Newbie to RS Forum

#1 Post by DRJEKL » Tue Jan 10, 2012 9:52 am

Well some of you may know of me from the AF1 forum, I decided to join up on ridersite to have a look around as D-Rider & Al are always referring users to this forum.

The bike build is almost coming to an end as its getting close to how I have always wanted it setup!

Here are the latest round of pics snapped this sarvo after work

Hi and welcome :smt006 Glad you made it over here.

Your Falco is looking really tidy - you've done a great job on it - there are some very nice details ..... and clearly you've not been riding it through a British winter!

Enjoy the forum :smt003

For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

Welcome and nice bike

My personal favourite is the grips and bar ends.....

I can feel a fettle coming on


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...

welcome to the forum and very nice!

Look after those exhausts, my SL right hand side can disintegrated a few months ago. The hot exhaust gasses basically eat the can from the inside out. I was gutted :(. On the plus side, I have a spare left hand side can which i no longer need....
