It is with great sad sadness that I have to announce that I am letting go of my beloved paso. she is a 88 750. It looks like I am going to trade her for an 1995 fzr 1000. I hate to do it but I have been wanting a liter bike for some time now. the fzr needs some love but the 150 horsepower will make up for it. I know that the fzr is a great bike and it will let me go faster :evil: but there is a part of me that feels sick at the thought of letting my baby go.
Well it will be an fzr for me for now. but you had better belive that I will have another paso sometime next summer.

with much regret...

Pikey - was your machine at the Vintage Motorcycle Days in Mid-Ohio last year? I recall seeing one similarly equipped (Ferracci pipes - nice!) - but I don't remember if it had black oil cooler panels or not. Either way, sorry to hear you're parting ways ... I would say keep her, because I'm a huge advocate for "one can never have too many bikes" but that's just me ... ;)

Are you trading her in, or selling her outright? If selling outright, let me know and I'll move this thread over to the Classifieds ...

It looks like it might be an outright trade. not so sure. does the aforementioned deal sound good? let me know what you think.
