no, it isn`t unless the Limiteds had something like this.
Someone might just have taken a plaque from a Superlight or 851/888 SP model and glued it on the Paso.

Jay,
Is your 750 from Japan? My Japanese import has 2 holes on the tail piece and the faint outline where the plaque was fitted. Our local Ducati shop imports many bikes from Japan, seems quite a few have this wee plaque fitted. Perhaps it is a local Japanese add-on?

That's not standard on any Paso. It must have been added by a dealer. Nice detail tho.

its an enamelled metal badge with '750435'stamped on it, same as Vin no. Finnpaso.I assumed that all pasos were the same,until I started looking at others on the web.It appears to have been fitted from new.I think fraser is right it appears to be a japanese thing as mine is also a japanese import .

My paso also has the badge and the number matches the vin. registration document states " first registered overseas - declared manufactured 1990". so it was registered in another country before it came to the UK and i suspected that it was older than 1990 as it has the Ohlins rear shock fitted, be interesting to find out the history and why these badges were fitted.

Just curious my 907ie has an oblong indent there on the fibre glass shell, so was there ever anything in that space I was going to use for it an italian flag design.
