Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Considering it looked as dirty as Dale Earnheart's NASCAR post race, the other day (in the pics from the meet) now it looks like a totally different bike!

Nice ! looks great without any graphics - I guess you like to make it even harder for those not n the know to work out what it is :smt002 . Can I ask where you got the silver grilles and if you'd recommend them as quality items.

I thought that when it was cleaned it would come up yellow ..... Pete being exposed as a closest member of the YFFF ....


..... I'm now thinking that even Nooj's fantastic cleaning didn't strip all the crud away ....

Having seen my mate Matty's Fazer recently, you're both no where close. Took me FOUR HOURS to clean it!!
