So I finally found a bike that didn’t break the bank, was interesting an in good shape. A work college and my boss comute on bikes and have been trying to talk me into getting a bike. Used vehicle prices in America are RIDICULOUS. 2012 600 Super sports for 10K+ USD… Really???
I found this little Gem in a dealer about an hour out of town. The first owner drove it fron new in 2006 for about 7 years and put 8600 miles on it. He then stored it. The inside of the tank looks new and unbelievably the wheels and lower parts of the bike look very nice. The previous owner was very careful with it and at 80 years old he sold it to the dealer. 4500 USD got me out the door. I then replaced the 13 year old tires. Its a GSXF 750 Katana. The Oil and air cooled engine make it very simple.
It looks brand new! Nice.
My god. Haven’t seen one of those in years.
And You would think that Lightning does not strike twice…
Yesturday I was talking to a dealer about how expensive the new bikes had become. He then told me he had something coming in I might like… He bought it from a guy and sold it to me within an hour…
Super Clean 2008 Suzi Bandito Grande 1250. I don’t know what mods the previous user did but it like to have pulled my arms off the sockets… It’s got 10-year-old tires that the dealer is replacing (free of charge) and it needed service so unfortunately I can’t have it till next week. I am stocked!
Does mean you now have two bikes… Or have you swapped the Kat for this one?
Sold as a Bandit here, everyone I know who has had one raves about them and reckon they are bulletproof
I’ve had 6 bandits. 600, 1200, 1250.
Amazing bikes. I tuned the 600 so much it blew up nearly everytime i rode it. Man that bike was rapid though
You are on to me… i now have 2 ancient Suzukies. I may get rid of the Kat… im limited by parking to 2 bikes. The Kat no longer fits the "Do Everything " role. Now i want a really sporty bike…
We need Photographic Evidence
Christ I’ll have to dig out the photo albums lol. I definitely have pics of my red 1200 with the bad paint job and the 600. But the others I’d have to go look
