    Bought a new battery for the ZX today. Might be the first ride of the year tomorrow. :D

    More pics! :)

    Also what did you think of the bandit? They are on my relatively short list of bikes I would like to get for my next one.

    The Bandit was/is a wonderful bike. Powerful, fast, comfortable. Just didn't need three bikes. Oh, wait. Now I have three again. :oops:

    But I really did enjoy and miss my Bandit. I sold it to a friends son-in -law so I keep tabs on it still. :)

    Ditto on the Bandit, I have an 04 1200S (bought in 04) and have it set up for touring. Taller windshield, taller gearing (16/43) Full Givi hard cases, taller bars, throttle lock and home made hi-way pegs (bad knees). I have ridden it from London ON. to Indianapolis 3 times to watch the Moto-GP races and enjoyed every minute.
    A big plus is that they are so damned inexpensive to buy. If I were in the market for another I'd definitely go with the fuel injected though.
    This is the way I had it set up for the runs to Indy.

    Maxim, if you don't already know about Dale Walker and Holeshot you might want to check it out. Lot's of neat stuff for your Bandit and Dale's very reputable. I've bought quite a bit from him.

    I've heard of Dale, he's the Bandits equivalent of this website for XJ's.

    Awesome to continue to hear good things about the Bandits. From what I gather over the 'net it seems like they are a modern, do-all, comfortable bike with loads of torque whenever you want it :)
