Newbie.....

#1 Post by Smilinjack » Sun Apr 06, 2014 7:34 pm

Hi all, I've been put onto this site by a current member and Falco owner. Cards on the table, it's my interest in the Falco that has prompted me to join. I'm looking into buying one if I can clear some other bikes out so may do more lurking than much else for the time being. I currently own a 2002 VFR Vtec, 2010 Speed Triple, and am hoping to sell a 1200 Bandit and my trusty old ZZR1200. :smt001

Ah-ha - do I sense a refugee from the BO VFR forum? If so (and even if not), then welcome! You've arrived at UK Falco Central... :smt003

Unlikely mate-I'm looking for an add-on as it were. VFR is a keeper I fancy. :smt001
