Hi Squid and welcome 
I'm fat and ugly, and also old.
I've been riding 40 plus years and had lots of bikes over the years.
I've had my Falco for more than 6 1/2 years and it is the best bike I have ever had, and also the most reliable!
It's a great bike and you won't go far wrong with one.

Fat and ugly suits me. I have a lovely personality...Falcopops wrote:

You will see from my avatar that I'm clearly the prettiest on this site, hence the reason for the attractive photo of my bottom so as to not give the others and inferiority complex.
That is a very nice bottom - who did the paint?

Been in touch with the owner and it's a UK bike with UK light. Deal should be sorted this weekend, got a van/driver lined up to collect it and the insurance are ready to drop it on my policy. Only thing it's missing is a hump.

I generally go to Scotland to crash, save on airfare...

Falco is number one choice, I will never sell mine .............................randomsquid wrote:Hello and thanks for the welcome.

I've already got one more Kawasaki than any sane person should own. I'm torn between the urge to mother it or smash it to bits with a big hammer, set fire to it and then bury the remains under the patio.
I think a Falco is more or less inevitable now. But I wouldn't throw money at it. Just shock, bellypan, stand, tail tidy, indicators, exhaust...
but, if you ever do still think GREEN get a late Kwack ZX9R F model, they are also superb, and much more comfortable than any other sports bike I've ridden, and seem to be very well put together! ??? !
P.S. Now, no more excuses, get the bloody drinks in!

Wouldn't mind a camel, been a long time since I had a hump.snapdragon wrote:surely that'd make it a camel? are you also planning sahara-rash?randomsquid wrote:Only thing it's missing is a hump.
I've decided to try and avoid any more rashes. I find I'm quite miserable upside down in the scenery.

I like ZX9s but I don't think I'd be able to resist the urge to go fruitloops on one. My colleague had one and he goes all dribbly when he talks about it, and this is a man who thinks that ZZR14s are sensible real world motorbikes.HowardQ wrote: Falco is number one choice, I will never sell mine .............................

P.S. still can't get the drinks in. The ugly bird with the big feet has my wallet.

Common!
This is a virtual bar, you only need virtual cash.
Mines a J&B.
P.S. You can still go pretty loopy on a Falco, but easier to have fun riding slightly slower on a Falco.
