Ducati Paso vs Cagiva Freccia MIRRORS - differences

Post by Truten »

Hi!

I have opportunity to buy Cagiva Freccia mirrors and I have doubt if they will fit Paso 750 without modifications. Are there any differences between this two types of mirror? The main problem is that I haven't seen them in real, only in a picture.

Greetings
Peter

Hi Peter,

we have a search function ;)
The Freccia mirrors look very similar from the distance but have numerous differences. To mount them you`ll need to drill 3 holes and carefully grind their outer edge if you want them to sit properly in the recess of the headlight fairing.
Some pictures:

Well, i own a 907 and a freccia C12R, the freccia has the bolt-on attachment-type, while the 907 has the click`n snap attachment. But don`t some of the pasos have the click`n snap attachment as well?
On the first glance it seemed to me to be the only relevant difference (except the more "wobbly" plastic used for the freccia-mirror)

Next week i could make some pics for comparison....
92` Ducati 907 i.e. - ST3-Conversion --> Burned down with my barn
78` Ducati 900 SS - Bevel --> Sved her by risking my life
90` Cagiva Freccia C12R - Paso`s smaller sister --> Burned down with my barn
86` Ducati 750 Paso
96` Cagiva 750 AC Elefant

Not some, they were all like that.
Pictures are in the link above. If you directly compare an original and a FAR mirror you will discover many small differences. However overall they look quite similar.
