Hey everyone. Been lurking around the forum for a few months but never really posted. Being that I own a 'real' bike now it seems like the right time to get involved.
So I bought my first 'big' bike this week, a 97 Bandit 600 in red. Not in perfect condition, but has been looked after well for a 15 year old bike. I'm really happy with it for what I paid and everything, but with a few months until I get my license there are a few things I'd consider doing to it, and just wondered if anyone who's had a bandit could suggest anywhere. I know Bikers would be the obvious choice for standard parts but I'm after a seat like the one in the pic linked below, and I can't find one ANYWHERE. I'm also considering a belly pan, however I'm not sure yet about that, the seat is the important thing.

Also, if anyone knows here I might be able to get a really stubby style exhaust like the one in the pic that would be awesome too, I get the feeling I'd probably be paying a bit though. |

Link doesn't work but I'm gonna guess on the seat.
I got one from these guys, very pleased with it.
