Post by jetboy »

there is an f1 for sale in the san francisco bay area.

on the other hand, i found f1 style fairings for pretty cheap.

OOhh, Aahh. A lovely tri-colore F1.
Heard one go past me on Saturday. (i was on the bicycle) and it sounded lovely.

The Air Tech fairings are generally pretty good quality. Certainly lighter than the stock. They come undrilled, so you have a supreme chance of totally screwing your brand new fairings.

Its a tough choice between the F1 fairing, or the SuperMono faring. But I still think the old 70's Sport fairing would look swell too.

Cheers,

When I see the prices of the F1s, I often think the F1 was quite cheaper than the Paso.
But now...

Paso is the best. I wish I can have one. I'm just looking at the pictures and it is very attractive.

local ducati shop has an 87 Paso for sale-- i think they want 2700. it looks pretty stock- but somehow they fit metzeler tires. Guy said they had to do a bit of modification to the fender/faring to get the tires on but that it worked on the stock rims. Im wondering if they can do the same for my sport -

also they put some flat side mikuni's in place of the webber. it was a dark dark blue-- almost black. which i wasnt sure was factory-- usually red or a true blue?

i havn't got the cash to buy, but im tempted to pretend i do just to take her out for a test drive.
