SS 750 Super Sport

2000 Ducati SS 750 Super Sport Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Ducati's sport motorcycle platform, the 2000 Ducati SS 750 Super Sport relies on a 748 cc (45.6 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 64 HP (46.7 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 63 Nm (46.5 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 85.6 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (8,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.

On the scales, the SS 750 Super Sport measures 183 kg (403 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.35 HP/kg (2.86 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 815 mm (32.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,405 mm (55.3 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 16-liter (4.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 205 km/h (127 mph).
