The Ducati 750SS was a sports motorcycle part of the Supersport series in Ducati's range. It debuted in 1988 to replace the Ducati Pantah and continued production until 2007 when the Ducati Supersport 950 model came to replace it.
The bike's name was taken from the 1970s round case Ducati 750 Supersport and 1975 square case 900cc and 750cc Supersport models. The 750SS model was a smaller, more affordable version of the 900cc model.
In 1995, the Italian motorcycle maker launched the Ducati 750SS, a sports machine with the same package as the previous model, delivering the exact technical, visual, and performance specifications without significant modifications.
The bike's aesthetic was represented by factory-fitted standard fittings, such as three-spoke lightweight aluminum wheels with Dunlop Sportmax Radial tires, a full fairing with a windscreen, a large, rectangular headlight, a single-piece seat with a pillion grab handle, and a dual exhaust system with a silencer on both sides.
The 1994 Ducati 750SS had a 748cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine installed underneath its armor. Two Mikuni carburetors managed the engine, delivering an output power of 66 hp at 8,500 rpm and 72 Nm (53 lb-ft) torque at 6,500 rpm.
The bike was teamed by a 320 mm disc mounted on the front wheel engaged by a four-piston caliper and a 245 mm disc installed on the rear end with a dual-piston caliper, offering excellent braking performance.
