Man ... could they put a little more space between the rear tire & the fender? I won't even call it a hugger, 'cuz it's only hugging air! :laugh:
But hey, that info helps, so I will check and see how many of those were made. The '89s only came in silver and black - and a police version (of which I think there were like 3).

I think the guy on ebay must think that his bike is really popular because of all the hits on the page. Meanwhile it is all the Paso owners having a look to see how ugly it is...

just remember guys and girls,beauty is in the eyes of the guy holding the keys. it's pissed me off for decades these hardley wanna bee's who can't afford one but don't ride nuttin'! they must really think they're KOOL walking down the street!!! if it's got 2 wheels and ducati on the engine it can't be all bad. i remember 20-25 yrs ago looking at a sales brochure of a 860 gt and thinking what kind of hillbilly would want one of those god awful ugly things? and ya never know, look at the price of crockers now and there were less the 100 reported to be built.it could just be a collector bike that can be used and enjoyed, especially if the price is right. hell, i know someone who just brought home a 250 monza for crying out loud (poor hillbilly).
be nice my friends.

my response will be a bit gentler...
if you think it's hard finding Paso specific parts, try an Indiana.
i looked at one, as well as an Alazzura...
just say no unless your friend wants something really unique that's impossible to get parts for.
