When i can suss out how to resize fotos on here i will post some updated shots of the Blandit, i had it repainted last year and fitted frame mounted twin spots, went for an oldskool styley with a red/white/black slabside vibe paint scheme, a set of thug yokes and some mild mods in the trouser department to push her up into the 170 rwbh area.....

I Like that a lot mate. Shame about the weather as ever.

MMM's shot is a photoshop job mate.

The powder coated arm matches the fram perfectly now. Looks factory. Tasty.

That a spondon gull arm is it not?? I had not yet seen a bandit one and am still contemplating one for next year.

For 2007 im in a dilema, cant make my mind up to either put it back to all black as in the first foto (2005),just keeping the red shock n calipers. Or just fit another top yoke and clip-ons for that cafe racer vibe ??? What do you guys reckon ?? Im in the middle of fabing the old Acerbis fairing to except some decent headlights and moulding a clock mount into it while i decide.

Maybe introduce the red to the tail as well? Otherwise, you can't go wrong with all black mate. Get the lights sorted and keep the straight bars I reckon.

exile
26-02-2007, 05:58 PM
The clip-ons idea as come about due to the oldskool paint scheme, plus aint seen any B12s with'um on. Ive got this urge for roll reversal (not cross-dressing you sick cunts) but to race up the flat bared B12 and flat bar the Gixer. The trouble is on the 12....it will drop the front by 3" to 4" and as the back is already hyked its gonna be twicky as fuck and a tadge painfull over distance. Back to black is the easy option, mean as fuck but its so yesterday darlings

I'm with ya now, take a bandit to a race style. Funny you should say that, Rapid revealed this to me in a letter they got about a Suzuki model I had never heard of:

Read the full thing.......

Did anybody else see it? They didn't release it here but New Zealand got it.

I was chasing up one of them last year, but no local dealers were interested in getting one in for me. They were only $10,000 NZ too. Japan and NZ only got them apparently.

Been thinking about asking my brother to find one for me. They look pretty good even stock.

26-02-2007, 08:29 PM
That pic ain't stock Large, the standard ones look much like an 80's cafe racer. Not a bad effort at all for a factory model.
Plus a 1200 Old Skool Bandit for $10,000 NZ new is a damned good price

I cant remember what the feck they call this model in the UK ?? but its rare out on the roads !
It aint my cuppa, its like the bastard child of a slaby and a B12 ...IMHO its a shite steel frame and rancid body styling

SPOT ON fella :D, ive got a soft spot for Z seat units, i've got a Z650 unit ready for my Blade project and ive just scored a complete 636 seat unit/subframe mucho cheapo for the 7/11 project

Ive spent all day in the garage today and achieved fuck all :(
I wired in a remote ignition and alarm and then i gotta thinking about moving the fuse box under the tank instead of in the subframe mainly for cosmetics really as im abit anal when it comes to wiring. I like a special to look factory finished even with her clothes off. This is gonna put me a week behind and fuck up a 1 off loom for something that no one will ever see, but i know its there and thats what counts ;). My looms already very sparse with just the bare essentials for it to run and in moving the fuse box will loose about another 12" of loom

Power to weight ratio..... its just a shame about the fat twat riding it:D

exile

Im off down to T.E.S engineering tomora to sort out another top yoke and clip-ons for that cafe racer vibe. Im gonna fit the thug yokes n fat bars off this on the 7/11 project[8D]
Ive got 5 straight days off now to finish the bike off. Just gotta sort this wiring loom out, remote ignition, alarm, yoke swap, weld the exhaust up and then im out to play for the summer [^]

I think I will have to pop along to unatec and pick myself up one of those zedbutt tail units to bring with me to Auss, will go a treat with my fighter I have planned.

six weeks and counting

So much for me having 5 straight days to finish the bike:( Spent allday yesterday sorting out the 7/11 project and then got pist. Woke up today in no fit state to walk n talk let alone do electrics. I got a life at about 4pm and manged about 2 hours on the loom before the Jack Daniels started calling me. Tommorow morn i'll be out on the blade for a breakfast run and then down the pub for the football in the afternoon. Thats day 3 fucked, giving me 2 days to squeeze 5 days work in......BOLLOX

The looms almost finished now thank fuck, after cunting around with 3 different fuse boxes and locations for it i finally settled on the stock item [:o)] Im seriosly thinking of making a fresh loom from scratch using this one as a map so that i have no solderd joints and new multi-plugs. The only thing that governs the loom at the mo is the 2 std switch gear connector blocks and im due to replace these with ZX9 or FZR items, so what the fuck, why not hey !!!

Yet another weekend off and NO work done on the loom, fucking mothers days bollox saw that off[V]
BUT there is a light at the end of the tunnel......
GOD BLESS THE PIKEYS :D i came down to my AA van this morning to go to work and the jipo bastards have ripped off my rear bumper, cut all the electrics,stole the spare wheel and the towing hook , So i gott the next few days off while its in for repair [8D]

This is the loom so far, ive cut it down to a total of 17 wires , relocated the fuse box on the temporary plate under the tank, the starter solanoid and remote ignition box are going in the seat hump with the battery.The standard loom is so over engineered its unreal, to many earths, wires that double back ect ect. Once ive finished the loom as know it works without setting the bike on fire :Dim gonna use it as a template and build one from scratch with new cable and connectors keepin it colour coded as Mr Suzuki intended[8D]

How fuckin frustrated can i get in 1 fuckin day :(
Overloaded the garages electric by running 2 x strip lights,2 x 200w heaters, radio, soldering iron and the wifes hair dryer. So had to fumble about in pitch black to try and get out the garage:(. Spent 1 hour ripping fuses out of all her electricals just to find a 13A fuse:(I then realise that ive locked the garage keys in the fucking garage and the mrs has got the spare key and she's 6 fuckin miles away :( So i sorts the key out and comes back to find that ive left electric on in the garage including the soldering iron that i knocked over in the dark earlier:( melted all the rear light/indicator section of the loom into the non slip mate on my fuckin bench:(Just thank fuck it did'nt start a blaze!!! After sorting the mess out i then realised that the soldering iron had burnt out FOR FUCKS SAKE !!! So i shoots off to the DIY store for a new one and splashes out £25 on a gas blow torch cum soldering iron..on the way home i got stuck in the mother of all trafic on the M4 till 7pm. Gets back into the garage finally to use my new tool and guess what......I AINT GOT NO FUCKIN BUTANE GAS :(:(:(:(:(
BOLLOX to it all, im getting down a bottle of JD:D

Achieved fuck-all again on the bike, BUT did score a Noz kit today for £250 in a deal i did selling my Blade to Terry-motto. The poor fella came round to way me in for his TT ticket, while i was on the fone to my mate Steve (with the Triumph framed Gixer)and mentioned my Blade was going on the market soon. And BOSH its gone and so has his nitrous kit off his 11 :D. This has now forced my hand to get the bike done and dyno'd before the TT for sure ;)
