THAT is a sweet deal indeed Ging.

And people say you shouldn't buy a bike in the winter - best time for bargains and no mistake.  900 miles?  that's practically brand spanking.  Well done mate.

Sounds like a good deal to me Ging.
remind me the Falco-is that the half faired model?

Congrats on the cracking deal on the Falco!

Having riden behind Andy (Falcoholic / ZZRider) and his Falco with the blue flame cans - it is very sweet, but after 10 miles my helmet was reverberating too much because of the bl**dy racket, so it was time to trade road position for a while  .....

Have fun and enjoy the big V. It *will* bring out the hooligan in you.

Great deal mate and a bloody nice choice of steed too.

You need cans!! Trust me you really do!! and a chip to match.

Drop a cog off the front sprocket and keep an eye on the rear suspension.

Woo hooo!!

Black ones are faster BTW :buttrock:
Falcoholic
Try the Falco section inHere

Most of the Falco owners appear to change them for s/h Mille ones or Ohlins aftermarket.

It can be a wee bit hard and bouncy sometimes but it hasn't really bothered me yet. Saying that I have a mille shocker to uplift from a breakers.

Great bike that benefits from cans, chip, airbox etc.

I love mine nod.gif

I'll post piccies of it soon
