Getting back to your 1/3/15 post you seemed confident about eliminating the coils. Using the good cylinder find a second coil that works, seems like you have spares. And get it on the other cylinder. It seems like you are second guessing your self, just don't want to see you going in circles on your...

Thank guys for the interest, and Phil I will follow up with you on this. To make the lens thicker means not doing hand made moulds which is the least expensive. So what I'm going to do is have a local machinist do a laser dimension read on a lens so he can give me an accurate quote on producing dies...

Since you restored a spark at idle with the original rear trigger coil. And bypassed the the bikes wiring to get primary ignition coil voltage. Similar to what Derek did how about the wire from the trigger coil back to the CDI. At the least try new wire once it is out of the engine case. Or really b...

Higgy, you missed my point. The cylinder compression does increase from start up cranking speed verses high RPM operation. Thus a wide plug gap may work at idle but not with added fuel and higher compression at high RPM. I have no disagreement about precious metal plugs. It seems to me a lot of peop...

With stock coils you should not increase the plug gap. The atmosphere in the combustion chamber is such that there is less resistance enabling a wide gap at say cranking/starting speed. But with increased compression and fuel at higher RPM the resistance is subtaintially higher. I would make the gap...

CDI boxes

Sorry if I missed that you tried it, but have you swapped the ignition modules to see if the rear misfires instead?

It seems like there is a web site for alot of older bikes out there for the go to guy who knows everything about them, has used parts to sell. And some will address inherent design flaws buy producing aftermarket parts even. Some of the bikes to mind are Honda CBs. A lot more built but much older to...

Does anyone have a Euro taillight if even just the lens for sale?

It is going to combined with another whole but non running Paso that had no title that was sitting in a wharehouse of a bike shop since 1996!!!! that is supposed to have terminal engine damage. This frame, engine, and parts have a title. RJC didn't mention it in the thread. Good for me he didn't as ...

I got it! Rjc is a great Ducati enthusiast to make this offer on the forum. And he still rides another newer Ducati. Thanks rjc!

Can anyone tell me what was done to improve the valve train one year to the next with the gold rocker covers. And is everything interchanable between the two years? Other than the visual differences , seat color, grab handle, triple clamp, and body decals is there any good reason one should wait to ...

There is a company in California USA that can cut the rim off your wheel, then weld on a taller shoulder rim to make your wheels 17 inch. You can have the weld polished out, or leave it visible. I assume you would have to repaint the wheel because of the welding being so close to the spokes, I don't...

I'm interested in your bike, I saw it on EBay. Is that a dent in the fuel tank? And what is the swing arm modification?

Is the Paso still available?
