Boy I forgot about those. I remember Marsh MC in CT. had one on the floor. Now you can cruise the bars. Get some Italian leather chaps and some fringe to hang off the handle bars. :beer:

Yes, that is fairly rare. It's nice to see one that is not is such a state of dis-repair that it is better off as parts. I bet you can take that to a Ducati rally and have several people try to argue with you that it was never made by Ducati. :mrgreen:

So what size wheels and what is the carburetor? Paso owners need to know. :truck:

Paso owners will need nothing from the Indy range!!

It has Bing carbs just like the boxer BMW's of the era. For tires, it has an 18" front and a 15" rear.

Hey Jon!

Nice addition to the family. Good luck with her. Reminds me of my first bike when I started driving/riding, a Kawi 440 LTD. The Kawi is still in the family. Put some superbike bars on it and maybe a monster fly screen and she wll be styling.

Enjoy!

Thats cool. What year is it from? Early 80s? The lines are similar to some Yamaha's from the 80s.
