Only coy if you can't bloody add up Andy!
I don't wish to carp on about this coy-ness ..... but .....

There's not enough info Howard - the only facts we have are how long you have been riding and at what age you passed your test.
The vital piece of information we are lacking is how long you were riding before you passed your test ..... or the age at which you stated riding ..... or even more simply, just how old you are now.

I'm 30

I think the falco is an awesome bike, for me its the ergonomics that are the main reason to go for this kind of bike

I just can't see me living with something with race rep proportions and peg positions

Current Average: 40.55 (guess this rounds to 41)
This average excludes Tommy's Mum. Whilst I'm sure she's a very nice lady, as far as I know, she doesn't ride an Aprilia

Come on Nostradamus, I started riding and passed my test at 16 and have been legally riding 47 years.
So now you can up the average a bit.

If that's too hard just add 9 on to your age!

Just need Tweaker, OldGit and Ken and a few others along with me and the average will be up to a respectable age again.

:smt001 OK then I'm here, but i'm not as old as Howard.
But like him I passed my test at 16 and been riding 42 years.
Thats nearly a quarter of my biking years that i've had this beautiful Falco.
It still makes me feel like a teenager when I throw my leg over it.
This should put the average age up a bit.
