There are plenty on Ebay, at least in UK. Early Mille's fit, but you'll need to check it.

Thanks for your reply.
I thought that the early mille and falco had the same mudguard. When you say that i should check it out, is that because your not 100% sure.

I am quite sure. I think.

I'll let others speak to confirm.

They are not exactly the same, the mounting points are the same but the falco guard extends further down the fork leg past the lower mount. I think the profile above the tyre is different too as the mille one doesn't have the slight point above the tyre.

Does this means that i can buy one from a mille and mount it on my Falco, but it will look a little bit different.

Looks good that does, sl1000.

Any chance you can let us know how it fits. A photo would be great.

Same goes for yours too Loafersmate.

Thanks fellas.

Here the picture of the mille front mudguard. I had no problems fitting it on the Falco.
