I was thinking of buying one of the purpose built ones of fleabay, but they're not going to be ready till the end of May, I'm too scared to wait that long. I'll dig round and see what there is, I may even chop the bottom off and get it welded in the meantime.

I saw those thread about the tail tidies, very handy. I don't want to sound ungrateful for the work he's putting into designing those ones, but I'd rather do it myself, it gives me more satisfaction.

I took the bike up the ace cafe tonight, the more I ride that bike, the more it scares me, doing 110 (sorry, 70) up the M40 and accelerating, and I still reckon the front week would come up a bit if I hit a bump, these Falco's pull like motherf&*kas :smt003

wait till you start to fettle it a bit

ok, mine is not what you would call standard, but fark me it flies

really interested to see how the renegade chip performs.....


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...

Mine has already had the chip changed, Paulm gave me the original, I'm not sure what chip's in there though.

:smt017 He's not called "Pan" unless that's a special pet name you have for him
