Looks good enough Thumbs Up Dont like the Bandits with the fairings though, and if you can get a 1200 why bother with the 600?

yes, I do want a bandit.

This seems very very cheap, and could well be a bargain.

Is it worth bidding on?

Get some quotes for a Bandit 12, they are a much lower insurance group than the sports 600's.

Maybe you could email him to see if he would except your offer?

waye aye man.

If he sends me an offer its fine.

I only bidded £1795 knowing the reserve was higher.

But RE the 1200...

..I would die, I am far too young and stupid to trust myself with a 1.2L bike.

Oh and I only passed my test in November last year so have very little experiance.

Yes, red IS a gay colour, but price (and at that price) is a much more deciding factor.

Because I am not exactly a small person and would find a CBR uncomfortable and again I dont want to spend £800 insuring one.

My current bike (ER-5) costs me £250 to insure a year and a bandit would cost me Not much more (infact I think its a bit less).

I dont want to try and run before I can walk and would rather take this biking malarky step by step.

I know some people my age are very cocky and jump onto bikes they THINK they can handle but thats just not me.

I have heard nothing from the seller, but its not the only bandit in the world.

Also I would prefer a nice naked bandit.

It can't just be me seeing the irony in people saying get the bigger one, when they normally all say don't get the bigger one.. Smile
