I've just got hold of my new toy, a 1996 Bandit 1200. She's very nice, 8600 miles and in very good nick. She's also got my name (sorta) on her number plate, so it really was fate.

So far I've only added a Scottoiler, but there is a bellypan, fly screen, hugger and rack/box to come.

Anywho, she doesn't have a name yet. Any suggestions?

On a cold winters morning when it won't start i'm sure you'll think of plenty of good names to call it.

with a low battery, as it stalls and then i slowly hear the starter motor slowing down as the battery drains away and i know i'll have to bump start it. its common name is "fucking piece of shit" (resisting the urge to boot it off the side stand) once it's fired up though we're best friends again Very Happy

I always found 'stupid' was a good name for my 1200 Bandit Smile

By the way, is that a TnT parked next to it in the second picture?

This bike is clearly a girl... so stop being cruel and suggesting boys names for Doris, she's getting quite upset!
