Its just a survivor, polished it up a bit and some new decals.

I bought the one recently on Ebayhttp://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160599111244It came with a Shot Gun II seat with Falcon stamped on the back and so mine must have been sold as a Falcon. Looks like your Falcon decals probably were the original ones thenCheers Steven
Well I originally wanted it basically for the wheels crank/BB and headset which are heading straight on my Mk1 Pro Burner . But it's a nice little bike and a project for the future. Tange Seiki bottom bracket, Sugino cromo crank dated 83, shot gun II seat, Tange seat clamp, fluted straight seat post, orig CW large bars.Nearly all the rust has come off, a couple of areas will need a soak and the chrome on the seat post is buggered so that will need a rechrome at a later date as will the bars.It'll be stickered with the Rhino 3 decals , as the Falcon ones don't do the quality of the F+F justice. Even the forks have a weird tappering.Steven
Thanks for the info on the decals, I've a couple of other builds on the go so I'll be tackling the Rhino prob next year. Hope it turns out as sweet as yours
That looks fantastic now ant some nice tweeks there well done now get it ridden
