Will this fit a 907? Size of wheel is correct 5.5"x17" but not sure of axle size. Anyone know? The swingarm looks similar.
I already have a 907 swingarm for my 750 conversion to 17" wheels but need to find some wheels.
Thanks!

I think, its just same, as Ducati have used sooo long time in many modells,like Monsters, SS, 851/888, etc.... I havent measured axles, but i am quite sure of it.... Btw, older 750 SS had 4,5" in rear, like maybe smaler Monsters also....
I have also hole 907IE swingarm with ALL stuff waiting that 17" conversion, but i pray, that no need to make that conversion. My 17" rear wheel is from 851 and front 17" is from 750 SS.
Btw, harder to find good front wheel, cause near all crashed bikes dont have anymore front wheel....

Annti,
Thanks for the reply. Still looking for a front wheel. Think I may have found a rear wheel. I also have the 4.5"x17" wheel already. Just collecting parts at the moment.
Thanks again!

I think, that 4,5" is better to 750 Paso, than 5,5"(what i also have)

Anyway, keep me updated, when You start to make modification... I think, just that 907IE swing is best way to make conversion to 750 Paso...

Antti,
not talking about handling, a 160/60 on a 4,5" looks really poor on a Paso. Although 5,5" with 180/55 is possible in the original P750 swingarm I`d personally consider 5,5" with 170/60.
My dealer and I had tried this longer time ago as I planned the conversion and it seemd the best compromise in feasibility and looks.

I was talking ONLY about handling, sorry, that i didnt mention it... :ugh: If thinking about "look of Paso", then have to stay 16" wheels as long, as possible !!!!! AND in LOW PROFILE Michelins surely... :laugh: .. and 907 looks "enough good" with 17" wheels, cause it have longer swingarm, than 750 and 906...

...and surely i see better opinion to use 907 swing to conversion, than keep normal 750 swingarm!
