There sure are some beautiful bikes in here! Roy and Phil - how do you like your Givi gear? In retrospect would you have done/purchased anything differently?
Well........
I like the bags. I am glad for the flat black finish due to my feet hitting them on mount/dismount. One thing I would have done different is to contact Craig at Givi "FIRST" due to my dealer not knowing anything about the 2007 Bandit line up with the Givi gear. Once that was organized, after a few returns and such, I got what I wanted.
On the bike, I could only ask for one thing different - a better seat - of which Corbin and Sargent have promised to deliver on in the Spring of 08. My dealer was a bit ignorant on the bike being a new model. My opinion, "know your butt from a hole in the ground" before you try selling it.
They did not know the seat was adjustable let alone how to adjust it or how to check the coolant level. That left my confidence level in the shop at a low bar at the beginning.
I am getting 47MPG on 96 horsepower. I would have really liked it if Suzuki could have gone the extra mile and squeaked out a little bit more and given me 200MPG with 150 horsepower - that would have been nice
Overall - COMPLETELY satisified with everything.....including next year's seat revision.
