Re: And, it finally happened ...

If you want to match the paint, take the bike or a panel to an automotive paint store. They can use a spectrometer to match the paint perfectly. You can order new decals from England and are not that expensive. I think I paid about $80 US for the entire set but you can order a specific one and just...

Re: And, it finally happened ...

I went through all this when I top sided my Paso two years ago thanks to the 14 year old slick tires. Like the ones plasmid ist still using ... ? If I was going faster and slid I guess you could call it a low side. I was going about 10-15km/h and coming to a full stop, when the guy turned directly ...

Re: And, it finally happened ...

At the base of the breather is a separator valve meant to allow the oil vapors in the crankcase to settle out of the air. When you put the engine on its side oil leaks trough the valve and out the hose and ends up in the big black tank in front of the battery which is meant to collect what oil does...

Re: And, it finally happened ...

left side..? Wild guess: the spot where the cables run trough the alternator cover..? Some oil also came out of the oil breather tube. That hose is not in the best shape. Can someone who knows this stuff, explain why it dumped that oil through the breather tube. It dumps it if there is too much cra...

Re: And, it finally happened ...

Since gasoline was dumped from the overflow on the exhaust,
I was wondering if any Paso's caught on fire like this?

With Ferrari's, and I guess other mid-engine cars, it's quite a common occurrence
to end up with a big fire from gasoline on a hot exhaust.

Re: And, it finally happened ...

left side..? Wild guess: the spot where the cables run trough the alternator cover..? Have to wait for the insurance guy to inventory the damage, then I'll pull the fairing. There was some oil on the front exhaust. Otherwise I couldn't really see anything. But it's fine mechanically. After swapping...

Re: And, it finally happened ...

PS: There was a bit of fuel on the street, but also some oil.

Any idea where the oil would come from?

And, it finally happened ...

Never dropped a Paso, but today it happened. Was coming to a 3 way, with my street being at about 60 deg to the main street, and a 20 year old cut the turn, coming in my lane. Braked hard and he missed me by a palm or so, but the bike started leaning and it went far enough that I couldn't hold it. S...

And you thought Paso mirrors are crazy

For anyone who thought Paso mirrors are crazy.
Classic cars with fender mirrors look awkward, but this is on a whole new level.
