  • This is a clients Ducati 748 that has been standing for several years, and it is my task to get it fully roadworthy again.
    along the way, I find many problems that will make this project very interesting

    Afternoon my friend I also have had the same problem with 748s tank with rust. I made a plug for bottom of my tank and used the Electrolysis form of rust removal system and coated the inside of the tank with a Product called RedCoat. Its now been 7yrs and not a scrap of Rust has returned,
    Good luck with project, Steve (Australia)

      Yeh they look great... back in 2017 I went to a shop to look at a 2003 RSV R yellow it was immaculate with only 9k miles on it ...and only £2800 they were very cheap back then and I just totally regret not buying it. It was like brand new 😑

    original Ducati yellow 748/916/996 bikes had the fairings & tank painted in Ducati red first then yellow

      I bet the painter was passed off

    The 748 used to race in yellow so it's actually more "correct" for this model to be yellow as opposed to red

    It looks as if the tank wasn’t rust treated properly before applying the epoxy liner.

    christ, that tank. my gorgeous duke, same colour as this won't start. nothing at all on the button. been standing ten years in the dining room, haha. didn't know of the button for the choke. DOH! new battery, solenoid. bugger. think it must be wiring issues, can't hear the pump or the solenoid click, it will turn over when bridging across the nuts. there's one cable i need to trace back that has no power, no ohms.

      @@PXCBIKES yes, always aware of that when i got caught out once while i was out on it, came to a standstill. took me ten minutes to realise what i had done. going to check the stand switch today as the pump would come on when i raised the stand, now nothing. sort of ruling out the pump as neither it or the switch are working well the switch is working as i tested with a multi meter, just nothing happening.
