Marc,

I have those wheels on my 750 paso. There is a thread "new tires on paso" that has good photos of the bike with the wheels and some alternate tires that I've chosen. Congratulations on your purchase. Rear brake disk and caliper hanger is from the 851 Strada as well on my bike.

You can see more pictures of the wheels on the bike at my web gallery in the Paso album:

Best, Randy.

Thank you so much Francesco. I am so fortunate to have this beautiful machine.http://forums.ducatipaso.org/posting.ph ... &f=1&t=730#
I was finally able to fit new brake light switches to both the front and rear. Ducati came through for me actually finding original replacement parts.http://forums.ducatipaso.org/posting.ph ... &f=1&t=730#
