Skip, we met a guy from Lichfield who had a monster and rode down with him.

He went off on his own in the afternoon so we had a saunter back.

Riding with him was good for our fuel comsumption. We got 159 miles before we filled up. :shock:

Nah, the yellow is too wishy-washy. The Falco looks best in black.

Good engines, granted, but they ARE Fugly:p

I didn't like the pillion seat either. Pete's back was right in my face and I like to watch the road. The 996 is just like a big SV where pillion comfort is concerned.

Ah, but an RS 250 isn't a Falco.;) I don't like the look of the Mille either, although I'm quite partial to the Tuono.

Technically, the Mike Hailwood replica was a bevel drive 900 from the 80's, but this is called the MH900 which is clearly another tribute to Hailwood.

I really like those :cool:

Just for you then, Fizz:D
