New owner and a sad story

[Rock]

So I picked up a 1990 906



I had the bike 2 days and had a little old lady back into it.

any leads on body work and a tank?

[grande futuro]

the two oil cooler covers on my bike come from this outfit http://www.airtech-streamlining.com/duc ... 988-89.htm they are made of plastic not fiberglass but once painted they look ok they should have everything except the tank

[jcslocum]

Where are you located?? Ferracci in Philly had complete blue bodywork for a 906 a few years ago sitting on a shelf out back in the shop.

mirrors, front screen and front side panels are fibreglass and therefore repairable with some effort

[Mc tool]

doesnt look to bad to me Did you give her a good kicking , or did you just want to ? I spose now would be a brilliant time to do something about the colour

[Rock]

When it happened I was in Norfolk, VA the bike was in Baltimore, MD. So I didn't get a chance to kick her. But her insurance will do do it for me. Thanks for the FBF info will call them today.

Been watching Craigslist and e-bay for stuff..... depending on what happens the bike will stay the stock color or go to flat black

If you want to know about the quality of the replacement body work, here ya go

Now it takes a lot of work to get them to look this way,don't even think it is a simple bolt on job. What I have is authentic right down to the labels!
I know cuz I have 2 sets of original body work, by the way one is the blue you are looking for. I could possibly be convinced to part with the blue ones,they are complete but need work and tlc. But I have no interest in cash, strictly trade. I can post pictures if any one is interested. I will ship them tomorrow to anyone has a weber dcnf with tall 4.5 auxiliary venturis

That`s a damn pretty bike, higgy!

Higgy, I'm not interested in the bodywork, but I have the original weber that came on mine. Would there be any reason it would have the 4.5 aux venturis you're looking for? If so, how would I know? The carb has been in a box since I bought my Paso and I literally have never looked at it in detail. I'd pull them off and let you have them if they're on mine.

From what I understand the 40 dcnf all came with the 4.5 auxiliary venturi's which came on earlier 750's The 44 mainly 3.5 and on the later 750 and all 906. Can you get the serial number from the carb?
here is a picture of the 3.5 with its markings

Are they Airtech panels?
Ciao

[higgy]

according to the previous owner,he dropped the bike in a parking lot on his way home from purchasing it .
they are much lighter than the glass bodywork and are good quality, the fit depends on the installation.

[persempre907]

They look very good as well as the paintwork !!!!
Ciao

[higgy]

I have two sets of the original body works,there are some minor differences, but then the two sets of glass bodyworks have minor differences as well. I really prefer the plastic, takes paint very well and not prone to cracking or squeeking like the glass. Also much lighter than glass. the only downside I see,glass will be easier to repair should they end up in pieces

As You say, fiberglass fairings are very easy to fix compared to carbon fibre ones.... Btw, those Paso fairings are not "real" fiberglass, but some very strange "mixed material"... Anyway they are easy to fix with fiberglass!!! I mean, that fiberglass fits perfect with original Paso fairings material... I had spend huge amount of time with Paso fairings fixing...
