Thanks again to Gaz and Marjay for showing me how to upload photos properly. Karma given

Isn't it lovely? It's called Dave after my step dad who lent me the money.

Damn it!

Why doesn't it work!!!!!

Anyway - it's an '05 Black Bandit S With an alarm and scottoiler. Only six and a half thousand on the clock in very tidy condition.

Bit of a move up from a YBR 125!

He right clicked on the little red cross that appeared in your post then clicked 'properties'.

He then copied the URL you posted, pasted it into his browser and found a picture rather than an entire gallery. He pasted the URL to the picture into some [Img] tags.

Crying or Very sad

Thanks.

The rain stopped, so I have been out on it. Very very fun it was too, despite the sacirily strong wind. Feel like a proper biker now

Very Happy

I'm in Poole. We can go for a blast. Used to have a bandit as well.

Has to be dry though. I read somewhere that if rain gets in your boots it turns you homosexual. And I don't wanna risk it.

I prefer the naked bandits but i still have a softspot for that bike, will munch up europe if you ever feel the desire.

Bridgestone BT020/021's are very good on a bandit but will square off quicker than say a Pirelli Diablo (which is also a good tyre)

Bit like mine, though mine's a K3 model with 24k on the clock and has a few battle scars. Great 'day-to-day' bikes if you ask me. A proper workhorse that can do distance work no trouble.

Few tips. Strip the rear caliper and grease the retaining pin before it seizes. Check that the HT lead rubber seals are on properly before riding in heavy rain. Get a hugger & fenda-extenda thingy. Race pipes make it sound very nice indeed. Mr. Green Enjoy!
