Hey fellas .
I've seen this site around a few times and thought I'd drop in to see whats go in on.
I heard about it on the Af1 site.
I've had a falco for about 3 years and it's fairly heavily modified.
I.love the bike and I've been smitten by the rotax engine since I first rode the bike.
I am now well and truly addicted to all things aprilia.
There will be a pic of my falco as soon as I work out how to post one . Oh. And I do believe it's customary for all members to buy a newcomer a pint so I can get wankered for free..
Black and silver falcos are by far the fastest colour... fact

The idea is that we get wankered and you stand back and watch - then take the piss a bit ...

Welcome in, don't forget the pics. :smt002

Hi Ned,
Yes viewed the pics. You are clearly a man of taste, Falco owners are !
Silver Falco's, supreme taste !
Red wheels ? I'm sure we can debate this over a pint ( you're buying ! )
Welcome to the weird world and enjoy

When I click on the link I can see them on google photos.

If you want to see them directly in the forum post, you will need to put them on a hosting service that will give a link that has a picture file extension at the end (eg .jpg or .gif or .bmp etc)

These can be a bit of a pain - at least the free services - as they do tend to drop pictures or accounts from time to time.

I just started using another one this last week - I give no guarantees but seems OK so far: https://imgbb.com/

I've made a copy of your pic and uploaded it to that hosting service .... and linked it to show here:

We are currently looking at the whole forum hosting and would like to sort out image hosting reliably at the same time. Bear with us .... it may take a little while ....

Is this the turbo Falco I've read about over on AF1? You mad, mad, mad bastard.
It's the V-twin thing. There's just something about it that inline-4s don't have at all, and V-4s don't have enough of.

Welcome to the asylum. Looks like your credit rating is in fairly good order. Excellent. :smt003
