Mate I shouldn't even have to say it but your nuts
Wow, just wow. That is bikeporn at its finest [:p]
it hasn't been an easy decision to make mate. It may not even sell anyway. I currently have x3 bikes and the Bandit is just sitting there, I recently serviced it and fitted the new resvoirs and then just put the bike cover back on it ! Seems a waste to have it just sitting in the shed.
Not fussed if I keep it so no harm seeing if anyone is keen. Knowing what it is worth is the hard part, I know the time and money spent but not everyone will appreciate that
I want to cry. no fuck it I'm going to go and cry.
It's very hard to put a price on fighters mate that's for sure and I can understand why your thinking about it but I reckon it's better to have it and not need rather than not have it when you need it.....does that make sense
Good luck with the sale mate.
your bike is stunning ,,honestly u will wish once youve sold it u hadnt ,,couldnt you sell one of the other 2x bikes,,,only my 2 cents
Thanks guy's. Pete, my other 2 bikes are 1 a brand new VFR 1200 and the other is a period 5 build in lots and lots of pieces. If there's no interest it's no big deal but it would be nice to throw some money at the period 5 bike.
I have a price point in mind but don't want to put it out there in case I look foolish, what do you boy's think it might be worth and please be completly honest as I will not be offended in any way :D
I'm not overly sure but I think at around $7 - $8k it would be a fair buy given the bits and pieces and work etc etc.
Thats one of my favourite bandits....8k has to be fairly fair price.
Its proabaly worth more...it just finding that buyer.
If you're not in a rush to sell just take your min price, add $1-2k, and let it sit on the usual sites and see if anyone bites. Also gives you wiggle room if someone is tempted but wants to bargain.
It's a bloody hot bike though, I reckon just hold onto it.
hey mozza, great job mate, stunning looking bike. i'm interested but not sure how easy it would be to get it registered in queensland, any ideas out there?
for Tassie the only thing stopping it passing rego is that I removed the front indicators after I got it registered last time round and its due for a new rear tyre. Not sure what QLD rego checks look for.
Most rego checks are usually lights, horn, indicators, tyres, brakes etc.
here's my attempt at a mods list. If I can remember everything :D
Rear sets
stage 3 jet kit
pod filters
Barnett kevlar clutch kit
08 GSXR throttle mech with modified cables
08 GSXR switch gear
08 GSXR brake master
08 GSXR clutch master
08 GSXR front forks
08 GSXR front wheels polished
Carbon fibre front guard
BXP top billet triple with 25mm offset
BXP billet risers
BXP billet resovoirs
Pazzo levers (short)
Acewell digital dash
ANB bars
Bar end mirrors
Phantom 2 headlight
custom stainless headlight bracket
steering dampner
Billet fuel filler cap (race style)
custom dash bracket
07 Yamaha R6 subframe (modified)
07 Yamaha R6 carbon fibre bodywork (rear)
Fender eliminator
Recovered seats
cam cooler lines
Braided brake and clutch lines
Renthal front and rear sprockets (geared down)
Gold "o" ring chain
Billet race spec rear shock (Wilbers)
Hel oil cooler
custom stainless headers
Yoshimura titanium tri oval (shortened)
Custom push button ignition
clear brake light
stainless engine bolt kit
carbon fibre engine covers
Painted swingarm, chain guard, sprocket carier, top and bottom triple trees.
I think that goes most of the way to covering all mods and items [:p]
Sometimes being lower middle class is ok with me...I do as I'm told and nobody ever expects much from me....but fuck I hate being poor. In the scheme of things $7500 is fuck all for a fine piece of engineering like that. But it may as well be $750 000 cause I have no hope of seeing it in my garage any time soon.
Hope it goes to a loving home.
Fuck I wish I had the cash mate I would jump on it
What you were thinking as opposed to what you wrote.Quote:

I'll swap ya my XJR1300 for it.
(Feel free to tell me to fuck right off I don't mind!)
I seriously cant believe that this hasn't been snapped up yet!!!
Mozza. We have a member very interested in your bike. He's just trying to get back into the forum so expect some conatct soon.
i can see myself given the harleys and trumpies a good flogging on her on the 4 or 5 charity runs a year i partake in up here in the NW of WA. Check your inbox need to chat
Sorry mate not real keen on the XJ idea, the only reason I've had it up for sale is because it never gets ridden and I could use the funds to push my period 5 build along a little quicker.Quote:

Got her out for a ride last week at thought I should put a more recent pic up for all to see.
bump !!
I couldn't figure out how to edit the thread heading, the Bandit is now sold and heading to NSW. Good luck Paul, shes's a good thing ;)
Silly bugga, she was a thing of beauty.
Hope you got the coin you where happy with mate.
I sold it too cheap to be honest, but what's done is done. It wasn't getting used and it was a shame to have it just sitting there. I hope the new owner is happy with it, he'll see it for the first time in the flesh next week.
In my opinion he's picked up a bargin.
Hey Mozza, look what we came across at the GP. Good looking bike mate. the new owner is from NSW by the looks of it and he doesn't mind riding it either.

I cant believe how filthy it is !!!
Good to see a pic mate, tanks. He sent me a txt from the GP saying it was there and I asked for a pic but he didn't send one through.
He plans to do a bit of a tidy up on it over the next 12 months - repaint engine and chassis etc. What did you think of it up close ?
It looks like he has it close to how I sold it - just with way more dirt !
The bike looked good mate. i believe I heard someone mentioning they wanted to return with tools and taking the exhaust system, lol
