My husband has owned his dual seat 1974 Sport since new. We have several motorcycles & the Sport is by far his favourite motorcycle.

Nothing better than a Roundcase. The longer you own one the harder it is to part with it.

Best bike I ever owned.

Nice! It’s a beautiful motorcycle

Something you park in your livingroom. Beautiful.

I bought a new 350 cc non-desmo Mark3 in 1973, and never regretted it. My only concern was that I couldn't afford the 750 cc.

It's such a wonderful motorcycle! ... and you are right, one has to own such a beauty of a bike as long as one lives.

Soooo Gooood Lex and Jeremy !!! Well done and thank you for sharing !

Thank you for watching!

Oh my sweet Jesus! What a beauty!

I bought a 750S back in 1974 just like this one from a dealer in Perth, can’t remember the name right now. Yes they are a beautiful bike but mine was always hard to start for some reason. Kept it for a couple of years and sold it. I’ve still got the owners manual. I was working at the Windarra nickel mine at the time and those long straight roads up there didn’t really suit it. Mine had the single seat and wasn’t the most comfortable for long trips. I’ve got a Z900RS now.

So nice to see a Sport not chopped up and turned into a "green frame". Awesome bike, mine was this model, single Scarab disc though. Bought it second hand for $1400 and got $1800 when I traded it in at Fraser's on a first model Pantah 500SL. Not a day goes I don't kick myself that I don't have that Sport anymore.😊

What a beautiful bike!

Beautiful Mate !!

Thanks Michael!

sublime in so many ways.

what a fantastic machine .

Beautiful as it is, please never "restore" it.

I have exactly the same beautiful bike. 😊

Fantastic 👍

I had the GT and really loved it . I foolishly sold it to buy the larger 900 Darmah ( seduced by black and gold ) and while it was faster , it was very-different to that nimble 750 . Dave nz

Love it

Great bike, but never seen one with a dualseat over here in Europe.

I love this bike :((

è uno dei tanti (troppi) 750 GT trasformati in 750 SPORT, quest' ultimo ha i carter motore e la distribuzione a coppie coniche NERI: anche la sella e i freni non sono dello SPORT.

Mi dispiace amico mio, questa è una vera 750 Sport del 1974 consegnata in Australia. Dal 1974 gli involucri erano lucidi, non neri. La sella è originale originale Ducati 750 Sport Opzione doppia sella. Il freno anteriore è Super Sport. I Conti sono dalla cassa quadrata. Tutto il resto è pura 750 Sport.

@@ernstsca1098 No, temo che non sia corretto. Durante il 1974 la 750 Sport ottenne casse in alluminio lucidato. Dopo non furono più dipinte di nero. Questo valeva per tutte le Sport costruite a Bologna, indipendentemente dal paese in cui venivano spedite. Il numero di motore di questa Sport la identifica come produzione della fine del 1974 e le custodie in alluminio lucidato sono originali e corrette.

You are correct. My 1974 750 Sport, sold in America, has polished engine cases. Ian Falloon's book contains details of the small differences between 750 Sports.

Hello mate, have you run that jacket in yet?

Best looking bike of the era…in my opinion even better looking than the greenframe…just lacking the rear cowling, do you still have it?

Yes I do, I have both. The solo seat is actually a little lower than the dual seat, and adds to feeling of really moulding into the bike rather than sitting on it. The dual seat is nice but a little smaller than the GT dual seat and feels a little cramped for the pillion. I may go back to the solo seat and just use the GT for 2-up :)

@@DM750S Yeah I know the feeling. I have a ‘79SS and also have both seats, but rarely use the pillion seat

that seating position looks horribly uncomfortable... but it sure is a lovely machine.

It's a little hard on the back in the traffic, but over 100kph, it's perfect cos you're leaning into the wind, which is a must if you want comfort at speed with no fairing

My husband commuted into Sydney CBD from out the back of Liverpool for 10 years. He also used to ride the Sport from Sydney to Adelaide only stopping to refuel. He is in his late 60s & still loves riding the Sport though an hour or two on the bike is his preference now.

è vero,le ultime 750 sport avevano i carter lucidati. non so se, dietro richiesta, la Ducati fornisse la moto con sella biposto (senza il codino). mi rimane il dubbio circa la testa della forcella che mi risulta essere nera.
