A New Owner

Post by englishstiv »

Hi there folks, After Sunday I will be in my own bit of Garage Heaven as I shall be collecting my 907IE (unless the seller does the dirty on me before then?)

It's going to need a bit of tlc and there are a few bits that will need repairing (the odd panel) . Belts etc to change and all round service for the UK road test.

But fingers crossed I'll be on the road enjoying the bike by May's start.

If I smile any wider my face will split in half.

Look forward to chatting with you all and maybe begging for some parts?????

Well to start with it needs a right hand mirror/indicator and has a nearside front mid (or is it called the lower panel) that has been crudely repaired.

I will be adapting the mirrors with another similar type and will refrabricate the brackets as required - eing not a purist I intend to use the bike.

Looking to use /adapt the 749/999 mirrors or similar - also checking out a few car types that might suit.

Thank you for the welcome.

Take a look on eBay for the mirror and avoid any not revesible modification.
Enjoy your baby!

Please try to find proper mirrors. There have been some very FUGLY attempts at using other types. The PASO is a singular design and other items really clash with the overall design. There is a picture thread on the site somewhere with some horrid pictures. Mirrors from the dealer or factory are unobtanium. Ebay is the only marketplace for them.
