If anyone is after a nice yellow falco with zero miles then John Vines in Rayleigh appear to have one for sale.

I know there will be lots of interest in this so I have warned them that they will be inundated with calls.

Blimey! £6499

Not as good as the RSVR Factory for £92,150

LOL .... but it's a yellow one ......
and at £6499 it's £1500 more than I paid for mine new!

The RSVR looked interesting ... apart from the £92,150 price tag


Edit:
Ah - Wavey spotted that too - perhaps we'll have a bidding war and push it to a quarter of a million ..........

That's 2 grand more than I paid for my 'new' 2008 Falco, and that was one of the funky Flamingo Red/Anthracite models, not the red-haired stepchild of the Falco family... (awaits incoming flames from Falcomille and others...)

do they actually sell anything? That Falco is ridiculously overpriced. It's actually making me quite annoyed and I'm tempted to phone them. I won't though because I'm weak

... but yes .... but no ... but yes .... but no ..... but ....


Compared to what we've got used to paying for them it's way over the top - but with a weak pound have you seen how much the current crop of new bikes are going for? £10k, £11k, £12k .... and the £15k RSV4 factory


.... compared to them a bargain .... and a couple of grand below the Falco's original list price too.

That said, more than I'd want to pay!

I agree Andy, BUT it is still a 2002 Falco, and have a look at the price you can get a brand new old style RSV-R.

well when you put it like that then it yes but no but yes.

Imagine paying that, doing a couple of thousand miles on it and then trying to sell it privately or worse p/ex ing it. Massive depreciation!!

The RS250 on page 5 looks good..

When I win the roll over Euro Lottery ( ), there will be an RS250 in the bike garage alongside the Falco and a dozen or so other bikes!
Always loved them, never had one and only been on one twice.
Had a number of 2 strokes in earlier years, mainly Kwak KH triples and Suzi triples and twins.
