First time I realised that Falcos have something in common with GT550s!

:smt002
Both were available in blue or red?

I could tell you a story about my fat biker mate, a GT550 and shopping for fishnets.


But I won't :smt002

Don't then.

I could tell you lots of stories - and I might!

You're right, that's a threat....... :smt001

been on the old Vino Collapso again Bobbi?



that speck of sentiment in your eye gives it away....


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...

Chabby you would be lucky to find a whole bike in Scotswood let alone a Falco, I live the other side, Jingling Gate territory.

Now there's a cracking place name - Jingling Gate.

I, on the other hand, live in South Shields.

Two for the north east chapter.

It's going back but I remeber when you couldn't move for bikes at Whitley bay, now it's like a ghost town.
