Whose Paso is this anyways?

Post by fredskidoo »

I love the paint on this bike! Obviously i.e. my avatar. :thumbup:
Does anyone know who the owner is? I'd like to talk to them about the paint.
The photo is in the gallery. Of course its titled the "unidentified Paso"
Here is the link to find it:

NOTE:The photo in question was in the "old" ducatipaso image gallery - I'll update the missing photo from my PC soon . . .

I test rode a 906 just like this one in Perth, Australia about 18 months ago. It had been fully mod'ed with 17's, 40mm Delortos and a number of other things that I can think of right now.

Looks identical actually, down to and including the decals.

I agree,Both Gray and Black suit the Paso lines very well, Even the yellow looks sharp! :thumbup: :mrgreen:
Ducati,making mechanics out of riders since 1946
There's no problem so bad that a little fixing can't make it worse! : )
If it ain't broke keep fixin it till it is

Have posted photos of your 907 here? If not, would you?

Thanks, Ethan

The owner of this Paso is a guy from the Netherlands called Iggo. Few years ago he had a webpage with a friend who had a 750 Monster, but now I can't find it. I like this Paso very much too :thumbup: :mrgreen:

I thought about Igo`s stealth Paso, too but i doubt it was exported to the US. There are a few flat black Pasos out there.

Possibly you may have the bookmark still - The web page may be found using the Wayback machine - an internet archive. Here is the url:http://web.archive.org If not maybe some more details and I'll join you in the search.

I guess I misunderstood, I thought that was a pic of your bike but it isn`t.
Waybackmachine only works if you have the old/dead link, that was the tricky part.
But Igo had posted it in the old mailing list years back, so here it is

Mystery solved!

I found Igo, sent him an e-mail and this was his response:

Hello Ethan,

Dat bike was sold already about 7 years ago... But it was an nice one...

The colour was original Ducati Black from the Monster model (non shining)

Regards, igo


So anyone familiar with Ducati's paint codes?
