 Posted: 17:50 - 07 May 2010 Post subject: Bandit Mania - shop for bandit owners obviously..... |
 |
|
before i say anything i have no afiliation with bandit mania, not even bought anything from them before this:
I recently noticed that my collector box had rotted as per usual on the bandit as the collect joints are mild steel but the rest is stainless. Anyway after weighing up the options it was either at least £250 for a new set of copied parts which may or may not fit very well or take a chance and pay BM £90 to cut the old pipes and re-weld in stainless parts. Obviously i went for the £90 option.
tuesday night i managed to (eventually) get the downpipes off (first time since new in 1998 so not easy). Collector and link pipe had well and truely rotted and just crumbled.
Wednesday I couriered them to bandit mania.
Thursday i got an email at 10am to say that BM has received them and would deal with them in due course. 2.30pm i had another email saying they had been done and are being returned.
Friday 9am they arrive on my door step.
Thats what i call service. there was no waiting just get the job done and get them back to me asap. Cant fault them at all.
If you own a bandit and have the same issue, which you will eventually, have no hesitation in using bandit mania.  ____________________ Current : '08 Yamaha FZ1s

Just to second the OP, they are indeed good - got an amazing deal on genuine Suzuki SV lowers from them, half what Suzuki would have charged and - crucially - with the fitting kit. ____________________ Previous: 2002 Honda CB500 (sold), 2007 Suzuki SV650SK6 (crashed), 2005 Yamaha FZ6 Fazer (sold).

yep, a nice smooth circle of weld. part of the service is also supplying 8 new exhaust bolts (handy as i destroyed 2 of mine on removal), a heat shield, 4 header gaskets, 1 link pipe gasket and new clamp.  ____________________ Current : '08 Yamaha FZ1s

Anyway, after this mod the whole system is stainless. ____________________ Current : '08 Yamaha FZ1s
