1988 Paso RH mirror in pearl white needed! Please help

Post by Vince »

Hi to all,
I was attempting to change a tire and I accidentally dropped my bike!
Does anyone have a RH mirror in pearl white for a 1988 Paso LTD for sale?
I am 21 and paying my dues!
Thanks to all,
Vince

The OEM mirrors are available via ebay and they are not so cheap, otherwise, there are the ones from cagiva freccia new worth about 40€ but the producer don't ship a single piece.

By now, there are very few OEM mirrors on eBay and the prices are very high.

The Freccia ones have to be fitted to the Paso and however you'll need to do the paintwork because you'll never find a stock white mirror....

I have a new UNPAINTED mirror that I bought a few years ago. I think I paid about $100 for it.

Sorry to hear about your tip over. It happens to all of us once in a while.

Hi to all,
I believe I can save the the mirror body, but I will need a replacement lens- any ideas?
also can anyone recommend some touch-up paint in the pearl white?
Thanks, Vince :thumbup:

Vince - know where you are now mate well done. :thumbup:

The lens covers are still available from Ducati and there is also someone on the this site that has a few check the search function - don't go the ebay route as they are to expensive on there. With respect to the colour your local motor vehicle paint factors should be able to match that for you and get it sorted into an aerosol form for you to use at least.

These mirrors are solid lumps and can be saved so you are doing the right thing by repairing it.

The Pearl that is used now on Ducati's is a near perfect match so the products from Color Rite should work. A safe bet though might be to take your mirror with you to a dealer and hold it up next to one of the new Pearl colored bikes and see how close it is as your paint may be a bit yellowed over the past 23 years... and the fresh paint will show up brighter than the rest of the bike.

best is you paint both mirros, so even if there is a slight mismatch to the rest it won`t bother you as much as having a single mirror with a different colour.
