Just testing really - never posted pictures before
This is the first Flamingo falco - got lifted Dec 2005
and the current Bronze job - just a year old. No special mods just the Blue Flame cans, tail tidy, crash bungs, hugger - got a white mille shock but haven't had it serviced yet. since the pic its now got stainless bar ends and some subtle black ARAI logos on the tail unit.
Oh ... and here's some more twins

I feel I should explain my tendancy to supporting the YFFF claim of being fastest..
This is Trev on his old Falco from around the time when he raced for RiOT Racing (on a Mille..sometimes with a Falco engine..) It didnt hang around in the slightest!
Somewhere Gio laid claim he'd never seen a yellow one... Poor Gio.. He is getting on a bit I guess.... He's seen Trev's yellow Flakko before..

Probably the most famous Yellow one is Ico's "Canarino Feroce" (ferrocious canary).
Ico put more than 100,000 kms on this bike .... before he wrote it off.
There is a write up about Ico's bike on the Official Aprilia website:
http://www.racingaprilia.com/backstage_ ... sp?id=1727
Ico used to post regularly on AF1 - usually with amazing pictures of rides through the Italian mountains or incredible angles of lean around some racetrack or other. These were interspersed with pictures of innumerable latin lovelies riding pillion or groups of them surrounding him .... Lorenz eat your heart out ....
From what I remember, although he smashed the Falco, Aprilia gave him a great deal on an RSV .... and I think he was trying to patch up Canarino Feroce for the track.
EDIT: Well, would you believe it - posted this up then thought I'd have a quick look at the AF1 site and found that Ico has just posted up a picture of his restored Carino Feroce - now sporting a natty Yellow and Silver colour scheme !
