Suzuki Bandit

  Important Announcement

THIS IS NOT!!!! THE ORIGINAL RATBIKE.ORG, BUT AN ARCHIVE FOR THOSE WHO CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT IT.

side view
The bike is a Suzuki Bandit 12. It was a very shiny (dull) purple/blue colour when I got it. It has only done a smidge of 6,000 miles so my mates think I am a bit daft for having done this to it. I beg to differ....
It's my first attempt at a custom bike and I am quite chuffed with the results. It's fairly standard really, chopped the subframe down, single seat, twin headlights instead of the fairing thing that was on it. There is more to do, I want to re-do the front mud-guard and possibly fabricate a wind-shield and hand guards out of the same wall-cladding I used to make the side panels.
I had a lot of help with the wiring and welding off my mate Dai. He's a star.
Cheers,
Rich
