748 what classes

[41jason41]

Hi, this is my first post.  What classes can you run with the 748 besides the middle weight or larger cc stuff? And is it a competitive bike in the smaller cc classes? Thnx

It's also Thunderbike & Supertwins legal.  It's a bit on the overweight side, but with the right rider it can be competitive.

.... but with the right rider it can be competitive.

That would be someone who....hmmmm...doesn't fall down too much

A 748 is legal in LW classes? Thats news to me.

Ducati 748 is Thunderbike and above, no LW classes

Thnx, I have a chance to ride a 748 or a 800ss and I'm having trouble deciding which one. I thought the 748 might have an advantage in some classes. But it dosent seem so. What about the 800ss? Would that be a better choice?

whoops-- my mistake.  looks like i won't be running the duc in LW!  sorry gang.  (but i just might give it a go in TB!)

The 748 that i have ran against have been ultra-fast. Typically the 748 will turn faster times than the 800. Look at the times at Homestead in December. Fuentes #210 in Supertwins and Villa in Ultralight. The 748 is legal in Thunderbike and up, the 800 in Ultra-light and up.
