Hi everyone,

My name is Ant and I picked up my new 1250 bandit yesterday. Extremely happy with it. Got a few things in mind to add to it in the future, not much though as its great looking as it is now. Anyway I'd like to try and find out as much as I can about these bikes and this site looks like a good place for info.

Cheers.

Ant McD.

Welcome Ant this is a great site with lots of friendly advice and a little banter. I have had my faired bandit for just over a year now and the guys here have been a huge help.

Thanks all for the warm welcome.

I don't know if Grey has ever been regarded as a fast color, but it sure looks good. I got the bike with a scorpion muffler installed, so I can actually hear the bike and it has a very nice note. Ordered a radiator guard for it last night, bought a rego label holder roll and number plate cover and fitted them today. Plenty of other additions to come but nothing over the top. I like the way the bike looks now and plan on keeping it looking standard for a while at least. Once I work out how to upload a pic, I'll do so.... Very Happy

Cheers,

Ant.
