Horrible standard aren't they? If you can live with the looks its only the poor Honda linked brakes that would worry me.
I like this one. Lovely exhausts. Dumped the tacky rad plastics and a good lick of paint. http://www.zorstec.com/bikes2.htm |

Errrrr under the tacky plastics are horrible metal bits, so no better, awesome machine though, and fortunately the view from the saddle is so much better.
definately not a "look back at" bike when you walk away. Cheers Mark.

t'is ugly i must admit it's between this a bandit1250 or a sprint st but the sprint's gonna be at least another £2k on top of either the bandit or the honda.

Bloke at work bought one and I loved it. His had a bellypan which made a good difference to its looks (as it did with my SV when I had it). he ended up taking his back to the garage and giving it up as in his words it had a 'slack gear box'
