Gday Henry

Very good to hear of your substantial miles - no wonder the swing arm bushes are getting a little playful.
Gambalunga gets sent to the MG Club of Victoria, so I will hunt down your account.

Cheers
James

Gday Pops, welcome, and congrats on the new addition to your fine stable.
Most of the web traffic from here moved to Banquo's Facebook page (link below).
But it's still worth keeping an eye on this site too, as there is a wealth of info here.
For example the Paul Friday Resources (aka Fried Ape), Monohorizontal's posts, and experts' replies (eg Banquo's) to numerous ailments and modifications.
Best wishes and let us know your impressions as you get used to your Nuovo Falc.

Great write-up Rob.
Problem, analysis, method, solution.
Will be interesting to hear how the Pirner clutch goes.

Gday Walter
Always good to hear from another NF pilot.
Yes sadly there's not much traffic here but as you say there's a wealth of great info thanks to Banquo and others.
If you are able to post details of your NF exploits I'm sure people will be appreciative.
Mine is also a '71, a Carabinieri.
Cheers
James

Your Nuovo Falcone / Re: Venier custom NF on Bike Exif
« on: July 10, 2019, 10:27:08 pm »
".... it's the old-fashioned nature of the bike that's the attraction..."
I agree completely with this.  A bike that somehow looks as though it could have been built from the 40's through to the 60's.

"..It's difficult to think of a less practical military machine than the NF..."
I'd love to hear accounts from ex-military people (or law enforcement) of actual NF use in the services.  Australia used Triumph 650's around the same time I think, as well as BSA B40's.  Had probably only just changed up from the Harley WLA's and Indians from WW2.

Thanks Mono
Yes, on my own militare I have found that good compression while riding on a cool morning allows a higher top speed.  About 5 km/h more.
Cheers

Your Nuovo Falcone / Venier custom NF on Bike Exif

Gday all
Here's a link to an article in Bike Exif on a custom NF by Venier Customs
Their main changes appear to be body work.  Frame, engine and running gear remain standard.

Mono 
Your website is a great look at your N Falcone and other machines.
Thanks for posting the link.
Do you have more than one N Falcone?  If so, do they all perform the same  (or similar)

Votre site Web est un bon aperçu de votre N Falcone et d’autres machines.
Merci d'avoir posté le lien.
Avez-vous plus d'un N Falcone?
Si oui, ont-ils tous la même performance (ou similaire)?

Interesting pics thanks gents.
The blokes standing up:  any idea what kind of military they are?  Their helmets look something  like a tank helmet, but I'm just guessing

Banquo - fine tales yet again.
Scottish Tourism should have you on the payroll.

That's a yarn and a half Banquo.  A fine write-up, and I enjoyed looking up "shoogly".
Good pics of your falc on the wing - you can't see she's running rough.
