Hi Scoosh - and welcome

Glad you made it on to here - and sorry for the delay you had in getting your registration approved.
Unfortunately our background checks have been taking a bit longer since the issues over tapping German leaders' phones - our pipeline through to Prism keeps getting interrupted ..........

Anyway, good to see you've introduced yourself to the Falco faithful first - now get up to Sam's Bar, open a virtual tab and tell us about yourself and your bikes over a couple of pints.

Hello

The best use of this crap weather is fettling the fine steed, look at sidestand and rear shock, if you have standard items then start there.
Sad battery syndrome can cause issues, its now too late to do any work so I'll have a large Stella please !

Nope - much more enjoyable to be riding the thing!

Hi scoosh

Now then old people, all falcos are beautiful regardless of their colour. Just brown ones are beautifuller...

Hi Scoosh. You'll get used to the Black/Red/Silver/Blue/Rust ones are fastest thing. And the Yellow ones being cast as the pantomime villain. But I like them!
