hello, my name is Ed and I'm an alcoholi...err...I mean...I just bought a 91' Bandit 400 as my first bike.  Been riding for a month now and has absolutely fell in love with riding.  Having a lot of trouble with the cluth coming outta first gear (especially stopped on a hill), but I hear that's normal with B4's...or rather just with noobs on bikes in general...

this board rocks my socks off, I've basically gotten my Bandit to run by following tips and tricks from people on this board.  So far I've changed my battery, replaced my clutch, swapped new oil pan, change the oil and oil filter....etc...you guys are great.

You can find me around seattle (north gate) in my white/red strip B4 with red helmet and red joe rocket jacket...I love to wave so don't be shy.  (that was the first thing I found out on the street...the waving...at first I thought riders were trying to tell me that my front tire was flat  :lol: )

once again, great board

I have been on this site for a little bit. All I can say is wow. I have never been on a more professional forum. I was reffered to this site from some of the guys on Max-zuki (another great bandit site). If you have questions they get answered no matter how dumb they are with no crap from the *****************.

Thanks for providing such a great site!

And please keep up the awesome work.

Hey y'all.  Been lurking for a while, neat site, lots of info.  I have a 2000 bandit 1200 that doesn't get ridden nearly enough, been riding bikes on and off-road for about 30 years.

Whats up all, well im young guy looking for a girl who can... Oh wait wrong boards :shock:

Anyways, I started riding an 02 bandit 600 when i was 17. I had it for a year and life came up and beat the hell out of my pocketbook, had to sell it. A few years later and a bit more financially stable, i've found myself an 01 bandit 1200. Bought it less than a week ago and I LOVE IT! Prepare for all of my stupid questions you will see on these boards.

BTW im out of anaheim, ca so if you live nearby hit me up. I work alot but if ya know any good places to ride around here im down. Keep the shiney side up right?

Hello all. I just joined the board although I've had my Bandit 1200 since 2000. I'm sure I've met many of you from the Atlanta and surrounding area and I've been to 2 of the rallies at Suches, Ga. My name is Spain and I hope to meet many more of you guys soon.

Hi, I'm BillyO, from Monson MA. My current ride is a 2000 B12, holeshot stage 1, pipe, and timing advance, diamond lowering links on the back. This is my second B12, I had a 98 that I was riding to work back in June (27th) when about 20 yards from my jobs driveway, after putting on my directional, flashing my brakes,and downshifting I got rearended by a guy in a minivan. I got talked into a Kawaski Vulcan by some cruiser friends of mine while the insurance companys were screwing around, and don't get me wrong I love the V-twin, but what a F#%*&ing truck in the corners. And that single disk in the front? 3 weeks of ownership and I bought another Bandit. I

Found it!

Names Ian. Been riding since I was a little guy and last month picked up a 03  Bandit 1200S. Pretty much stock except for a D&D can.

In the San Antonio area for now and we'll see where the AF takes me next. If anyone is around the area and likes to race, let me know. I'm all about it.

Worked at a bike shop for many years...so I hope that I can learn and help while here.
