I have a 2002 748 Ducati, can't really afford the MV right now. But was wondering if the MV wheels fit on a 748. Thanks, D

Nope!!!(axle size difference, unless you have a Corse axle).

Of course they wont... Can i raise up another question? I understrand that all MVs have this fading red centre stand. Im gonna buy a 2nd hand 998s soon, does the MV stand fit the ducati's rear hub or can i make any conversions?? is the stand only by MV or is it a universal type? Thanx!!!

Dza,

Again, it's the difference in axle size. Some modifications will be needed before the MV (larger) rear stand fits the 998 swingarm (smaller).

Cheers!!! :)

So if I get corse style axles I would be able to put those wheels on my 748.How much are those axles?

I couldn't belive someone had this same idea...A neiman marcus w/ MV wheels...would look awsome. By the way David, Anything is possible with a motorcycle, find a corse axle and make it work. It would look too good not to.

Im looking to do this same thing? did you ever got through with this? did it work out?

Even if a Corse axle takes care of the rear, what are you gonna do about the front? It would be much cheaper to put the latest Marchesini 10-spokes on the Duc. The new MVs will come with them and the mag versions are lighter than Oro mags.
