Maybe we can start a Bandit on Steroids (Busa) corner here! No i haven't done the side stand mod yet. I think with tall tires, which all seem to put the 190 55's or the 200's make the bike too high for it. I almost dumped it once loaded going to Asheville but it was parked going a bit down hill! They are touchy. The first thing i think needs to be done along with the side stand mod is frame slider's! Get the $20 or the $200 ones but get em on! If she goes down they can save you big on consmetic stuff. They did me! Mine are the $9.99 a set with some carbon fibre decals they look like the hi priced stuff. Easy to do once you can bring yourself to drill a hole in those $500 fairings but will just add to the resale if you wanted to sell it. Oem BT56 tire i got 5400 miles out of the rear and when i cut it off the rim it still had 4/32 of rubber left after bald. FYI Great tires but a bit too pricey for a tight wade like me! The shinko 190 009 work as good for me on the straight roads here in FL. Any questions that you can't get from the ORG just give a shout. I know! too much info!! A pic or so  :beers:  :welcome:

BTW don't waist your time on these! They won't help in a crash or tip over and will crack the frame.

Hey Datona
As long as you have something valid to say, advice to other Bandit owners, parts or suggestions, my vote is that your welcome here.

With the number of none Bandit owners on the site, I can't see how anyone could possbily object.

You're always welcome here, you should know that by now.  :grin:

As for a sticky thread for Busas, I suppose we could do that if you like - in the General M/C section.
