750/906/907 fairing changes

Post by redpaso »

I was reading a test on the 907 when it was just released (yes I will upload it soon, I promise :roll: ). THe test was by Sir (?) Alan Cathcart who is still the most respected motorcycle journalist/tester in the world & I noticed he commented on the 907 having a very different look due to the 17" rims raising it off the ground & also the slimmer fairing design on the side panels that reduced the baulky look of the 906 around the engine.

Now I am very confused because from what i can see the side panels are identical to those of the 906.

I know the 906 differs from 750 in the side panels because they stop under the mirrors on the 750 & the mirrors are included in the screen panel which I assume is a real hassle to get off. The 906 just has the panel across the front headlight/screen area. I know the 907 differs in the Screen as it has the "scoop & deflector" that are directing wind over the shoulders more effectively but I can see no changes to other panels.

Has Cathcart got it wrong or am I losing my mind :screwy: Are there any panel changes other thanthe screen area on all three Paso/i.e. models?

I think someone should supply us with one of each, quite possible in every color combination - just in case - so we can do a thorough, in-depth study. It might take several years.

I'm willing to offer my services. Please send one of each to ...

Happy to comply! I'll just need the standard waiver and release forms, documentation noting lender as sole beneficiary on a mandatory insurance policy :eek: , a small deposit for the fairings, a rather large sum to buy a truck to deliver them to you :D ... Once these :laugh: minor formalities are overcome we can see about obtaining them for you. ;-)
