I bought a 907 Paso new in 91. One of my all time favorite bikes to ride. Not much room for gear though, When I divorced in 04, the ex got the 907 in the settlement, (I kept my Triumph, V7 Sport and the sidecar rig). She still rides and because I'm a nice guy, I picked up last week for tires and maintenance. Yesterday I took it for a ride and it's still an awesome riding bike! I was tip toeing around corners because the tires are so hard but, still a lot of fun. When I got back to the shop, I noticed a coolant leak. The NLA coolant bottle is split, I found a fix I'm going to try on the Paso owner's forum. Also, my ex has had a couple of drops and knock downs so the mirrors/turn signals are glued back together. They are NLA as well. I noticed in the CL ad that the mirror is missing, small wonder.
Like so many bikes, these Pasos were underrated and now with limited parts availability, they're going to disappear. Too bad.

Been there, done that.  :wink:  Hunter/Idontwantapickle has the '88 750 Paso I rescued a few years ago. I got it running, sort of, he's doing the rest.

My brother finally took his 907ie back to Oregon with him, he's even riding it once in a while.
