Hi Growler ..... you've stepped into the dark side then?!

Better tell them what bike you've got etc etc ..... they probably won't believe that I know anyone that doesn't have a Falco :smt003

grand dad??

welcome - and spitfire please


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...

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.

Hello mate. :smt003
I'm right 98% of the time so why worry about the other 3%?

I was looking for a comfy bike after riding an ER5 500 mile to Kent and back and hardly being able to walk :smt010

The GV is that bike easy to ride, comfy and with a good kick when you want it
Not the best at going round corners but what do you expect from a bike nearly 2 meters long with about 4 inches of ground clearance :smt003

my favorite comment about her is she has the turning circle of a wounded hippo

but it's my wounded hippo :smt003 :smt003

It is a cruiser after all :smt004
