All the best to you and my thoughts are with you


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...

best wishes to you and your old man and condolences sir I will have a vodka not even my non alcoholic coffee in this instance
For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

My condolences to you. I hope your dad won't mind a mug of coffee being raised - the sun isn't over the yardarm yet.
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.

Thanks guys, your kind wishes are so appreciated at this time.

Yes Willo it was a 1981 600 pantah sl with a full fairing, unfortunately it was taken off road 6 years ago with electrical problems and never came back, so it was sold just over a year ago :smt009
