It's a long time since I've seen a VW Baja!
Think the last one I saw had an early Porsche engine.
As Ken says, the RSV's a great bike, but for an old fart like me, the Falco is more comfortable.

welcome :)
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...

Nice motor, I was hoping to gather enough shekels to buid something like that, but 4WD for running around on the beaches hereabouts. prolly never happen.
Ligs, I'm 10 hours ahrad of GMT so no matter how hard you try I'll always be there ahead of you.

Welcome Pat.
You'll see me in Inverary occasionally too but living in near Kilmarnock it's easier to head south into Galloway. Good roads, nice scenery but far less Glasgow hooligan bikers which in turn attracts fewer Plod.
Joe usually gets the bus to Inverary. He finds it takes less time than when he goes on the bike.
