fark.. a bit deep for this time of the evening.
awesome vid though.. put things in to perspective a little.
Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.

I find that strangely moving.
In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular.

Yeah - I guess you must find it quite heart-warming to see the younger generation out on their bikes.

My dad was riding into his 80's on his BMR80. Used to poodle off to Germany for a few weeks.
He was 88 last year and asked to go for a spin on the back when I popped over for his birthday. I didn't take him though it was bloody cold end of November... and he wasn't well.
Maybe I should take him out this summer. He's had a second significant stroke and may not see another...

I loved the video
And the rest can ride bikes - let's go ride falcos!
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...

Thanks for that - made me feel young again!
The tragedy of old age is not that one is old, but that one is young.
