This should be an image of my New Bandit!

400 import, Maroon / Red with just under 3000k on the clock. Can't wait to get it out on the road, one or two things just holding me back at the moment.

Picked it up for just under £900 (GBP)

Hi guys,

Mine is a '94 Bandit GSF400P, so far,

-Steel braided brake-lines
-Head fairing "not mounted yet"

Still pretty stock, but waiting for the cash flow to free up a little before I do major work on her.

P.S. My other ride is a Gilera DNA 180

Last time I tried to post, I took too long to spit it all out and got logged out before posting.  I own two red '93's.  One stocker and one rocker.  The first one sports a '02 YZF600 front end and an '01 GSX-R750 rear shock.  Bought it with a Yosh F/S and a rear cowl.  The second arrived a year later bone stock.  The stock bike has become an engine donor for the meantime.  I am rebuilding the orig. first engine as it gave up the ghost at 75K.
I live in Phoenix, ride year round, and manage the parts department for a MC dealership.  I like to think I know my stuff.

Well heres my b4 now ive got it cleaned up. I got it for the bargain price of £450 and all it needed was a new chain and sprocket set and The carbs cleaning. Im now on the hunt for a belly pan, a set of handlebar style top yokes so i can fit a set of renthal bars. Then maybe a set of twin lights and a screen to finish it off. Next year sometime ill get the wheels powdercoated orange as its a bit plain at the moment.

Here's my Bandit...bone stock except for braided steel front brake hoses, belly pan, windscreen, and a Mity Mike end-can
...Mity Mike is a manufacturer/fabricator of motorcycle exhausts based in the Philippines...

The can sounds really great too... had one on my previous 250cc Bandit as well.

Hello all.

Mines a Completely black 1994 Variable valve model imported from japan. My first 'big bike'.

Its stock apart from bug-eye lights, remus hugger, and a not-so-legal remus evolution end can.

Only cost me £200 for the bike and another £200 for work done. Bargain of the century! Goes to show; its not what you know but who you know.

She's a beauty but she hates me and only runs when she feels like it.

Here's my '91 Bandit, which I am currently in the process of cleaning up.

She's got a Laser full system with carbon can, braided front brake lines and I'll be re-jetting next weekend.
