Huddo's Bandit

[Gix11]

Paul (KKB) will probably be interested in this one. Huddo is working hard to get the bike running and ready for AFR and hardly ever gets on here anyway, so I took a few photos when I was at Supercharger's place at the weekend. As you can see it's coming together nicely.

[zx12argh]

That tail looks hot... whats it off?

What quarter mile times it doing right now? [:p]

[Gix11]

Augusta tail. The engine fired up first time after 7 years Paul. He was well happy. The custom LED tail lights look trick as well (handy being an electrician hey?). It's just time to strip it down, paint the frame and tail and get it back together for the run. He has loads more planned for it after the Run.

[Kamakazebusa]

I'm pleased.....the engine sat in the garage covered up for that long i sometimes forgot i had it....hahahaha. can't wait to see it finished.

[Gix11]

Clive, you coming down to the AFR this year to see it?

[Gix11]

Ok. Caught up with Brad last weekend. He had put the motor in and was just finishing up the wiring. He had also painted the tail flat black and put the LEDs in:

But while I was looking around the garage I found an alternative rear end for him - a VS commodore station wagon centre console:

It has vents for twins exhausts:

The perfect tail piece I told him, but he didn't seem convinced, so I think he's staying with the Augusta tail.

[WATEVR]

bwhahahahaaa...good one dont see why he didnt want to go with it!!

please dont give the germans ANY MORE idea`s[}:)]next thing we`ll know Arlen Ness will be using a set of 68 dodge wings on a Kwaka:D

Ohlins forks mate.

Cool I didn't think Ohlins made full forks for the bandit. Or did you steal them off a different bike and fit them?

[Gix11]

He stole them of another member (kamakazebusa) on here along with the rest of the parts. I'm pretty sure they are GSXR1100 replacement items. Am I right Paul?

[Kamakazebusa]

got it in one......for those who aren't aware.....UHmmm, bandits don't come out with USD forks. There Gixer Ohlins from a 95 1100 if i remember right. I get dibs on first ride.....Hehehe

Bloody ohlins site is useless:(. Tryed to search for them and the only front end stuff they do seems to be springs the lying bastards. does anyone know who the ohlins dealer in aus is? I think i'll give them a call see if they can tell me the truth.
