The late square-case 750 Super Sport kept the 1975-76 desmodromic engine and rigid chassis, with refinements to reliability and the gear change over the years. By 1979 it appeared in black and gold with cast wheels, the last of the line before the 900SS dominated. It stayed a low-volume, enthusiast machine.
