Broxburn Falco?

#1 Post by Dusty » Thu Apr 08, 2010 8:25 pm

Spotted parked outside C&J Wilson, the Kawasaki dealer in Broxburn, West Lothian this afternoon: lovely W reg black Falco in 100% original(?) condition. Anyone on here? Much as I love my Flamingo Red/ Anthracite 04, there is something special about the black bikes with the shiny frames.

what is this original condition you speak of??


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...

There wasn't a credit card mark on it that I could see! Although it was in lovely condition and obviously well looked after.

For the avoidance of doubt, I should point out that my own Falco has Fuel exhausts, yellow spring Mille shock, Givi pannier frames (sometimes) and a belly pan in the garage to fit. So, pretty oroginal by the standards on this forum, but I'm getting there. Honest.

Thats just as well as Pete was being pretty moderate really. The cry is usually "burn 'em" rather then "stone 'em".
He must be in happy mode today, then again it is Friday with some good weather forcast for the weekend, so biking time!
