we think there are/were five
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...

This is spooky - on another forum I frequent, the salesman at Padgetts (Paul) sent me the link to your bike. He said it went after only two days on the sales floor, and that he was a bit sad to see it go because it was such a lovely bike.
Which is nice...

Yes paul sold it to me, sound bloke. He did mention you was on the ridersite, but not your forum name though
