Well as you can see, its a Bandit6 and a damn nice one too! 1996 model, 8000 miles, completely standard apart from the oil cooler cover and a rear hugger. Absolutely gorgeous, I'm in love!

Will be paying the rest off next week, when it'll get a fresh set of tyres, new MOT and a service before I pick her up. Wont be able to afford the restriction for a little while longer so that will wait a few weeks, its not my 18th for another 7 weeks anyway, waiting to get my 2nd year no claims before insuring it.

She sounds a little dull, but thats the stock can for you I suppose. Think a louder, but not stupidly loud, can will be in order for the future!

As you can tell, I'm over the moon, just thought I'd share it with you lot. Hope you like her as much as I do!

Very nice for a 1996 model.

Personally I'm not a fan of the reds, but still it's a Bandit and you can't go wrong with one of those.

True. The red does not look the best, but at least its different to the typical metallic blue or black.

I'm happy with it anyway. Just sold my Aprilia this morning as well, so I should have her sometime next week!

Been looking at belly pans, some of them look pretty good, just need to find a place where they can be bought.

I've been looking for decent Bandit groups, so far I have found www.banditmania.co.uk but I dunno, they all look rather amateur.

Looks great for a almost 10 year old bike. I think Twin headlights and a racecan are in order....
