Bandit 600cc, 2000, 20,000 miles, fsh, all MOTs

Went and saw 4 bandits and decided on this...
the pics dont do it justice

1500 quid...............dealer

Passed my test and this is my 1st bike....when i picked
it up i was nervy but mins later loved it, so in control
all the way home.
Last sunday took it to Luss and back...about 40 miles
and it was a buzz all the way and back, pleased
with it. Very Happy

I paid £1500 for a 51 plate bandit in the spring of 07, It's not that good a price. It had less miles too.

I'd say having bought it from a dealer and in that condition it was worth it!

Private i expect it would go nearer £1250 but bandits can hold their value too.

is it just me or does that bike look like it has an oil leak between the head and cylinders ??

could be from the piss pipes on the front of the head...

i'd want a close look to decide if i'm correct (it could be road water/shite tho) ..

get someone local to check if you're not sure

Hi, looks well cleaned, get some acf50 if yer an all weather biker.
and i've used an old rugby sock around my chain (keeps the flexibility of the chain)
Planning any mods yet?

happy rides

Everyone else agrees it is a nice bike , who cares what the price tag was if hes pleased with what he got.

My first bike was a suzi Bandit - Remember picking it up -
Looked good........
Found it quite heavy - leaving it in Brighton was a pain on the hills.
But it was a fab bike, If i could have a 2nd hack it would be the bandit again.

Nice Smile

Like the little additions.

Was very much considering a bandit for my first bike, but the GPZ came up first - the guy who I got the GPZ from went onto a B6, was very envious when I took him down to Surrey to pick it up - sounds glorious Smile
