Really sad to see what is possibly the best early Falco here for sale in this section!
Obviously it would not be here unless you really had to take this decision.
Hope it all works out OK for you in all areas.

To anybody browsing here, looking for a Falco ............

This bike has to be a great buy for anybody, one of the best examples around.
Don't miss it!

don't sell it to him, whatever the reason for the sale is, kill her and keep the bike :)

On a serious note, I hope it goes to a home that takes care of it as well as you did, looks lovely (and the best colour by far, with maybe the exception of the recent white one someone built)
