1/10th the engine capacity of the Bandit - it might not get back up my driveway, and that's nearly flat! I think the CBR250 looks better (so long as the exhaust can is replaced) and has a bit more oomf. The CB400 is even better but costs twice as much as the 250 (nearly into Bandit territory in fact).

I think you may be a tad disappointed with the power output .

Hmm, capacity is about a pot, and some of us know a pot is never enough, shit, neither is a schooner...

I hate how sarcasm is hard to get across online.... Any tips on how I can make it more obvious next time?
Seriously, I bought a bandit, you really think I would want this....

might have helped. Maybe you meant it

I used to have a ride-on mower that made more power than that!
It would certainly make you appreciate the Bandit more after stepping off something like that.

I had a GS500, great bike but it helped me to appreciate the power of the bandit without needing to ride a 125cc
Sorry, I'll try and use more emoticons...
