........... so what's wrong with that
would we prefer
"Italian chic at Italian exotica prices"
"Taiwanese quality & style at man at C&A prices"
(with all due respect to the Taiwanese who, I'm sure, make really wonderful products)
Nope - the quality product picked up for a bargain price is a thing to be proud of - shows we can spot a good product and value for money.
..... failing that, I'll just settle for the Italian Chick .....
(don't tell the mrs)....

Remember them? I wear them ..... their jeans are particularly well priced.

Perhaps you'd rather have Italian unreliability at Ducati prices.
I'll stick with the Falco at a price I can afford for the best and most reliable bike I've ever had thankyou!
P.S. Did I also mention that even at my age, I can still ride a Falco for hours in comfort.
Loved the gorgeous 916 from the day I first saw it and wanted one so bad it hurt, that is until I first got to sit on it and discovered I would never be able to ride it for more than half an hour, and even then I would be in real pain by the time I got off. Still I would have loved to have one as a piece of art work in the living room, like Foggy does. Then again a living room the size of Foggy's would probably be necessary to give me a bit more room to still live in it.
I will just have to console myself that I also think the Falco looks gorgeous, it is a tiny fraction lighter, has slightly more power and a much better mid range.
Have to admit I did shop at C&A as well.
