Default Goodbye SV650 Hello Bandit 1250S

I took the plunge yesterday and traded in my trusty K3 S for a Bandit 1250S. The Bandit is soooo smooootthh and has a montain of torque. I am really suprised at how well it handles.

Smiles all round at the moment.

After the change I have a few surplus bits. I recently bought a regulator/rectifier off of a K6 SV that had only done 1700 miles.

Also I have an Abba Superbike stand, if it turns out that the fitting kit does not fit the Bandit then I will be selling the SV kit. I also have the SV swing arm removal kit that will be going up for sale.

Finally I have a rotor for the speedo sensor, this may also fit a K4 but I do not know for sure. It is no use for K5 bikes onward as Suzuki changed the design slightly and the rotors are differnt sizes.

Tim.
