looks like a lot of work, why did you keep the 16" front if you changed the rear wheel ?
What I personally don`t like that much is the exhaust, but I guess tastes are different :)

Definitely an interesting look. :thumbup: You can remove the little rubber pad on the right frame rail. ;)

As some cheap suggestions, I'd continue with the black-and-gold scheme and paint the front wheel gold (if you plan on keeping the 16"). Painting/powder-coating the footpeg/rearset assemblies gold, and adding some gold pin-striping to the tank and maybe the clutch cover would probably look pretty good, too......Removing or painting the passenger peg brackets in black may keep the left one from looking like it's just stuck on there as an afterthought.....put a gold "Pantah" sticker on the horizontal timing belt cover.

Actually, it looks pretty good. I'm generally a stickler for stock appearances, but I think it looks nice. How does it handle with the 16" front and 17" rear wheels?

The plus of 4 cv comes from the entire 2 in 1 exhaust 42 to 46 mm and the muffler very free, mikuni carbs with bigger noodles air jet etc etc, bigger "home made" air box with open filter ,and polished air intake carbs....
The bases as you can see is a 750 paso of 88. :choo: :choo:

I agree with Stelios, there are very many bikes to butcher.
A Ducati Monster would be great for that!!!

I don't think i make vandalism to my bike.... i restored it totally from a precedent owner that trashed it also in original way, i'm not a butcher but a ducati lover...i make only my bike like i want and; i think i respect ducati brand...it's not a streetfighter north european style with flashing paint or orrible sticker...when i bought my bike and i saw it's orrible state i make my bike more rideable more powerful and more lighter, this for me is passion and love for a bike not vandalism....

Don't worry Piero,
the tastes are different.
You aren't a vandal, it was very valuable that you saved the Paso by the wrecker, no matter I love the Paso for its unique shape.

just to understand, it was said before that in Italy you cannot change things on your bike without permission that is hard to get. How is a bike like this then possible ?

Here in Italy, everyone who does any modifications on its bike, does it at own risk.
The public authority does not allow any modification to the bike if not approved by the manufacturer, or the part fitted is specifically homologated for the vehicle.
I also, who only fitted a 2 - 1 Conti, risk a fine or some recovery by the insurance in case of accident.
Of course, Piero risks something more than me, because its modifications are more showy than the mine.
No matter, the next year I will have to do the periodic test compulsory by law, so I will have to fit the stock exhaust back.
