For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

I don't think that 3k is an unreasonable request for such a low milage example.
I hope you find the right person for the bike fella :smt002

A touch ambitious I fear :(

2500 to 2750 i reckon


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...

Worth more sure but can you get it? That's the issue.

2 weeks before Christmas - unlikely ...... but if in no great rush, once people's thoughts turn to those of buying nice bikes then it's possible - assuming the Mayans were wrong of course

I'm in no rush to sell, still not convinced I want to.
Bike does have a scratch on the tank that has been repaired but not well by first owner.
This bike is mint.

I think you need to come along to one of the meets with the falco and camp over.
It would be nice to see another limited colour turn up :smt023
And i also when we have a ride out love the attention the bikes get when in convoy.
I personally think you would regret selling the falco but i am biased.
