Ducati 749 front turn signal bulbs use 906 size, while rear turn signal bulbs use 232 and 5008 sizes for proper illumination. The replacement chart covers 2003 to 2006 model years with corresponding bulb specifications.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The Ducati 749 front turn signal uses the 906 bulb across all model years from 2003-2006.
The 906 is a T10 miniature wedge bulb rated at 12V and 8W, conforming to ANSI standards for the US and Canadian markets.
The T10 wedge base on the 906 bulb is a push-fit design that requires no rotation during installation or removal.
The Ducati 749 rear turn signal uses the 232 bulb for 2003 and 2005-2006 model years.
The 232 is a festoon bulb with an SV8.5 base, rated at 12V and 3W, also conforming to ANSI standards for the US and Canadian markets.
Festoon bulbs are cylindrical in shape and are held in place by spring-loaded contacts at each end rather than a base socket.
The 2004 Ducati 749 rear turn signal takes the 5008 bulb, which differs from the 232 used in the other model years.
The 5008 uses a BA15s bayonet base and is a single-filament bulb rated at 12V, noted as a lower wattage variant of the 1156.
The BA15s bayonet base on the 5008 is not interchangeable with the SV8.5 festoon base of the 232, making the 2004 rear turn signal socket physically incompatible with the bulb used in the other model years.
All bulbs specified for the Ducati 749 turn signals conform to ANSI standards applicable to the US and Canadian markets.
