Welcome, snakebite please, and where did you get the film of Willopotomus from?
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...

Great bikes, but after owning several properly fast bikes, the 85bhp the ducati offers has proved insufficient, so I too am looking at a falco...if the guy ever reads his pm's

Welcome Figaro, you'll not go far wrong with a Falco.
But we're a little bit biased on here.
I'll have a pint of Abbot Reserve please.
