There is a site that lists registered bikes and cars, well the count but the name escapes my mind.

Not sure how accurate it is though as it said there we like 14 748S's lol

Ian Faloon's summary is the most comprehensive source that I know of. COMPLETE '94-'04 US Superbike Production Numbers: 998/996/916/748 - Ducati.ms - The Ultimate Ducati Forum

Yeah... like I got nothing better to do than total up all of the 916 series superbikes from Ian Faloon's list. I gave him a source... he can take it from there.
