SSSA – 2006 Ducati 749S

According to the book Ducati 999, when Pierre Terblanche initially designed the 749/999, he wanted it to have a single sided swing arm (SSSA). Obviously, he didn’t win that battle, but the book shows lots of great concept sketches of the 999 with a SSSA. The seller of this bike decided to turn it into what Terblanche would have wanted thanks to the swing arm from a 848.

What’s great is that the seller documents the swap in this thread, so you can peruse what it took to make this happen. It’s definitely worth a read to see how he dealt with the exhaust, among other things.

In addition to the swing arm, this 749S has a Termi exhaust, Ohlins shock, Speedymoto frame sliders, Woodcraft rearsets, and plenty more. It’s been recently serviced and it’s ready to add to the 14,000 miles on the odometer.
