well i swapped my old white cbr stunter for a bandit 1200 the other week:) so its time to start playing about and getting her to look pretty for the road!! any ideas where to start???
Oooh look!
A White Helmet to go with Terry’s Purple Plums;):D:D
Welcome back Adam, been a while mate:cool:
Well you have a bandit 12 the first bit of kit has gotta be a vest :w00t:
adam h? Who are you??? Welcome back!!!
Hello pal, as you know bandits are like lego, what subbie you got in mind? Plent of cheap front ends on ebay, mine was a gixxer k5 pretty easy swop.
F*ck doz that mean your coming back on the road, the friday nite off club aint been the same without ya :hehe:
I recon a JMC swinger looks great on a blandit, did I mention I got one for sale
Mr Moto, how’s your plums?
So I guess you’ll be moving on a bit quicker with your project now? How was the engine on the blade?
terry i’ll give ya a bell about the jmc!! ive got some gixxer k4 forks sat at home but will i need the yokes off the gixxer or use the bandit ones??
dunno about a subbie yet either! i put it on my bench for the first time today and started stripping it down!
Plums are ok now mate, but I got a swallon tendon in me groin that dont seem to want to get better :crazy:
Bl*de engine and frame is all good, so I’m gona rebuild ‘El-Bastedo’ and put it back on the road
Cant really do much on the fighter at mo mate, still cant move about (lifting etc) to well
AdamH, cheers for the call Fella…have a measure up mate
You’ll be best off with the gixxer ones, the bandit yokes will be too narrow to accommodate the centuries. I might have the diagram somewhere so you can have the measurements, they should be at work. You might get away with pressing in the bandit stem?
Grion strain - ouch! That can take months to heal. You got decent meds?
That blade looked ! So now you got 2 bikes in your shed?
well, actually made a start last week and starting to strip it down, need to source some gsxr yokes so i can play about with the front end, hopefully one day this week i’ll measure the back end and see if mr moto’s jmc swinger will fit!
got busy with an angle grinder the other day and cut down the rear subframe, i’ll put pics up when my broadband gets activated in my room, cut it down and have made it so the bottom tube is at steeper angle, had it welded up and tidied it up so thats the rear sub sorted!!!
taken the front end off of my old yzf 750r and pressed the bandit stem into the yoke, so got a decent front end with upside downies all sorted, just the risers and a few more fiddly bits to sort out there!
getting a jmc swinger from el tel tommorow so will get that sorted and lined in next week, then put it away safe and drop the engine out of the frame,
i’m not back in dorset till next week so will get the pics up then:D
What seat unit you going for?
its a ducati race unit,(dunno what model its off) looks like a batwing, i’ll chuck a pic on next week:D
heres some pics:D
im having to use a lot of imagination on that one Ads:w00t:
yeah me too fella!!!:w00t: how you doing?? still on the R1???
Looking really good. Are you junking the airbox and switching to individual air filters?
i will do eventually, i cant work on her this week as i’m off to the metisse factory for a few days, but hopefully i’ll get the engine out soon and get some stuff sent off to the coaters!!
