiber belt covers. Its 2004 model had carbon fiber fairings.

The 749 was replaced by the Ducati 848 for the 2008 model year.
