    First of all - Congratulations!

    I love it when people make sensible decisions balancing passion and practicality and the Bandit is such a buy. It isn't the most awe inspiring to look at and it isn't a speed-queen either but nothing comes close to matching it's tractability in our Indian conditions.

    I used to say that the MT-01 is the best bike for Indian conditions...I now revise that statement - the Bandit is the king when it comes to the superbike way of life in India.

    Have fun...Ride long!

                Nice buy buddy, worth every penny. Just replace the stock pipe with Yoshi carbon fiber exhaust and you are ready to roll.

                        Thought so ... A tourer in you has made you make the wisest decision of them all... I had a word with pkon during the recent DUCATI road trip down south and he said a lot about the torque, the precise throttle control and stuff... How its such a pleasure on the open roads and highways and such a pain in loose gravel and anywhere else other than tarmac .... So be careful and have fun.... Hope you make great tours on ur Bandit and head down south someday to Bangalore or Mysore becoz I am sure it is a piece of cake for the bandit

                        About the Bold sentences : Small ride with friend with speeds excess of 200 ... Only trips around the block ... U managed 200+ around the block

                            Did the newly launched Yamaha FZ-1 not allure you?

                              Nope. Not a big fan of that motorcycle.

                                Man! This is the bike to own if you wanna tour!

                                Wish I have the guts to loot a bank to own this one!
