If you look at it with half closed eyes it's not bad at all, even the graphics are sort of OK, (the Japanese character on the oil cooler cover means 'tiger') but I agree with Francesco, it's an Italian bike, why bother with Japanese characters. Heck, it would have been more appropriate to have Roman numerals don't you think....... Paso 750= Paso DCCL Paso 906= Paso CMVI Paso 907= Paso CMVII but then maybe not...! The rear light diodes need re-working, and the photos don't show enough detail of the headlight. I've always thought the standard Paso headlight is plug ugly, and I've seen a photo of a twin headlight conversion with fibre glass surround which (I think) is a big improvement; NOT to be confused with the FZ750 unit which improves the headlight's performance, but not the looks(same outer cover with twin light reflectors inside). I reckon if you actually saw this bike riding past you on the street, as you sat outside on a warm sunny Italian afternoon sipping your espresso and admiring the girls, you'd think it looked pretty damned good!! |

Hi everybody, primarily, I would want excuse me with Jules.  I didn't want to offend him. I have a great respect for the Japan and Japanese people :thumbup:
But, I will not put "DUCATI CMVII i.e." on the fairing of my bike, even if it could look good. :toofar: Of course, if I wanted a bike with odd graphics, I would have bought an Aprilia or a Jap bike. I meant to tell that I think that our bikes are masterpieces of design, so I will not make any change in the look of my bike. Ciao |

I don't mind it, I am pretty sure I have read more about this bike somewhere, maybe on the Paso Japan site so it would almost make sense that the Graphics etc are japanese. http://www.fruits.ne.jp/~paso/index.html You will also find these interesting Paso's there. An interesting interpretation. |

Hi Francesco Actually, I'm not Japanese, I'm from Scotland  ,so don't worry I certainly wasn't offended! Also, please excuse my British sense of 'humour' putting Roman numerals on an Italian bike was my weak idea of a joke !
Hi redpaso The two special bodied Pasos in the photos were specials made by the Japanese Ducati importer at that time, Murayama Motors (no longer the official importers) Not sure why they were made in the first place, as they're certainly interesting but not so beautiful......?
