Re: New kid on the paso
The screws available from sportbikesbolts while nice are not the originals,nor do they fit as well as the originals.They are very well made,come with all the pieces you need and not at a bad price,they are just a different style than the stockers. Wellnuts are identical.
I have not as yet tried the screws from Gowenloch. I do plan to .
As far a the color goes, Again POR-15 chassis black dresses up all the black bits on a Paso just fine.
While on the subject, most of the rubber parts used else where on a Paso can be sourced from either McmasterCarr or your local auto supply. Covers like for the rear brake switch can be found from Bevel Heaven in the US, Gowenloch in AU
I am sure G can provide sources for those of you in the EU if needed
Additionally, all this info can easily be found in the FAQ or by doing a search here.

Thanks Higgy, it's true that you can find a lot of info if I start searching the site, but it is more lazy
to ask and get live answers and also it is more sociable
. I am sure there are many people who have never wrote a line and just browse the info they need and then log off, in my opinion this is not nice as well.
By the way life with the Ducati is not boring at all, today I lost my speedometer . I unscrewed the cable turned the wheel and the cable turns . I turned the ""thing"" behind the speedometer by hand and the speedometer works . WTF is going... on any ideas!!!!

Re: New kid on the paso
Take a close look at the cable and the speedo head where the cable goes.
There are basically two possibilities.
The cable and receiver are worn
or the cable is too short
If the cable and receiver are worn sometimes a new cable can help. If the receiver is worn it will need repair.
The cable can be short if it is not fully installed at either end.
It is pretty rare for a speedo to quit altogether but it does happen
