Nice looking ride dude !
I'm sure there is a Falco out there with your name on it.
Ride one, you'll love it, maybe. It is a marmite thing, you have taste or you dont !
Jap four, good,smooth, predictacble, ect.
Just ride one, only way to find if it is for you or not
Cleverly disguised as an adult !

Very nice, the wheels shocked me a bit at 1st but with that paintwork it make sense.

It looks a bit small for me, but I'd think I'd like to try one.
I hate it when people ask if you have a bathroom, I want to say "No we pee in the garden"

Shes good for a starter bike me thinks, but I'll be ready for something with a bit more grunt early next year.

Yeah the white back wheel is a nightmare to keep clean, I am thinking of getting it painted black, Its not band size wise , certainly for my 5'10' short arse frame.

I don't think 5' 10" is short arse territory. don't get it painted black it will look shite! take a look in photoshop if you don't believe me.

Hmmm, fair point, I'll stick with the cleaning session after every ride, feeds the OCD I suppose :smt020

You'd probably even go for the paint job too.
