Mechanic started bike in 1st while it was on side stand

Was going over some work on my Paso. I told the mechanic that you had to be careful with this bike to make sure it's really in neutral when it says it is. He decided to show me some kind of "safety feature" as he put it in first before he turned it off (while it was on its sidestand). Then...

Re: 1990 Paso 906 - clutch line, brake lines

Also thanks desmo_demon, that's pretty wild that came loose like that! Only thing comparable I've run into was when the shifter clanked off my busa while riding. In restropect it was pretty funny going to downclick in heavy traffic, feeling around with my foot and thinking, "Huh, where's my shi...

Re: 1990 Paso 906 - clutch line, brake lines

Whoah, this is really appreciated you guys! I'm reading all your posts; I'm checking into what you've said about electrical and clutch and appreciate it a lot. I've only had a battery tester that says "good" "fair" or "bad" so I'm going to go grab a real voltmeter per y...

Re: 1990 Paso 906 - clutch line, brake lines

Yeah, I'm still wondering about the clutch line replacement. The bike's had a bug with electrical, draining battery despite my putting in a new battery and a new rectifier, so I didn't get it back for serious riding until about a month ago. But instantly found the new clutch line did for the feel wh...

Re: 1990 Paso 906 - clutch line, brake lines

ps.. when you mentioned it, the fluid actually was very dark. Your and the others' advise made me think that if I screwed up, well I35's a bitch here, got to thinking on the safe side thanks to you guys. Thanks

Re: 1990 Paso 906 - clutch line, brake lines

Thank you very much you guys... this has been a difficult (stressful) overhaul, and the dollars have certainly added up. I took your advice and did this additional update (we've been working on it close to a year now; I find most of the parts based on what the mechanic says I need, and he does the w...

1990 Paso 906 - clutch line, brake lines

Hi, this is my first post here. I tried picking parts for the 906 I bought recently but had trouble figuring out what other year/model parts were compatible, so I found someone who's pretty familiar with Pasos to work on it. But while some things I recognize are immediate action problems, he gets in...
