Re: replacing & tensioning belts - food for thought - maybe

Hi G, I know but are there different qualities from Dayco and Gates or do they have only 1 quality? :shock: Also is Gates better or similar to the Dayco quality? Why did you change the hexagonal teeth to rounded? :?: Where do they come from (monster)? Just interested to know if it makes sense to cha...

Re: replacing & tensioning belts - food for thought - maybe

Hi G, To be honest, it scared me a bit reading this :wacko: but I have another question related to this topic: Which belt (brand and type) did you use? :?: Contemporary timing belts should last longer than those of the 70-ties and 80-ties. Need to change mine, so interesting to know which ones to or...

Re: my Paso - a never ending (love) story ...

Hi Gerhard, Looks beautiful but could you be so kind to post some overall pics of your bike? :oops: Having seen all these details makes me wonder how she currently looks like. What are the items you want to tackle should the exhaust project been finished? :wacko: Also wonder how the weber runs? Have...

Re: New member - in need of some advice ...

Both are interesting (pitty Menton is a bit far :shock: otherwise would like to see it 6.500 km :wacko: !!!)
Wil certainly contact them.
1 question though: I see 2 different types of standard mufflers .... what is the story behind it?
I only knew the Silentium ones (suite the Paso best).

Re: New member - in need of some advice ...

Danke Gerhard,

I' ve seen them, find anything over €3.000 a bit steep (for a 27 year old bike).
Also would like to keep the mileage under 30.000 if possible.

Wil see ..... :thumbup:

Re: New member - in need of some advice ...

Have taken a look yesterday at an early 750 with original floating discs & Ohlins shock, but was not the one for me (was noto very well maintained, so would cost me to much time and money to get in a nearly new condition). But I think I really want to go for a 750 notwithstanding it might have t...

Re: New member - in need of some advice ...

I do have experience with SD (Bimota) and am very impressed with the knowledge they have. Also the P&P ist just marginal more expensive to Belgium. I did read that the FZ750 headlight is often used as a replacement. Are both the 85-87 as also 89-94 useable or are they different to each other? SD...

Re: New member - in need of some advice ...

Hi Nick, You say that the 750 is the smallest of the 3 versions, I assumed the 906 has the same frame and "plastics" ? I thought the 906 was merely a 750 with just a bigger 900 cc watercooled engine, a 6 speed gearbox and a different paint job (white wheels and idem white underside of the ...

New member - in need of some advice ...

Hi, let me briefly introduce myself. I live in Belgium and currently I do not have a Paso (do have a.o. a Ducati Monster 796 & Bimota SB4s) but I'm considering to buy and restore a Paso which I know from when I was young. My main question is: which of the 3 versions (750, 906 or 907) is the most...
