Hopefully the link works new addition to the family will be getting some changes made so there will be bits coming available sometime soon well the next month or two
For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

Yes - will this one be put through a hedge, embedded in a BMW, tripped up on diesel on a roundabout or just modified through some other sort of abrasion/impact combo ?


Looking nice at present .... :smt003

It should be safer as its still not black !! Means I can accelerate out of trouble :smt017

According to the receipts it had the sprag a new battery and starter this year 2 of the previous owners were police

If it survives long enough will be going to the man from Lincoln soon enough and photos will be posted then.

Meantime there will be lots of good condition spares coming up !

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...
