Rider Profile

Best For	This is a demanding sportbike best suited to experienced riders who are comfortable with aggressive, high-revving V-twin performance and razor-sharp handling.
Purpose	Built as a homologation-special superbike, its purpose is track-focused cornering speed and pure sporting performance rather than everyday practicality.
Rider Fit	The committed clip-on riding position, high footpegs, and low, firm seat demand good flexibility and strength, and become tiring quickly on longer rides.
Character	It has the raw, mechanical character of a classic Ducati V-twin superbike, rewarding precise inputs with sharp steering and strong midrange punch.
Not Ideal For	It is not a good fit for new riders, commuters seeking comfort, or anyone planning long-distance touring or two-up travel.

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 2001 Ducati 748 R, 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.
