    Does this mean I have to leave?

    I finally bought the bike of my dreams, 1998 Suzuki bandit 1200. It's like they built a bike to my specs.



    Yipeeeee, Rick

                              Thanks guys, I put the first hundred down today. What a blast, power any time at all and it handles very nicely. A very thoughtful design.

                                      How tall are you, Rick? I'm looking at Bandits too. I haven't ridden any significant distance and wonder if I will fit. I'm 6' 1".

                                      I find working on my motorcycle mildly therapeutic when I'm not cursing.

                                          I'm under six feet tall with a 31 inseam, bike fits well. It is a pleasure to ride; you can putt around town under three grand or wind it up or anything in between. The bike just works anywhere. It's lighter than my 85 GS700e and a shorter wheelbase. I mean it, Suzuki built this one to my specs. Ride one you'll see.

                                          Mine has the jet kit and airbox upgrade plus a nice V&H can. Quiet but strong. The only thing is, I'm sorry I waited so long!

                                              It didn't take long at all; I was just touching up the nicks that was actually the red key ring thing.

                                                      Thanks Stan. Getting to know this bike has been great fun
