For the 2006 model year, the Ducati 749s motorcycle has a listed dry weight of 410.1 lb (186 kg).
Ducati 749s weight overview
The bike falls into a normal middleweight range. At road speed the mass is usually less obvious; parking, slopes and walking-speed maneuvers are where you notice it most. The comparison uses dry weight because a usable wet/running figure was not supplied, so the actual ready-to-ride motorcycle will be heavier.

Ducati 749s weight FAQ
What is the Ducati 749s dry weight?
The available dry weight is 410.1 lb (186 kg). Actual ready-to-ride weight will be higher after fuel and operating fluids are added.
Is the Ducati 749s lighter or heavier than other Ducati motorcycles?
Weight is broadly typical for the category, landing around the 64th percentile in this model-level Ducati comparison.
How much does a full tank add to the Ducati 749s?
Based on the supplied 4.09 US gal (15.5 L) tank capacity, the gasoline itself weighs about 25.5 lb (11.5 kg) when full. This helps explain part of the difference between dry and ready-to-ride mass.
What is the combined Ducati 749s and rider weight?
Using the model’s representative dry weight and a 180 lb rider, the combined bike-and-rider mass is about 590.1 lb (267.6 kg) before riding gear, luggage or a passenger.
Is the listed Ducati 749s weight ready to ride?
The published usable figure is dry, not curb weight. A simple dry-plus-full-fuel estimate is 435.5 lb (197.5 kg), but that still is not a substitute for an official wet/curb specification.
How much heavier is the Ducati 749s with a full tank?
Filling the listed tank brings the calculated bike weight to roughly 435.5 lb (197.5 kg). This estimate is most useful when no official wet/running figure is available.
How much of the Ducati 749s total weight comes from fuel?
The calculated full-tank fuel mass is about 6.2% of the bike’s listed weight. This helps show why a dry-weight number can understate what you actually manage on the road.
How does Ducati 749s torque compare with its weight?
Where compatible torque and weight figures are available, the model works out to 15.16 lb-ft per 100 lb. This gives more context than torque alone because it relates engine twist to the mass it has to move.
What is the Ducati 749s engine-size-to-weight ratio?
The available figures work out to 1.82 cc per lb. This is not a performance rating, but it is a useful way to compare engine size against total motorcycle mass.
Motorcycle specifications can vary by model year, market, equipment and the exact dry/curb-weight definition. Calculated fuel-weight and ratio figures on this page are estimates derived from the supplied specifications. Confirm critical figures in the owner’s manual or on the official Ducati website.
