2005 Suzuki Bandit. Great all round tourer that can get up an go. Xtras include corbin gunfighter single seat with lockable compartment, Carbon Fibre front guard, Tinted screen, Heated grips.Ventura pack rack and tankbag. Yoshi tri oval exhaust that sounds great. Comes with all original gear as well. Full fairing.
Has been maintained maticulously with oil and filter changes every 5000 k. Runs perfectly. New Michellen 2ct dual compund tyre on rear only done 1500K. Normally get 12000 out of a rear. Good front with 50% wear.
This is a great bike that has served me well. Someone will get a bargain.
New bike on order so it has to go.

I was about to put mine up for sale but mine pales in comparison to what you have.
All I can say is these are really grunty bikes, and they put up with a lot.

The engine has been around for a while and lasts forever, and with the old GSXR 1100 parts I believe you can hot them up more than most current sports bikes. There are some turbo kits out there, and a the odd supercharger too if you want to go really crazy.

The frame is stiff as anything, the suspension isn't bad, they can sip fuel if you're easy on the throttle hand, but when you redline it in first on the motorway the sound will make any boy-racer go either green with envy or white with fear.

Some lucky sod is getting a bargain. I can't believe you aren't asking for three grand more.
