Nice one, We dont get "Ride" here, all the rest (at extortionate prices!) Bloody good mag as I remember too.
Thanks for that :smt006

I can scan and post up if you like?

Not a bad mag although there's a heck of a lot of Ad's and they repeat themselves a lot...and there's a hell of a lot of ad's.....

poxy jadaris machine gets a piccy - mine doesn't.... mutters

thanks for the work furygan :)


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...

Excellent links, thanks for posting.

One thing though. "Your Falcos" - Mike Crocker. Is that anyone from here?! Slightly mistaken in his belief that a dash reset will restrict the bike to 6k rpm... it's a shift light not a rev limiter.

Like fitting crash bungs rather than a sidestand mod?

well Nick, from the old rsvr.net always said that the sidestand was fine....

we agreed to differ on that one
