Rider Profile

Best For	This is a demanding machine best suited to experienced riders who are comfortable with sharp power delivery and a race-oriented riding position.
Purpose	Built primarily for spirited canyon carving and track-day performance rather than practical transportation.
Rider Fit	The aggressive clip-on bars, high rear-set footpegs, and firm suspension put significant strain on wrists, shoulders, and knees during long rides.
Character	A visceral, high-strung Italian sportbike with a desmodromic V-twin growl and razor-sharp handling that rewards precise, committed riding.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for beginners, commuters wanting comfort, or anyone planning long-distance touring or two-up travel.

Units

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

Feet:

At 780mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2005 Ducati 749 S, 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.
