I'm not sure I recall the full story but essentially, I bought an Aprilia Falco OEM saddle base that had been rebuilt with the foam and cover from a Sargent saddle.

I tried it for a few rides and simply could not get away it.

Being the 'old git' I am, my hip replacement makes saddle choice critical, its simply too firm.

N.B. Slight damage on the RHS, stitched by hand by the seller and a dammed good job too.

SO I offer it at exactly the same price I bought it £120

Will try some image links next - Cheers

Still available from Sargent, £285 upwards without shipping etc etc.

Ouch.

Hi Frank, if I didn't have a remodelled standard seat courtesy of Tony Archer I'd be interested, but...

How's things? Got any riding plans for 2024?

Hi Graham.

Not sure what happened to my image links but I wanted to offer the saddle here first before the FB Falco group where I originally bought it from.

Not many plans for this year - I tried to go to Brussels last month and having never been on Eurostar or the Chunnel, thought that would be an excellent idea. Especially to go see a brand new motor show in the city.

Two days before leaving I fell ill and got a positive covid result - no travel allowed for 5 days.

That has pretty much knocked the stuffing out of Me, in more ways than one...

How about a Falco meet at AP head quarters? I think Griff has a soft spot for em!

Cheers.

Hi Frank,

I know the feeling - I contracted Covid in mid November 2023 and didn't start feeling back to normal (whatever that is) until mid January 2024. Meeting up at AP sounds like a plan - my Falco is in France at the moment but will be heading back to the UK in mid-May, so some time after that would be fun...
