Well I've decided to say F*CK it and buy myself this 02' 748s in Matte Gray. Been wanting a Tamburini super-bike my entire life and found one that looks clean as. 7100 miles, been sitting since last June or so. Prior to that it had it's 6K service in 06' and pretty much stopped being ridden in 07'. Each year since then it's gotten yearly flush, fuel stabalizer, oil...but not ridden much. And it's lived it's entire life inside out in the desert southwest so no worries about rust...just "grit" ;-)
02's have the strange head/header so the aftermarket exhaust is a welcome addition. It's probably hard to find them for the 02 748 perhaps? Also thinking the Ohlins rear is not standard, can't find a 02 748s photo with one. But these "Final Year" bikes are sometimes wonky...who knows, I'm glad it has one. Otherwise, pretty stock, mirrors in a box, "evelozone" rear signal integrated with the brake lights. Someone kinda loved it enough to not screw it up to bad, but then gave up riding I guess.
I love this paint job, so much in fact I painted my first monster just like it...excited to own this.
It'll head in for a full service directly, belts, flush, hoses and I'll just pray the rockers are ok, but I'm mentally prepared. As of the 6K the rockers were supposedly fine, and not much has happened since then. Wish her luck in her diagnosis oh great Ducati Cabal.
