Went out for my first ride in a while yesterday (Wirral Egg Run & North Wales) and on the ride home I couldn't help thinking I fancied a change. If truth be told I even thought I'm bored of the bike despite all the bits I've done to it. So unless I change my mind within the next week I'll be putting the bike back to standard so all the various bits will be up for sale. So as a heads up to anyone who's about to buy some bits for their bike the following stuff should be available in the next few weeks BUT I reserve the right to change my mind and keep the bike though, I'm still wavering a bit

)...if I do go ahead with this then you fella's will get first refusal on this lot before they go on ebastid to highest bidder:

Falco specific Ohlins (1500 miles)
Mille Sachs (with ride height)
Linkages for Mille Ohlins/Sachs
OZ Mille wheels powder coated black
Wavey Discs front and one-off rear (500 miles)
Gilles Vario bars (bar risers in black and silver)
Gilles Rearsets (Titanium colour)
Mike's Grilles Radiator Grilles (Silver)
Titanium one-off exhaust hangers (beautiful)
Clear Rear Lens (Paddy has first refusal but might have to fight D-Rider for it though

)
Home-made evo airbox with K&N filter - works nice, induction noise!!
Blue Flame Evo (single exit) Titanium cans with two types of removable baffles (un-badged and BS stamped)
Power Commander III (USB) - Brand new and unused
Oberon Engineering - Alloy reservoir covers & stainless steel bar ends
Baglux tank harness (Black)
Skidmark double-bubble screen in black (slight chip at the bottom where it fell off the bench)
May be other stuff that I've forgotten about......

There's a load of good stuff here and it's all in either excellent or immaculate condition.

I just can't help thinking that I want to get back on a 1000 four, i just want the smoothness and effortless drive back. I always seem to get a two year itch and its about that time again and my eyes have started to wander......I'm fancying one of the new FZ1 Fazer's, in black of course, with a decent can......138bhp and super-comfy.....

Wasn't that your 1st ride since last August?

Cos if it was, I'd not be surprised, you've forgotten how to ride.

Get an egg box with a wheel at each corner

I "might" be interested in your rear-set mate, decide nearer the time
if that's OK.

Since it is becoming a trend could I just say that you shouldnt all feel you need to sell up and move on just cos Gio has arrived.

WHAT ?? !!

First Rich, Now you !!

What's going on!

I hope this isn't catching - I want to keep mine but it looks as though my days may be numbered if an epidemic breaks out.

Come on TN, see reason - disappoint all those greedy asset strippers that want the nice bits from your bike and come to your senses.

Mind you, I did waver a bit last year when mine went for a service and I had that R6 loaner ..... eventually got that out of my system though.

Oh well, guess you'll do what you feel you must - whatever that turns out to be.

And as for those goodies you're tempting us with, it seems that I've spotted this too late for the bits I would want (those I could actually afford at any rate)

Hope you change your mind about selling but each to their own. Also thanks for remembering me with the lens. If you do sell I will be interested in the baglux if no one else has laid a claim.
And before you sell lets have a meet up and go for a final blast together.

If you really want to do it...I'd be interested in airbox. Pictures and price?

Falcoholic · #15 Post by **Falcoholic** » Tue Apr 03, 2007 8:25 am

No way. With all that bling you just can't trade.

Ohlins rear with linkages please
