Thanks for the help fellas. My last big twin was a buell xb12. That was awful until I had it remapped.
Got to say I'm loving it so far..

Good
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...

Sorry about the late reply.
Nice to hear you are now sorted, and you went for the best colour after all.

Yes - many of us have them - they make a huuuuuuge difference

One of the first things I bought were these, the part number might help;
APRILIA MIRRORS PAIR RS125 2007 on LONG ARM 526085
Speed Blue SL 1000 Falco
Harley Davidson....the most efficient way to turn petrol into noise without the embarrassing by-product of horsepower..

Yeah - there's a link to paypal to chip in whenever the server fees are due.
All completely voluntary but that's how we tend to show our appreciation - by keeping the site running. That way everyone benefits.
We also value those that don't have the where-with-all to chip in as they contribute knowledge or just add to the "Ridersite family".
Right I'm off before someone suggests a group hug.
