I can't contain myself any longer

I wan't going to say anything until it arrived, but I can't wait.

I bought myself another Falco. :smt026

It's a repairable writeoff and from the photo's looks to be an easy fix. Looks like a sidestand and left clipon and it's ready to go (may be some cosmetics when I see it).

Bloke had it advertised as an "Aprillia SLR" so no one seemed to pick it up so I managed to get it for $2200. Costing me $630 to get it delivered here though, hoping to make a couple of grand profit :smt003

So who's got a spare left hand clipon and modified sidestand?

Pics to follow.

You lucky bastard, is all I can say!
It's the V-twin thing. There's just something about it that inline-4s don't have at all, and V-4s don't have enough of.

Sounds like a good find :smt023 ..... but how are the rest of us going to keep up with this trend of 2 Falcos in every household ......
