Looks great!

Are you going to paint it when you're done, or just polish it? Seems a shame to cover it up with paint...

Hi Stefano,
I'm Italian, but I'm writing in English so all can understand.
Do you have made the tank by yourself?
I would be very interested.
Ciao
Francesco

Propably very difficult to polish enough good looking, but anyway very intresting modification to Paso

Maybe can fit to silver colour Paso, but cant imagine that with Red, Blue, or Pearl White colour... How about dashboard, Is it from "Il Monstro"? Surely everybody want to know approximately price of that tank, cause many Paso tanks are leaking fuel currently ???

I'm going to paint the tank in red color except for a line in the upper part of it that will be polished.
Now I don't know the price of the tank because it is not completely finished.
The price will be about 650-800 euro.
The tank has been manufactured by craftsman.

* rear sprocket wheel in ergal
* new positioned damper regulation

* Steering half weights

Nice to hear, Stefano !

No need to be worried about corrosion in the tank anymore

Btw, did U have to do ANY modifications to Monster CF rear hugger to fit it to Paso ?????

I start to search CF Monster 900 hugger now for next modifcation to my 750 Paso

Looks great, but wondering little, cause i have normal Oscam wheels and that can be different size, as Yours Marvic in rear, so i hope, that it fit also with Oscams/Michelin combination.

The wheels and tires size is the same for Marvic and Oscam (160/60/16).
Have a good work.
Bye.

Hello Stefano. Your Paso is very special one

. Is complicated to install a SS dashboard? :screwy: Did you have problems with connect pins? I like very much Veglia white clocks
