Always have liked a black bike. ( but don't tell Pete!)
In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular.

Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

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

The reason there is a delay of a post from Alad is he is probably up to the 4th page of the list..

In the order of benefit the things to change are:
Sidestand
Rear Shock

Then a very very long list that you can do in any order that suits you .....
