Green eh, no doubt its slower than a silver one tho

Take no notice Hornetrider, Gio's planning to fit a Honda Blackbird motor to his Falco ..... and his last bike was a Space Tractor that was commandeered by marauding Space Pirates.

Mind you, Gio's your man if you're feeling a bit peckish.

I know the above comments sound like the deranged ramblings of some crazy nutter - but when you've been around here for a while you'll understand the truth contained in these statements.

OK, I'm off to take my sedatives now before they lock me up for the night .......

Hey! Excellent!

Congratulations on the purchase - its a good price too but you will find many ways to spend money on *bling*

I cant wait to see it in person on a Falco rideout

The bike looks stunning. I've never heard of this colour till now. Congrats!

Thanks for the positive comments lads, its reassuring to get a resounding thumbs up from those in the know. I just hope the bike is as good in the metal as it looks in the pics!

I'll look forward to taking future pie advice from you Gio...

....oh, and green is DEFINITELY the new bronze

Don't get overenthusiastic here. Although your's rare and looks good, there is NOTHING that could get even close to bronze. Bronze is the essence of Falcos, that coulour is the reason why I fell in love with them.

Besides, it's fastest.

Congratulations Hornetrider, Hope you have as much fun on the Falco as the rest of us seem to have.

I'm still being amazed with prices these bikes go for. Is it just us who have eyes and see that? I thought I've got my for peanuts. You just cannot get any bike that would be close quality and performance-wise (not to mention looks and style) in this sort of money.

We pay when we want to move on though... That is why we love Falcos (because we've got no choice, right?)

At least that is what we want others to think

Weklcome Hornet Rider and congrats on your new purchase. Excellent choice of steed if I may be so bold.

It won't be long before it finally clicks that black ones are the fastest.

I agree with the price comment - relatively speaking its a hell of a lot of bike for the money. I'm sure I'm going to sit in my garage just ogling the Brembos and carbon fibre cans

Falcoholic · #27 Post by **Falcoholic** » Thu Mar 22, 2007 9:18 am

Aah yes the ogling thing

I reckon we're all a bit guilty of ogling mate.

Welcome Hornetrider - great choice of bike and very rare colour - most of us haven't ever seen a Green Meanie

get your credit card out though, this lot will spend your money faster than you can earn it.

Enjoy the ride.

Hoefully it will ripen in the summer sun, and be as fast as the red ones.
