Falco's Heavy Man!!!

[wayofthedarkhand]

As bikes go the Falco isn't that heavy, but it is top-heavy, so that would make it more difficult to pick up than say a ZXR750 which is heavier, but has a lower COG.

.... Have only ever failed the if-you-can't-pick-it-up-yourself-you-shouldn't -be-riding-it test once: with a fully fuelled (don't laugh) firestorm, in a green wet ditch having had to 'bail' after coming round a bend too fast to find a horse float on the single lane hump back bridge ahead of me. Was laughing hysterically as a collection of witnesses extricated me from beneath the thing. So lucky!!! Both myself and bike muddy but unscratched.
