but for real comic value, ask andy to measure the left hand side bracket for you as you have lost yours....

I especially liked the - I just removed the sidestand to take the bracket off and then... part....


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...

I do like the black bike does look nice, but green is my favourite colour :smt016 i really would love a green falco :smt007, could do with a lottery win i would definatly have one then. I am seriously thinking of selling fazer its a 59 plate in blue with 1900 miles, and i might buy a sorted track mille IN BLACK of course so i can go really fast :smt005 i took my falco to mallory with my mate who has a blue falco also. my bike handled really well i got my chicken strips off and wore my stand down no sh** but the stand is the standard item i think when you have a v twin for road you need one for track

I was told the other week, they are not chicken strips but "safety margins"
