Is the bike still black Greg or is it a different colour that is just hard to tell on the photo?

Jay - Greg has told me it looks black until the light catches it and then it becomes a deep purple.

Greg - looking good! Guess you got the seat lock sorted OK :smt002

very plum :)


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...

Hi all,

Yes, as DR stated, black and when light hits it, a deep purple fleck comes through on a sunny day. So, I should be able to see it around 14 days a year :smt004

Hey Greg - now that you've got it back together I hesitate to mention that you seem to have forgotten to paint the engine gold ..........

Very nice. I've always had a soft spot for a bit of deep purple.
