i think, Carl, that once you change the shock, all will be good - afaik all the replacement shocks are a touch taller so helping lean angle


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...

welcome Dude. I'm a n00b too. 2004 Falco, looks like I need to do everything (Stand, clutch jet, rear shock, brown connector blocks etc).

Not even the bike yet.. roll on May when I get back.

how diddly doo squire enjoy the change took me a few weeks of thinking this is boring compared to the bandit before I realised it wasn't jus like meself as I get smoother as I get older :smt003


sidestands can be bought new for 50-60£ wish I'd put it at the top of my list :smt010
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
