I'm gonna die (bought another bike)

Bones · Dec 17, 2007

07 Suzuki Bandit 1250 / ABS $6000
Less than 3k miles, goodies include; Gen-Mar Risers, Cortech tank bag, Marsee 15L tear drop tank bag, Wolfman Mini-Beta rear bag (perfect for the weekend to the dragon), spare oil filter, chain spray, and 4 qts of AMSOL synthetic. All of that plus 5yr extended warranty!!!

This is what I am going to buy, it's in Baton Rouge, LA. I have a topcase that I have on my VFR, I can use on this once I buy the racks and I will set it up like the one below bag wise. (about $350) Just can't pass it up for the ABS and extended warrenty. MSRP on these is $8300 without ABS and $8800 with ABS

07 Bandit 1250 $7500 nice bike, just not as great of a deal compared to the one above.

I am regretfully placing my Bandit up for sale.

It is a red 07 non abs with the following upgrades:
Yoshimuira TRS slip on
Laminar Touring Lip
SW Motech Rear rack with Givi plate
SW Motech quick lock side racks
Givi E460 Top case and E21 side cases
Grip Puppies
Bikemaster Daytona bars with Pit Posse adjustable Height risers.

Bike Has 1600 miles and is in perfect condition.
I will deliver within 250 miles of Cincinnati OH for gas cost.
I hate to sell but we have decided to build a home so everything has to go for now.

GHEY

I can't afford what I wanted homo. 14K is steep for a bike let alone insurance.

No plastics to remove to change oil either. :flipoff1:

Those facts dont make that bike any less ghey !! :flipoff1:

Im sure they are nice and all that but I just dont like the Bandits , besides your the one spending money, get what you like bubba !!

Finally got it. Debadged 07, ABS, 2700 miles, extras are some bar risers and bags the PO sent me before shipment. That is a Marsee tank bag base. I am going to get the magnetic base if I can. I hate strap on's :lol3

I am going to love EFI. No plans to do any mods. I have a Twisted Throttle rear GIVI rack, 46L topcase and bags for a good solid week on the road.

EFI is fuggin great on a bike, you will certainly love that !! That'll be a sweet ride man, especially with all the long distance riding you talk about doing !!

I set it up last night

Things left to do:
Install volt meter
Hardwire GPS, and Radar (still need to buy radar and helmet display)
Grip heaters
12V plug

GIVI mount with my 45L top box on it. I got silver, wish I had got black as this has zero metalic in it and looks like poo! I will powder coat it along with a bunch of other small parts black or black chrome.

Plate on top box off

Plate off in 10 seconds with three quarter turn screws. slick

Tank bag. TONS of storage in this sucker. double ball RAM mount for GPS and future Radar (might mount it elsewhere)

Alaska Leather super fuzzy butt pad. Little large for this seat, but it'll be fine for my tiny arse.

Fawk a halloween costume, put that seat pad on your head, and you'll have the best afro I've ever seen, or stuff it down your drawers and go '70s style.

Retro bush would be funny. Side story is my friend Ryan that's having the party for him and his wife told me at an Iowa game his wife doesn't trim and it's "full" molaugh

FINALLY got a chance to ride this hooker today. I chopped through 6-10" of ice at the end of my drive to get out it was so nice today (60).

Bike is quiet as hell, real nice power. Engine and trans real smooth. Once on the interstate I got to roll on it and it's got tha torque people say they do!

It's so smooth I noticed twice I was at near 100 and it was at 5500rpms in 6th. Not even struggling. Cruising at 75-80 it's at 4500, love it

New screen is on order already, will get new grips this week. those are my only two gripes about it so far.
