Testing your knowledge: Falco dimensions....

#1 Post by Obiwan Kenobi » Wed Dec 04, 2013 10:32 am

I have a deal on a new shed, but need to let the guy know by end of today.
I am at work and the Falco is at home.
Does anyone know the width of the bike at widest point, presumably between handlebar ends (mirrors can fold)?
Cant seem to track this down by searching on here and t'interweb.
Thanks.

That's brill thanks.

So if my shed has a 3ft wide door and is 8ft long, she's gonna fit in no worries.

Cheers.

28 inches wide and 6 feet 6 inches long.

It will fit but remember you and the bike have to get through the door as you will be pushing it in or can you ride it in.

As you have the dimensions already, I'll just confirm that mine fits fine in a 20' by 20' garage.

Can't get in to check at the moment, there are two builders trucks parked in front!

That's actually a very good point. Admittedly the bike is a fair bit narrower at the point where you will (presumably) be standing, but 3 ft isn't a great deal of space to get Falco + person manhandling it through.
