Falco prices may go back up!

#1 Post by Paz0274 » Tue Jan 03, 2012 5:29 pm

This months Ride mag has an article on Britain's biggest bike bargains and the Falco is at number 14. It also says it is a bike for serious riders so we can all cheer up again!

I read that too in the library sorry supermarket ... Said not likely to find low mileage examples as these are bkes for serious riders :smt005
For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

Not sure about that at all. Most of the types on this forum are a bunch of piss-takers who couldn't be serious for 5 minutes if they tried... :smt003

(And all the better for it, I might add...)

I think they meant serious, as in "I need to go on a seriously long ride to think about how to take the piss out of so-and-so on Ridersite".

I agree that a Harry Hill style fight is a cracking idea. I think PB might have a bit of inside knowledge as their bint used to work on Ride.

I posted a photo of these in the other thread. No-one commented. :smt009

I did have a look in Ride this lunchtime ...... it doesn't entirely contradict the PB article as the Honda SP2 is listed a good few places above the Falco .... and that's not very different to an SP1.

Even more surprising was the Mille in at No 2
