Just been out on the Falco for an hour after spending most of my recent biking miles on the Tiger.
Went to fill up before heading home just to clock up 20,000 miles.Bike is 9 years old in November so that's not many annual miles really, just run-in I suppose.
Anyway, that's it. Still love the bike.

Tolerance will be our undoing.

He'll need to get used to the power again after the triumph...
Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can enjoy today

I'm up to 54k now, early 30k of that since May 2013 when I bought the bike. Still doesn't feel run in

Absolutely right Keith. The Falco feels like a small racing thing after the Tiger. Everything is so tight and precise. The power delivery is so addictive, and the gabbro chip is amazing.
