  1. Anyone tell me exactly which model this one is, please?

    I think it is a 748.

    Thanks, AL

  2. The 748 has a narrower rear wheel than the 916,but can you spot that;)
     
  3. Does it? I thought they were both 180/55? AFAIK there’s no way to tell the difference when the bike’s in motion. 748/916 of that pre 2000 vintage both look the same.

  4. Look a late 748 to me.
     
  5. Doesn’t a late 748 have the 5 spoke Marchesini’s. Even very blurry, it looks like it has the 3 spoke Brembo’s.

  8. Thanks - near enough for me.

  9. No, doing a painting based on it.

    But I did nearly buy a 900ss the other day - went off it because it didn't sound right, too mechanically rumbly.
     
  10. The chap looks quite portly, you may need more paint than you think :D
     
  11. Looks a skinny fella to me ! :bucktooth:

  12. 748E single position damper bracket :bucktooth:
     
  13. Yes, plus it has 65mm caliper mounts so not a 916 or early 748 (40 mm), it has post '97 graphics and it's not a 996 as the cans are too small, meaning it's likely to be a 748.

    Of course it could be a 'bitsa'...

  14. Nah, I will just make him look thinner around the gut area!

    Thanks everyone. I will probably have it done in say, four months time.
