From the 1999 Neiman Marcus Catalog
The Ducati 748L takes speed and safety to a new reference point. Ducati, the premier brand of superbikes in the world, has built an international racing legacy through more than fifty years of superior engineering, championship performance, and cutting edge Italian design. The 748L is one of 100 limited-edition motorcycles, factory assembled in Bologna - exclusively presented through Neiman Marcus. Performance painted a custom "mercury" color with custom graphic detail, the liquid-cooled two-seater comes outfitted with select carbon fiber parts, expressly made DKNY leather jacket, Dainese gloves and a factory dust cover. Already a classic, the 748L is now a collector's item.
