Picked it up on Sunday morning with the help of Chad and Dave

01 Bandit 600S 9,??? miles Bone stock. Not bad for $2,300
Needs a little cleaning (which Dave has already started for me

) and rear brake pads and she is ready to go. It will need a shock rebuild on the front next winter though

Here she is and I decided to throw in a pic of the toy shed IE: Dave's garage with the lot of everything else!

Nice bike.

Very nice. Reminds me of my 2004 Bandit 1200S. Bandits are very good all around bikes. You should enjoy it.

Nice looking bike. I would just be scared to have all them toys around the Firebird. Sometimes things like handle bars and stuff will somehow reach out and touch the paint job of cars as it goes by.

I agree I give Dave G. sh*T all the time about the FIREHAWK storage container :'( Such a nice car with so much stuff to hurt it $:-\$

I think Greenwall should start charging for rental space in his garage. I say about $10 per tire. A motor bike is worth $20 a month, a 4-wheeler is worth $40 a month for storage

Price doubles for maintenance costs.

Yeah I actually will since I wont have to plan a weekend and spend the money for a couple hours drive and food in order to ride. I will just walk out my door and hop on and go

I will pay Dave by grabbing the tab for dinner etc. here and there!

:icon_lol:I have had my eye on those. I want to get some more opinions on the bandit forum and get some time on mine before I decide what I want.....other things on the list more important too!

GeoffWhite · « **Reply #17 on:** February 26, 2008, 08:47:25 am »

Bandit forum? I haven't been able to find one.

Rockin C Racing · « **Reply #18 on:** February 26, 2008, 08:59:30 am »

I use to be on a couple different ones. The one with the most information that I found was www.maximum-suzuki.com I haven't been there in a couple of years, so I don't know what it is like now.

Yep Maximum Suzuki is the one I am on, its bikes in general but focuses mostly on Katana's and Bandit's!

Well I heard that Roy got the MSF course completed, BUT we probably won't hear from him until 'Vegas next year (2009) ...

He is to busy to communicate with us via Message boards ...
