... Now extremely proud owner of Rich's (f9) superbly kept and fettled '04 bronze & black beauty. Mille yellow spring shock, sl carbons+chip, rsv4 indicators, and lots of other blingtastic additions. I couldn't be happier. 200 miles home today put a smile on my dial visible from space. Gearbox was ridiculously smooth; throttle response and power felt like I was hitting the ffwd button on every lane change overtake - this is what a Falco should feel like!

For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

I've spent 50% of my life riding motorcycles, the rest I've wasted!

Where ever I lay my hat.....
...60 miles today playing in traffic and scaring tourists in central London via the Ace Cafe. The whole bike is a lot sharper than the other one was at the end. The increased ride height from the shock drops a bit more weight on my wrists, and puts the body into a tighter crouch - am actually quite sore, but still smiling.
