now stop being pedantic nooj


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...

What about the patches on the fuel tank? Was it leaking gas?

I bet the air in the tyres isn't the Aprillia fitted stuff, also the forks look like Marz's didn't the early black models come with Showas

According to the paperwork, it's had the same air in all of it's tyres, so that could do with changing.

Right - I've left it long enough for you all to spot the other glaringly obvious change from stock ......

The Pillion Peg Hangers ...... they're the wrong colour for the standard Crow Black Falco

:smt009

Stock? .... My arse :smt020

Actually I did spot the hangers but a quick google does show various black, silver framed falcos with the black hangers, so I didn't want to make a fool of myself by pointing them out :smt020
