Hey all,

I'm new here and joined to gather information and opinions about the Falco. I am currently negotiating on a 2003 model with a little road rash but only 1500 miles on the clock. The asking price is $5500. Deal or No Deal? I ride a brace of Triumphs - a Speed Four and a Speed Triple. Used to own Hondas, but wanted something more exotic, expensive, and hard to find parts for. So far so good. Any opinions on the Falco? Please share.

I am going to keep this sweet, short, and simple. There is so much I could start rambling on about.

If you can get the seller down to $5000, I would definitely go for it. If you can't get him down, I would still encourage you to fork out the extra $500, but I think 5k would be a bit more reasonable.

Good luck to you, bud!

NFR,

Thanks! I looked at KBB and the bike listed at $6400. However, the road rash means getting creative with stickers or breaking down and throwing paint on the bike. I can and do paint, but the temptation would be to go flat and I'm not sure that's the best look for the Falco. Having said all that, I agree. $5K is the right price.
