[Ducati] SBK Throttle Body Question/ 748->996 conversion

[Dave Acey]

I believe that prior to the year 2000 the 748 throttle bodies were sleeved
down to 44mm to meet FIM supersport requirements. I think 2000 up
desmoquattros all used the same 50mm TBs (except 748RS ?). More power, cost
savings, it's all good.
