Hi guys after much thought and deleberation after the theft and return of the falco I today traded her in. Will miss the bike its been great fun. Ive recently just been using her for a commute in heavy traffic and shes got very hot and bothered. The fuel consumption was also crippling me. I kept with aprilia and today picked up a DORSODURO 750.

Its definatly not got the looks or the power of the falco but feels good in traffic and hopefully wont be as thirsty. They gave me £1750 for my 05 falco with 14000 miles on it. It did have a broken steering lock(from the theft) and some panel damage down one side due to a little incident that I never got done due to a high excess.

The dorsoduro is a couple of insurance groups down on the falco so i'm actually getting some money back from them.

I have a few Falco bits leftover and will put them up for sale in a few weeks time if any ones interested.

cheers

I dont think thats too bad a return on a slightly broken Falco on P/Ex.
Hope the 750 is enjoyable and cheaper to run!

I can hear wings being stretched and talons sharpened..

Ah ..... I've replied in the other place you posted this

No point in hanging to any bike if it's not doing the job and not making you smile. Enjoy the new bike and let us know what you think. Good luck.

Sorry the Falco had to go mate, but will be very interested to hear how you get on with the Dorsoduro, I'm sure you come back end tell us!
