Welcome to the site Paul,
you've chosen a great bike.

Hope you enjoy it is much as this lot on here do.
Had mine more than 5yrs and still get a buzz every time I ride it, best bike I've ever had and the most reliable.

Thanks guys,will be picking your brains over next few weeks no dout,the bikes standard 18000 miles at the moment,great condition.Think the bars are after market (mili?).So lots of room for inprovement/expence.So let the good times roll.

Mille clipons are a bit lower than the Falco ones .... post some pictures and I expect one of us will be able to identify them for you.

Shouldn't that be posted in the Kawasaki sub forums?

Just seen some fuel ovel stainless cans going on flebay,loook rearly nice ,removable baffles.Are these a good choice over standard (matt black) cans,or are there better road legal cans out there,also would these be straight swop or do i need to chip/remap.sorry about all the questions but been away from bikes so long,the only chips i have a clue about come with salt and viniger!!

I had Titanium Fuels on my frist Falco. Straight swap, No remaps. Don't know if others are better. It's down to individual taste me thinks.

Believe Fuel cans are fine, a few on here have used them so somebody will be along soon. I use "Road Legal" Beowulf Titanium ovals, stamped road legal but they are LOUD.
Run fine on standard setting with the baffles left in, but did put in a K&N at the same time, to get a bit better air flow.
V Twins are always loud on any free flowing cans, the standard units are very restrictive, you can hear the gasses running around trying to get out!
Might be loud but you get that special (V60) V Twin sound.
