keep in mind the 750 is a much different engine than the 800/900/1000 2 valve engines.

The 750 is the final development of the pantah/500 sl engines that you saw on the aluzarras and pantahs etc. Not the same engine as the 750 F1 or 1989-90 750 sport.

The 750 supersports and monsters are 5 speeds with wet clutches vs the 800/900/1000 6 spd/dry clutch.

The early M750's have some minor issues, especially cagiva/castiglioni era ones. Not bad if you can find a cheap one, however.

The aircooled 2v ducs in general are very robust and durable engines. Not nearly as $$$ as 4 valve watercoolers ie 851/888/916/955/748/996 etc. I used to have a 94 900SS CR converted to SP specs,and my best friend has an 01 900SS. The low-mid range rush of a well tuned 800-1000cc 2v is awesome.
