Strange rear light lens?
Can anybody explane thiskind rear light lens, what is in ebay now:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ducati-P ... 6422QQrdZ1
I have never seen such It looks totally different, than "Euro modell". I havent ever seen inside things of USA modell, so is this connected some way to USA rear light ??? or......what? Seems, that i have still some things to learn about Pasos :laugh:

I am 110% sure, that USA modell "all red" lens is just samekind, as EU modell, with yellow blinkers, cause i have changed such just with one Florida guy from this Ducatipaso.org site, and i have both modells now, but this in ebay looks totally different! Look carefully, especially lower part of lens. .... or am i totally sick? It can also be so, cause i have been in hard flu now about 2 weeks

It CAN be, that i have too much fever still ! But looks little different that rear light/brake part of lens (higher).... Btw, i have seen in internet long time ago some samekind lens in some Paso "prototype", or something, like that. That came to my mind just.... anyway, this is not so important, but i only noticed, that center part of lens is higher, than normal Paso lens.... I am virgin, so all thiskind things burn my brains very much :laugh:

You are quite right Antti.
That would not fit my bike as the top of mine is flat not raised like that one. I do need one though as mine is rather beat up. I have an all red one (USA) however in NZ we’re meant to have orange indicators.
Having another look at it the raised bit in the middle may fit under the back locker and would not be visible once on the bike.

Seems, that Ducati have still, or make still those front blinker lenses, but very many USA guys want to change "all red"Usa modell rear taillight lens to Euro modell with yellow blinkers, that they can get rid of those awfull looking rear turn signals(and put bulb holdwers inside taillight).... Pasos styling is designed with ONLY blinkers integrated to rear light system

There are (at least)2 different rear lights, those with blinkers(EU modell) and without inside blinkers(USA modell) and fitting to lens is totally same, so "You" can change lenses easily, without any modifications.
As normally, we Europeans want "USA all red" lens, cause its quite rare here and surely You want with yellow blinkers, cause its rare there in NZ and Australia. Both lenses have same totally same numbers stamped, so easy to change lenses, BUT "your" country rules makes, WHAT is legal and what is not legal. Here in Finland many USA cars imported to Finland have red blinkers, and they say, that its ok, if "all red" blinkers have those "EU needed numbers"(like Paso lens have luckily!!!), but surely it depends about local rules... and here polices seem to NOT have enough time to check such things in traffic, so i think, no any broblem here to use all red Usa style lens in Paso. But better fist check thing about local rules
Btw, i changed just my "Euro lens" to "USA lens" with one guy here in this site...
