Default Why do I lust after the GSF1200S?

Afternoon,

is it wrong to be attracted to the basic charms of the big engined half-faired Bandit? For the past few months I've seen a few knockin' around Dublin and I have to admitted I'm smitten. I even think the little fairing with the v-shaped lights looks very smart. It shouts "get one" lounder than any zipped up, colour splashed race rep has to date. Am I'm I loosing my cool? Dammit surely I'm too young for such a genuine Dads bike! Yet still I fancy one. Just wanted to voice this secret yearning. Still it's a whole heap of machine for the money, hmm maybe they're just a heap of ****3 I'm lusting after, but hopefully not.

Great bike - nothing wrong with it. Really there isn't.

Lovely smooth, grunty motor, very comfy, effective half-fairing, more power readily available with the addition of a can, at 215kg it's lighter than the CBF1000, etc.

Best bit is the price.............. £5299 rrp.

Top value bike.

They are a mighty fine machine. Nothing wrong in lusting after one to be honest.

Was the big Bandit not dubbed "Best value bike you can buy" recently by one of the comics ?

I know a guy who's on his 3rd one.

Best bike you can buy for little money.

Shop around and find a bargain.

The Bandit will be extinct (EU and tree huggers) soon so maybe a possible classic too.

One of the finest hooligan machines money can buy. Amazing bikes. A little heavy but you ouwldn't notice it when riding (just don't drop it). Wheelie's in 3rd (for me that is amazing!).

Get one.....NOW!

It's just your sexual orientation. Be proud and as it's not normal there's bound to be some social handouts to help you...
