Not mine or any relation to me. Just found these on the French ebay but they post to Europe:

Mmm. Just bought some new Motrax Venoms off £130 off Ebay - brand new, and sound pretty good. What's interesting here in France is the price you can get for bikes and bits. I had a chain and sprockets fitted in my local Aprillia dealer in Carcassonne, and the mechanic offered me €4000+ for my bike! Guess they like the fact that British bikes are full power and not restricted.

i keep looking at these and wondering.....


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...
