I think that it's a fair enough price, and the buyer has got a lot of bike for the money.

I'll still cast an eye around these parts.
Good luck with whatever you buy carl.
Just out of interest... With the exception of me. How many was watching the falco on Ebay? :smt017

Must have been about 80+ people watching at it's highest point. The page had over 1050 views

Three came to view it, and I was answering questions right left and centre.

One guy was a bit annoyed that he didn't bid higher. lol

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...

Bargain!

If I didn't have one already, I'd have bid a fair bit higher than it went for

Bought a F650 Dakar.

Very different to the Falco, but great fun. Took it off road today and had a ball.

Oh dear. I guess he just hasn't got on with it.

He was injured when he bought it from me, and had to have friend ride it back for him. I hope poor health hasn't forced him to sell.

From something Pete posted on Facebook, I guess this may well be the case.

Sad - I feel for the current owner.

I also hope we don't loose track of the bike

Not good but they take away your licence for that?

Clearly interrupted breathing when you sleep is not a good thing at all but you don't tend to be sleeping when you are driving or riding .... or if you do, that's another problem in itself.

You're not endearing yourself to us Paddy - all this talk of KTMs and painting rare bikes an unspeakable colour .........
