Hi guy's, just joined. I have a 2000 Falco, iv'e owned her for around 5 years. I'm normally on the aprilia forum and was recommended to join here too. I hope to own her for a lot longer too and hopefully contribute to this forum
Thanks
Woody

Welcome Woody. Glad you finally made it.

In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular.

Howdy feller mines a coffee and an after eight please can't find any chocolate in the house and had to go to Ikea so I need the boost

For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

Hello mate. Get your credit card ready if you intend to spend much time on here.
Not because they're a bunch of lushes on here (which they are) but because they'll have your bike modded to within an inch of it's life before you can say Falco.

I'm right 98% of the time so why worry about the other 3%?

Welcome
Speyside please - leave the bottle
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...

Shetland eh? I'm hoping to take my trike there next year!
Oh didn't they tell you - not everyone on here is an Aprilia nut!
I'll pass this time, you can buy me a bucket of red wine when I get there next June!
Welcome anyway!

Hoping to get to the Simmer Dim - will have to trailer the trike to Scotland as I can't ride that far, but I really want to be on 3 wheels for the rally, I've been wanting to do it for years!

Thanks guy's
Bobbi the Simmer Dim is great

If it's a bucket of wine your after you'll certainly get that there

i usually go every second year as it lands around the same dates as a rally i attend on the mainland.
I hope you make it up i may see you there
