Default getting a new bike

after my mate jim changed his sv for a gixxer6 it was just a matter of time before i got rid of my bandit so i'm picking up a new gsx650f on saturday through in edinburgh at saltire suzuki .its an orange one.they had a gixxer6 in the orange but i'm not a big fan of the riding position on the gixxer or sv but i do like the sporty look so the gsxf was the best compromise.

i kept my beowolf can off the bandit and i am waiting for beowolf to get back too me about a link pipe for it but if the wont do one i'll offer the can on here before i put it up on the bay.

Nice bike, had a go on the GSXF and its pretty good. Not as terrifyingly fast as a Gixer but enought to get you along and is far more comfortable indeed. I would get a double bubble though as I was getting terrible wind blast of and get some ACF50 and apply immediately lol

Happy Riding

ive got a full tin of acf just waiting to blast it.i bought it for the bandit but never got round to using it.
i did get a lot of wind blast onto my lid on the test ride but being specky it was quick good for demisting the visor and glasses.

I looked at the gsxf as well as the sv pointy, it was some of the styling that put me off, but on the whole great bikes.
