Rider Profile

Best For	This bike demands an experienced rider comfortable with a high-strung V-twin, aggressive geometry, and razor-sharp handling at speed.
Purpose	Built primarily for spirited canyon carving and track days rather than commuting or long-distance travel.
Rider Fit	The committed clip-on riding position and high footpegs put significant weight on wrists and demand a fit, flexible rider, especially at low speeds or in traffic.
Character	A raw, mechanical, and visceral sportbike with desmodromic engine character and a distinctly analog, focused riding experience.
Not Ideal For	This is not a good choice for new riders, tall touring distances, two-up riding, or anyone prioritizing comfort and practicality.

Units

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2003 Ducati 748, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
