I think we'll take the rating that RiDE give it instead.

94th ????????????

What made it even funnier was the fact that my old CBR1000F was 93rd !!

Then again they are always next to each other in the garage as well.

Mystery Solved

Has no one else realised why the Falco has been rated so lowly ??

Get yourself a look at MCN (page 10) .... there will be plenty still sitting on the shelves at £2.80 a pop ......

The answer is obvious ..... IT'S A YELLOW ONE FFS!!!

... although of those revealed so far (bikes 61 to 100), rating it lower than a Harley is really taking the pi~~ .................

It's all those Hell's Accountants and their designer Harley lifestyle gear that keep the numbers up so high. Damn them.

An indication of where and how badly, democracy is flawed. The majority can be so ignorant!

Still we don't want the rest of the world buying Falco's and putting them out of reach of the enthusiasts....... or making modding one, an act of sacrelidge.

I agree with HisNibbs, 94th means less people will be attracted to them and as such keeps them that little more exclusive. I personally don't mind where they came in the poll. As long as your happy with what you have, thats the main thing! And I am happy with my Falco.

Then again it might be something to do with this quote -
"It's the V-twin thing. There's just something about it that inline-4s don't have at all, and V-4s don't have enough of".

Suppose that we have to remember that Harleys are actually V Twins after all.

OK done.
Now we can forget em.
