    parts/service availability?

    One thing that gives me pause on picking up a Falco is that it is an EOL model. Having a Triumph Speed Four, I know how that feels wrt aftermarket support and parts. Does it seem like the Falco will have decent parts availability for the forseable future?

    i guess i've always considered fleabay to be my parts supplier. that's one thing that i've never worried about with my falco.
    i'm sure that someday there'll be a problem, but for the foreseeable future, many of the falco and mille hard parts are interchangeable.

    Because the falco is a rsv except for the frame parts are not that hard to come by. Plastics could be an issue but there are other creative ways to solve those issue shoud you have them.
    Of course it aint no suzuki...thank god.
    That said these bikes are the most long lasting and reliable you'll ever own.

    In the past I have waited 6 months for parts from the factory. I hope they will get better. If you get a good bike at a good price I would not worry to much, they are reliable. Just don't overpay for the bike in the first place.
