Nice to see you Alan, if you own a Falco, you've come to the right place.
:smt006

Tell us more about your bike, how long have you had it and what, if any, mods have you done.

Hi Alan and welcome to Ridersite :smt006

Good to have another from the IOM. We used to have your island's head of motorsport on the forum until he sold his Falco ......

Hi Alan, and welcome. I've spent many a TT fortnight in Ramsey, and really like the place. I bet your Falco knows its way around the course!

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...

Recent pictures of Tim suggest that he's the forum's resident silverback !

I think it's all part of his attempt to hone those camouflage skills. Pop him in front of Mart's FutFut and he goes invisible .......
