I seem to have posted a couple of times and not put a post in here.

Picked up my '04 Bronze Falco on Friday and really enjoying it, even in this cr*ppy weather. Looking forward to many, many more miles and a few crafty track days.

Next step, replace the rear shock for a nice Maxton one (once the old bike is sold).

Drinks are on me!

Hello Mat! :smt006

Beginning to think I'm going to have to get a Falco just so I can join in the discussions - reckon they'd make a good trike?

That's what Can-Am thought too (basically the same motor)

Welcome to the site Matt. :smt023

You've picked a great bike, so just enjoy it for now.

Just sort the side stand first, if not already done.

I'm pretty sure the sidestand is already done, although it still feels a little high so i'm not parking on any inclined surfaces.

I budgeted for a new shock when I was looking for a bike as I'd heard they were crap. It's correct, it's horrid! Imo the best thing you can do to a bike is to sort the suspension, power is nothing without control.

I tried to price one up bobbi. I know you are not serious but trike uk make the kits for about 3 grand. that includes the differential :smt002
