I've started a poll on AF1 to get a overall picture on how many Falco's, by colour, there are on the two sites. Basically we (the YFFF) want to know how rare the premium yellow models actually are

Therefore please spare a few seconds to complete the following...

I'll publish the final numbers.

Errrr.............where's the silver option?? I bet silver comes out as one of the rarer colours if not the rarest. Will be interesting to see the results.

Sorry! After Yellow I struggled to remember the other colours

What about multicolours?

I saw a rather nice one in Fulham the other week was in blue, white and black.

I had no idea that bronze is that popular...

another blue added. I know I'm probably biased, but have you seen the blue in the flesh. Much better than in pictures.

Also, IMO I think, more than any other bike, the Falco comes in some very good colours (blue, black, yellow). I think the secret is just using one bold colour. Sorry if I offend, but I think the multi colour ones are a bit shell suited, like alot of bikes these days. Just look at Ducati, when did they do an ugly bike (excluding the multistrada) and they only have red and yellow paint.

AFAIK the only colours available since late 2003 -ish have been bronze/black or red/black. (...and about three green ones!!!)

As a bronze owner I have to say that when it is polished and sitting in the sun it looks like it was carved by the gods: absolutely stunning.

...but when it's dull & dirty it looks like shit (literally).

And when a black one is covered in road shite, it looks a bit bronze......

Yeh but even Ducati finally came to their senses and made the 999 in black.
