I had an 88' Paso and if it was worse than that bike I'd watch out!

Most of the twins were horrible little oil leakers. And noisy cam chain!
Taglioni didn't have anything to do with their design or production. He felt the parallel twin was an anachronistic design. He was already thinking ahead to the Pantah engine. A junior engineer did the parallel twin.
IMO, the only twin(s) to own are the 350S or the 500S, because of the Tartarini designed bodywork. Just gorgeous. But I still wouldn't ride one very far...
