I am deciding to go with a 2000+ Suzuki Bandit 1200s this coming spring but have a prospect that is lingering in my mind.
Anyone have any experience with these bandits engine wise and that. From the little bit I read the seem to be bullet proof and very reliable. I am sick of riding in the monkey trying to F--- a foot ball position of my R6 i bought over a year a go. I like the way the bike looks, the accessories available, and to me lack of real difference then the new bandit. I know the new one has an all new engine, FI, and water cooling, but I have sat on both and to me they feel the same. I like the bandit because its perfect for me comfort wise and the bars are perfect. I came across an 2004 Kat 750 same color and everything as the one I had for $3900 dollars. I didn't look at the miles though
I also looked at a 1995 Honda VFR750 with 20k on it and they wanted $4900. I like the VFR, the Kat is tried and true I rode one for a year as a first bike, and the bandit to me is a good bike as well.
Give me some input and I will make a sound decision, I am not looking to finance more than 5k because I want to keep my payments kind of low.
I currently have an 07 R6s with Genmar risers, Leveloneracing custom carbon fiber exhaust(very similar to Racefit Growler), K and N filter, PC3, -1 in front +2 in the back sprockets, Road attack tires, Graves style fender eliminator(made from home depot Adjustable deck joist), heavier bar ends, and shimmed rear for 120,70,17 tire up front. The bike has 3000 miles on it and I bought it when I was in the military, I didn't have much of a chance to ride it because deployments take a lot of time.
What do you think I can get for it.
