Yep, that eccentric is right from the Paso 750 which sort of closes it for me that the engine is from a Paso 750. 

The shock has some custom linkage at the top.  BOth the Paso and Elefant had very cool rear suspension.  That's not a Paso shock, I can say that.

Looks like they shaved a good bit of metal off it too.

So looks like an SS top/frame and a Paso 750 bottom/rear.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

its a little depressing to think that this frankenstein shows off the engine better than a factory pantah

notice the 1990s era 900SS intake manifold on the testa orrizontale
