Re: new Paso owner
So, BirdDuck, where exactly in the grand ol USA do you live that you can't find Ducati parts?
After e-bay and Craigslist, there's ducati breakers like Nick Anglada https://www.facebook.com/UsedDucatiParts and GuzziTech.
Everything is possible to find on the internet, of course patience is required, and a paypal account. Some parts have taken me several years to find, like my 300mm cast iron full floating Brembo rotors, new in a box.
But if you are interested in a set of stock Mikunis and a stage 1 kit, drop me a line. they are in the garage some where, and I'm on the Dellorto wagon, so I won't be using them.
Cheers, Phil

Re: new Paso owner

Re: new Paso owner
has anyone used the round slide mikuni carbs? there is tones of those around for cheap. i believe they are mostly off two stroke applications, i thought i have seen them on some other models of ducs maybe the bevel engines?

Re: new Paso owner
He will be getting the boots, manifolds, stock carbs, Stage 1 Dynojet kit, and a throttle if I can find it. After owning it for 5 years, and taking up shelf space, I'm glad to make some room
I'll be making some more room in the coming weeks as I might be moving shortly, and need to start cleaning up.
Cheers, Phil

Even better with some Dyna Coils and a relay inline.

Re: new Paso owner
wired it up last night. direct power from the batt to a relay with on with key on. every connection is soldered and shrink wrapped, 8ga wire feeding the coils juice .. the electric engineer for ducati must have been on acid or something with how all the systems are run :S
