Hi guys,
I acquired a set of the aftermarket Oscam 16" Paso wheels years ago in anticipation of doing a 906 project. At this point I don't see it happening, so instead the proceeds will go to finish some things on my ST4s.

They need a set of generic 8mm nuts and bolts to fasten the hubs to the wheel halves (just a couple in each wheel right now for photo purposes) and the rear wheel is missing the left bearing(also generically available). They've never been used and are very close to perfect condition.

MikeM would be useful for people to know where you are in the world and what price you are asking also what tyre sizes will fit. No good for me although they do look pretty.

I'm in Colorado and I'd like to get $2,000 USD for them. Not exactly cheap, I know, but for someone with a really nice 750 or 906, they'd be a unique finishing touch to their bike. I've only ever seen two Pasos with these wheels- one I saw in 1988 in Daytona at the dealer there and the other is a white 750 Limited in the L.A. area that belongs to someone I know.
They are the stock wheel sizes for the 750 and 906 and so take the Michelin A59X and M59X tires. They're probably not much lighter than the stock wheels, but they do look pretty cool.
I see in one of the discussions about tires, there's a link to an italian website that has the Michelins available, so it appears they're still around in places. I suspect these specific tires are easier to find in europe as surely more of the Ducatis with the 16" wheels were sold in the european markets than in the U.S.

aren't these the wheels of the Bimota DB1 ?

I doubt they are still available even in EU market.
Howewer, very nice rims, but the price is the same as a fair Paso.
Ciao

There's a used pair of these wheels listed on EBay US as of today
