Bandit

[JonB_5]

I have changed the back of my bike, with a tail tidy, new raised seat, hi - level carbon exhaust, small number plate, and soon a chrome chain guard. It looks sweet in my opinion but i am still to find a convincing change to make to the front of the bike that really takes my fancy. Any ideas??

[byke95]

Post some pics of what you've done, that'll help!

[JonB_5]

O.k will take some after work and post them!

the twin chrome lights at the front look smart,i havent touched my 1 yet dont know what to get first?[/img]

[greatmoorred]

hey 3806danny how are you finding the bandit ?. After looking around at lots of bikes i have decided that i am going to try and get one ?

[planet rider]

ive got twin lights on the front of mine but iam thinking of changing them to 2 large bates type like on the speed triple. ive just changed my rear end so ive got twin rear lights that makes the back end look sweet,also got a high level exhaust renthals

check out the bandit owners site some of the members have pics of there bikes so will give you some ideas..

its very easy to ride,but the only thing is my carbs kept iceing i think due to it being 33hp instead of 80bhp,i think,its a good cheap bike 4 the right money

If you're considering twin headlights just make sure they are decent ones, else don't go out in the dark because some of them are crap.
The large Bates are ideal or if you've got £250 these are the bollox https://www.oem-uk.com/acatalog/Billet_Lights.html

look a lot better on the bigger picture option and even better in real life

Heres some pictures of my bike, the next things i want are a Belly Pan, and some gold renthal bars, plus i want to powdercoat my wheels although im really not sure what colour? Any opinions. I got my exhaust from Carbon Can Company at the NEC, just 150. Everything else is from Banditmania.

Buell-style twin spots all the way

johnb 5 were did u get your seat?

[JonB_5]

I got my seat from PP Seat, something like that anyway, it was a Birthday present from my parents, we had to send the old one off and they re-covered it, it cost 140, which seems a lot but i love it!

Any one who can work wonders with photoshop fancy giving the wheels a paint, much appreciated!

jees thats a nice bandit

[chris-red]

Nice bike, I have the same bike (without the add ons).
I love the seat
I suggest, gold for the wheels.
Belly pan and hugger.
Twin headlights maybe and the gold bolts for the engine, and the little plastic covers below the tank can also be replaced with metal ones.
