It's Arrived!!

#1 Post by Falco9 » Thu Apr 12, 2007 8:59 pm

Ok, So I know it's not a Falco, but have you been on the Tuono pages?? (tumble weed rolls by) I won't do it again, but I wanted to show off a little as it's my first brand new bike for about 20yrs and I'm sure most of you won't mind this little trangression

Only managed about 50 miles on her so far, but so far loads of fun, I'm well smitten, will get some serious miles done over the weekend I hope!

Very nice :smt003

BTW does that side stand hang out further than the Falco's?

And if so does it use the same connection?

Now go and ride it :smt003

Don't reply folks, he'll soon go back to the Tuono desert. :smt005
Seriously F9, nice to have you still with us :smt006
It looks good mate. Be a nice colour for a Wednesday fan, (not that there's many on here, well possibly one).
It looks very different from the norm, and I certainly like it.
Let us know how it compares, I'm sure everybody here will be very interested.
Got some nice weather to get out and run it in for now, so have fun! :smt004
