i just picked up a 750 paso, it has mikuni flatslides in it, it also has a fuel filter/fuel pump setup.
it stalls after a few minutes, or after coming off acceleration. i'm assuming it's starving for fuel. can i eliminate fuel pump/filter, and just run gravity feed?
it also appears carbs aren't sync'ed.
always wanted a paso, neat bike, but as i am quickly learning, all that bodywork is a pain.
new paso (to me...) stalling..

Isn't it just so much fun getting to know a new toy. I am sure it will not be your only dilema. I hope it is but as you will discover the Paso is an idyiosyncratic beast that likes to have you fiddling with it & it is all worth it as the grin from pointing a Paso through your favourite set of twisties is only matched by the grin you get from the attention that they command. Even when surrounded by other exotics, people will want to ask you about your Paso so it is always good to have stories to tell of how you have worked/sorted/restored your treasured beast.

You shouldn't need a fuel pump. My Paso has Dellorto's and is gravity fed without any problems. Sync the carbs, that will really help.nyabinghi wrote:i just picked up a 750 paso, it has mikuni flatslides in it, it also has a fuel filter/fuel pump setup.
