Congrats on your purchase mate. have ridden the bike here in NZ,one of the most comfortable bikes.
ps: have been voted the bike of the decade by a motorcycle mag here

Congrats dude! I'm gonna get one too, but after a year. Had been riding a yam fzs1000(01) for the last couple of years and got hooked onto the standard streetbike style. Terrific to ride on our roads and our conditions. Great choice, ride safe! As someone asked price please, via pm if you don't wanna publicize.

simply amazing...

I know its been a while and should have posted photos earlier but still, its never too late.

Here in my ride. Mods include the rear Givi top box mount (half home-made) and the seat has been raised 3cms to accommodate my tall frame. Its done around 600kms so far and is returning a decent 13kmpl so far.

simply awesome brother, suzuki is doing really well with bandit, gsxr and busa

did u also see FZ1?

**deadman23** · 01-19-2011, 12:47 PM

yea i did, i liked the bandit more.

**Haroon** · 01-19-2011, 01:10 PM

Congrats deadman23.

This is probably the best value for money touring bike in India. So ride it like you stole it

. I guess after the engine break-in it should return you better than 13kpl as the bandit is known to be a relatively fuel-efficient superbike.

I see the touring bike transformation start with Givi topcase. Is it the V46. Givi also have another brand Kappa that is less expensive with almost same designs. Since you are tall, are you planning on a laminar lip also. Could be useful on long rides to avoid wind buffeting.

Wish you many many miles of enjoyable rides.

Congrats man. What a lovely bike.

Love the job on the top case mount. Looks like a clean install.

thanks.

the mount is actually a RTR 180 mount. i worked on it a bit for the bandit. im now saving up for the whole bandit GT kit from suzuki.

I see you havent been able to use it that much ... Only 600 kms so far

But guess the touring luggage mount and everything should mean something already in your mind , Where you planning to head ?

Nice pics... More Please .... How does the stock sound ?

**deadman23** · 01-19-2011, 03:02 PM

its not even a month old so 600kms is a good number considering im free only on weekends.

im planning a trip down south. lets see.

**roshan3440** · 01-19-2011, 03:33 PM

Just a month old is it ... Ok my mistake

Oh good , Down south is good ... When you planning ? Anytime before feb end seems ideal with weather especially but relatively compared to Mumbai, Down south most of the places are cooler and less humid

Anyhow When does the run-in period get over ? Only after which u must be planning or is this trip to complete the run-in period
