Nah, not with the forward pegs, I don't. However, the jetta will do most of those at about 80. Love that little diesel for when I have to take the cage. They let me park my bike back in the bus shed when I ride to school. I'll miss it next year if the lay-off goes through. Nice school, nice ride...

Came outta subway 2 day i was in my jeep and saw a sweet red fz1 and a gsxr750 I think. Anyways the 2 gentlemen were at there bikes so I just walked up and started talking. They didn't hear of this forum so I told them they should check it out so maybe we will see them on here soon. They seemed interested to ride with more people so I told them they can meet for the bike nights at sonic. Maybe we will see them there so keep your eyes out for a new red fz1 and a Suzuki 750 sportbike I think it had a yellow and something paint scheme.

Hey! I think I saw a flame red Aprilia Falco heading south along my I-5 fence. That sure is a pretty color, especially when the sun hits it. Was our fearless Goderator heading somewhere fun?

Sorry for the quality, but my cell phone camera had pocket lint on the lens. I remember them saying $125k. The dealer is Fay Myers, http://www.faymyers.com/new_vehicle_...ModelYear=2009. You know you've got to have it.

It was not me. Therefore, it was not a Fire Red Aprilia Falco. I'm such an ass.

Yeah you are, but perhaps yours isn't the only one? Or, someone took it for a spin while you weren't looking? Funny, it was a yellow and black jacket with a blue helmet too. No color coordination at all. The color was right and the sound was definitely not Japanese, so I was pretty sure Italian. Strange things have gone by along my fence. My daughter missed the Jonas Brothers tour bus...

It could have been someone borrowing it. My primary key is missing. LOL. But there are people that always think they see me, when it's not me. I'm pretty sure there's a similar-colored SV around with a pipe. I've seen it once or twice.

Here's another one of the underside of the exhaust, since you seem to like it so much.



You're welcome.

It would be fun to walk in to the dealership with a bag full of grass to stuff in the fairings. When they ask what you're doing, tell them, you want to see what it will look like after you take it out for a ride...

I keep thinking heated seat! Only, you can't regulate the temp. I don't think a toasty butt is all that cool when the temps. are over 70.

I wouldn't let that sucker out of my sight for a minute. My brother-in-law had a white 848 last year. He bought it new and it was stolen from his driveway in Portland about 3-4 months later. Never recovered.

Only if you are blind and deaf. I'm telling you, it's Italian and the same shade of shiny metallic paint. Someone's playing with your ride and rolling the odometer backwards afterwards!

Oh finally some respect around here. Suzuki my ass! I know an Italian twin when I hear one... and that color... Suzuki's orange doesn't even come close. It's too brassy.

A few weeks ago Marty said he saw a red Falco at the credit union in Green.
