But not quite what Pedro wants for spirited riding in the Spanish uplands.
That Ducati is still calling.

I've got it! A falco, perfect, great bike with all the looks and go, but bearable with pillions and they can be bought fro peanuts at the minute.

Dunno what Prillas are like in Spain,but here you need to buy a shed load of spares just in case as it takes months for them to arrive from Italy.
Nice bike,shame about the backup.

Ah well back to that Honda then.
