There are two plugs on its inner side that sit in rubber grommets on the bottom side of the tank which is why it's still holding when the two bolts are removed. Anyone got any spare of these grommets? My bike lost them before getting to me and i have a work around in place. if i had a proper one i ...

While G is correct ( above ) he left out the best bit :D .

yeah. +1 ... they look very similar dimensions... your drawing (nice detail on the drawing by the way) has the 40mm caliper slightly leading but i wouldn't have thought that would a huge difference?

cost me 3K to get mine repainted, good on you. :D Yeah, that's about what i was quoted too... and of course if i paid that it would be a better job than i have done (though i am still to de-nib and buff yet). when you learn from trade professionals you also learn what to look for in the quality of ...

Hi all, I've been doing a spray painting night course for a little while now... and my first major project was to change the 907 from crashed (previous owner) and red to blue (all my bikes for the last 15 years have been blue)... my phone camera doesn't do the bike justice (especially in the full su...

I can't speak from the top of mind for all models but the ecu sensor is separate to the dash sensor...

Wow ... were they really $15k new? Assuming that's NZD, that's still $10k USD by today's values, anyway. And for late 80's, that seems like a lot! In Australia the importer was selling the 750 for more than AU$15K new... it was serious exotica, only a HD (from the same sole "independent" ...

Though it would be nice if once we all bought Paso's they became a sought after forgotten era classic and worth $50k.

oh lordy me... that's almost what they cost new in the 1980's. To be fair it's clean and tidy so they must be hoping that someone sees it and fall in love rather than someone that is looking for one...

And if you really get stuck you can get fibreglass or carbon fibre copies from Airtech - in Vista CA

crazy money if it goes for that but will be interesting to see if it does sell. Aussie Paso's are about double the price of the rest of the world... When i got mine I thought long and hard about importing one from the EU, or cheaper from the US. even including shipping it was a close call. No doubt...
