No art in these shots, just popped out to set my white balance and place with the heated grips.

I must be lucky, it makes me weep to see a bike that has to live outside.
Speed Blue SL 1000 Falco
Harley Davidson....the most efficient way to turn petrol into noise without the embarrassing by-product of horsepower..

She's started immediately, in fact it was easier to start her that when the weather is mild.

I don't worry about her being outside, she's coated in acf50 and is probably less likely to corrode than the gf 205

Is it compulsory that the Green ones must be pictured in the snow? .... I remember Pete doing that with Hanna's one .....

Condensation parking inside can be more insidious than the weather outdoors.

I still say that colour is stunning


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...

I agree.
I'm right 98% of the time so why worry about the other 3%?

Yes indeed.
White is a fantastic colour for snow ..... far better than the yellow variety .... a bit like Falcos really ....

Saw the first pic and caption of "No Shit" popped into my head. Of course us guys from warmer climates and especially with yellow falcos don't need to go outside and turn on the falco to tell us it's cold. :smt017
