I see that on the aprilia Performance site, of the 4 bikes up for the April "Ride Of The Month", one of them happens to be Rooster's Falco.
Obviously cast your votes where you want to but:
- Only one of them is a Falco
Only one of them seems to have much to tell it apart from a polished up standard Mille (save for exhausts and stickers).
Before my vote, it was languishing in last place ... now it's just equal last!
Come on, Vote Rooster - You know it makes sense - we can do something about their disinterest unless it happens to be a Mille.

Tis a very nice bike..
Looking at the competition, one is discounted straight away cos it's just cleaned up..
One is looking a little modded but quite standard..
The other one is in worse state than my bro's old one..
The only thing letting the Falco down is the lack of colour coordination with the stands.

other than that it's head and shoulders above the RSVs. its more modded, better modded and it's got a cool paint job.

cue paddy.....
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...

Close call, I do like Gravelrash's matt black Mille, but the Roostermobile got my vote, effort's gone into it that the others just don't have. Needs 5 more votes to win.

Not when it comes to correcting the misguided voting habits of the Mille riders

Well wonders will never cease - didn't expect so many of them, having noticed "derr dat wun luks like my wun" to be able to work out how to click the button .....
(not that we'd do anything similar ..... obviously .....)
