Yep .... you all thought the Falco was a Sports-Light - or maybe a sports-tourer.

Well, tonight I've learned that it's an Enduro/Supermoto

..... strange the seller doesn't even mention the Mille swinger and tail tidy .... but then he/she doesn't seem to know whether the bike is located in Reddich or Cubbington (a village near Coventry where a friend of mine lives - and, no, I've not seen this one about)

Then again he may just have been distracted by the cleavage.

Anyway, everybody knows it's a -

SPORTIVA LEGGERA Mille.

Sometimes translated as Sports Light, but the first one sounds much better.

According to Babelfish, that translates to "Light Sportswoman"

Or was that a joke and I've completely missed it?

Hi Okamoto

That looked like a nice gentle parking manoeuvre

Did you get out alright?

Yeah ..got away with a few scratches ( bike I mean )...I was only doing about 30 at the end, although it doesn't look like on the vid we were batting on into that bend, I braked a bit too hard with the rear, a combination of that, and new rubber with 40 miles on had the back tyre chattering and skipping with no grip.

So i had the option of trying to get round and probably sliding it down the road...or the soft field/ hawthorn bush approach

all good fun eh.

My Brother who was in front had a bad gut all day from laughing
