    Think you'll find it's technically not a bandit. A TNAB, in fact.

    A Suzuki T'NAB?... I have subcribed to Hitcher's thread and will give a read tomorrow.
    Real kean on this paticular 1250 tnab, just have to sit tight and see what Colemans come back with...if it does not happen for what ever reason, there is another option.

    Basically a Bandit with GSXR suspenders, (+brakes?) and some touring related bling.

    H found a novel way of disposing of his. Has a Z1, now, another nice semi-neked offering.

    They were always a nice engine, only got better with the injection.

    Not, y'understand a match for a big V twin...

    It has that tourer screen going on, panniers and polished rims and best of all, it's black.

    I still love mine ..

    Yes, that's pretty - I'm not that impresed with the full fairing - I think the bikini looks better ... but that's a great touring bike

    Emails thus far have been favourable, and after reading Hitcher's threads on the bike, I'll be making an appointment with Mr Bank Man later......
    Anne does not like my option 2...

    Yes I have seen that, add an extra $2-2500 for the bits the one at Colemans has on it, and it's $15995.
    I may try and neg a better price since its been on the floor for a while, full payment upon ride away must work in my favour......possibly?

    The std zorst is a tad bulky, what extras has the Colemans item got other than the luggage?

    And not nescessarily, the shop usually makes more if you finance it through them. That's why HD got into such trouble early in the GFC, they're basically a finance house that happens to make bikes.
