Just started breaking my falco into bits. Hopefully should have it all in parts by sunday night. So if anyone wants any parts let me know as I'll be listing it bit by bit on ebay soon. Extra bits include
brand new mpl slave cylinder (been on the bike for 10 miles)
brand new never used still in the box UK headlight
afm top yoke conversion for flat bars
Proper gutted to be doing this, but having problems at work, so cant risk spending any money on the bike
All parts in west yorkshire UK
I'll but a thread in the for sale room once its all in bits

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...

unfortunately both the front subframe and screen have been chopped to allow the fitment of flat bars. Got em in the garage here but they got lumps chopped out

got a gsxr 1000 one I have been using, yours for £10 plus post. But it is the stand leg only. Bolts ok to the falco side stand bracket, but I have been using this without any kind of cut off switch
