Re: Bandit plans...need people to keep an eye out
My CBF600 was unfaired and it was loads of fun. unless wanting to hammer it all the time or go down the motorway they are as good as any other bike.
The only time it used to get me on my CBF was when overtaking at speed and the speed just didnt increase much after 90mph but yours is loads more powerful than that so as long as you can take the blast of air in your face i wouldnt worry.
We all go through fads where we want to change things we own but unless you are really sure i would just stick with it.
Maybe find out if you can have the front end changed to accomodate the faring you want

Ah, sorry, I thought you were talking to me too. :-X
Re: Bandit plans...need people to keep an eye out
Sorry Blackbonnie. Please dont feel left out mate.
Was just trying to find out whether it makes as much difference to a bike having a bigger engine as a car.
Dont think it does to be honest unless you pull that throttle back constantly.
So how many bikes have you got Blackbonnie??
Re: Bandit plans...need people to keep an eye out
What? how many on the road? er, 4 :-[
Re: Bandit plans...need people to keep an eye out
Whyare you embarrassed?? That is impressive, have you got any others you want to buy in the near future??
Re: Bandit plans...need people to keep an eye out
Ah well, I'm embarrassed 'cos 4 is the number on the road! I could really do with getting rid of a few others - all brit iron that we had collected between us over the years. OK while you have a tame mechanic to keep things up together but as he became less well, less got maintained and came off the road. :(
Hence going out and getting the bonnie in January! I have friends who are willing to look after one or two bikes for me but a lot of the stuff either I can't handle - wimp that I am - or need major surgery to get sorted. :)
Re: Bandit plans...need people to keep an eye out
you're lucky you have somewhere to keep them all! I have to keep mine at my g/fs as there's no room at home :(
Re: Bandit plans...need people to keep an eye out
Scattered around 5 garages - all within walking distance! Stuff on the road lives in the garage at home.
Re: Bandit plans...need people to keep an eye out
I have to park mine outside the flat inbetween to cars as to hopefully keep it out of view and hopefully not get knocked over.
Nothing to be embarrassed about Blackbonnie!
Re: Bandit plans...need people to keep an eye out
I know, some of my friends have had to park on the road or on front paths etc.
I'm just conscious that a lot of people haven't had the disposable income that I've had over the years and to be honest I consider myself lucky.
Now someone asked earlier what I might think of buying? Well the MT03 looks interesting!! ;)
