Right, before I change my mind, I'm typing this out now. Can't believe I'm doing this, I thought I'd have this bike forever. I barely use it any more since the birth of my daughter though. Nice sunny weekends now mean taking her away in the caravan or to a farm or whatever.

The only riding I do is an annual Euro tour (for which the Falco is awesome), however an imminent house move means I'm going to be buying a proper commuting bike. Having tried a few I'm doing what I never thought I'd do - buy a BMW. So, as I'm now shopping for an R1200RT (expensive) I can no longer justify keeping the Falco.

I have a fair few desirable bits which I'll be taking off shortly. The bike has <20k miles, is on a 54 plate, and is regularly serviced, has recently had new rear pads, a clutch slave seal and starter solenoid. Will have 12 months MOT.

Bad bits? Bike went over off the sidestand shortly after I bought it, and I also laid it down once in Italy when stationary, so there is a mark on the RHS upper fairing and some small marks on the cans. I will get some more recent pics to show this stuff.









The bike will be returned almost to standard. Parts that will remain on the bike:

- Helibars
- Oxford heated grips with cut out
- Gabro chip (will supply standard one too)
- Pillion pad and matching seat hump
- GSXR sidestand
- Skidmarx belly pan
- Wider Aprilia mirrors from I think RS125?
- Datatool system 3 (two fobs/keys)

Buyer can choose either:

- SL Carbon cans AND pillion pegs, or
- Aprilia Fighter high level cans (no pegs)

The fighter cans have some light blistering but are perfectly usable.

Bits that I'm going to sell seperately:

- Genuine lightweight OZ wheels in silver (the #1 upgrade for this bike imo) with Conti Road Attacks fitted
- Fully adjustable Ohlins Falco specific shock (#2 upgrade, no Mille linkages required!)
- Double bubble screen (I always thought standard screen was good, these are excellent)
- Givi rack for top box
- Bagster baglux tank cover, in black and grey, to match later bike paint styling (flashes)
- Bagster tank bag (not sure which one it is, but can expand quite big!)

Not thought on prices yet, I have to do a bit of research, but will be fair market value but at the lower end to sell. I'll spend this week taking pics of all the stuff. I've probably forgotten a few things as well.

Oh bugger, meant to put this in the Aprilia for sale section

Can any kind mods oblige?

Got a price for the OZ wheels and the screen?

Love the smell of vulture sh1te in the mornings!

me too for wheels please and hugger?. :P

Mmm. Selling my oasis too. How weird is that?

Prices

- Genuine lightweight OZ wheels in silver (the #1 upgrade for this bike imo) with Conti Road Attacks fitted. These wheels are mint, no chips. Tyres have less than 1k miles on them. Currently fitted to bike so I need to sort removal etc (I have the original wheels, just logistics) - £650 plus post

- Fully adjustable Ohlins Falco specific shock (#2 upgrade, no Mille linkages required!) - really good condition - I have a hugger fitted to the bike. Comes with original Ohlins box - £300 plus post.

- Double bubble screen (I always thought standard screen was good, these are excellent) - not had this too long, certainly done very few miles on it - £45 plus post

- Givi rack for top box - does what it says on the tin. Rare as unicorn whatsits. £75 plus post.

- Bagster baglux tank cover, in black and grey, to match later bike paint styling (flashes) - these are £123 new. http://www.baglux.co.uk/product/?cat=3&id=2051 . £80 plus post.

- Bagster tank bag - £90 new - http://www.baglux.co.uk/product/?cat=52&id=1786 . £50 plus post.

Any of these available for collection near Chepstow (home) or North Bristol during working hours.

How much for the bike? £2500 sounds about right.

Hi, interested in either set of cans (primarily SL's though) when you know if either are going with the bike can you give me a shout regards price. Thanks. Good luck with the sale too!

I was thinking about this and I think I am better off selling the SL Carbons on the bike, as they have pillion provision.

Therefore I'll let the fighter cans go for £150 plus post. Only other reference I can find for value was a chap selling his new ones for £350 so the price seems fair to me.

As for all the stuff, over the next few days I'll try and get some pics up.

Givi rack sold.

Ohlins sold.

Wheels sold to a very lucky punter indeed!

The fighter cans are dibs subject to pics, here they are.













So not really blistering as I thought. A bit of lacquer is flaking on one, there is a light scuff to the end cap by your ankle on the same can. The other is ever so slightly miscoloured by the ankle end cap.

Yes, I know they're not Akras but there's a couple of scratches under one of those stickers.

I'll post a YouTube video but they sound very similar to the SL Carbons - ie fecking awesome.

This is my YouTube vid of the Fighter cans:

And the SL Carbons which I will be selling with the bike:

Shed a tear firing her up this morning. So much soul, just awesome.

Ohlins now re-available as I'm not able to get it in the post tomorrow. For anyone that doesn't want it by Wednesday (ie later on this week) feel free to pm me.
