    Bought another Bandit

    Well I didn't wake up this morning thinking I would buy another bike....but I couldn't resist this one....damn I love facebook market place!!
    2002 Bandit 1200S...it's the same one I had that I had my accident on 4 years ago...can't believe it's been over 4 years already.
    Any way...50,000kms (30,000 miles) on the bike...the owner bought it in 2008 with only 3000kms on it, so basically a one owner bike.
    Very well looked after...guy is 74 and owns another bike....a gsx1250 Suzuki and the bandit has sat in his garage for 3 years....fuel drained.
    Has new chain and sprockets, Hindle exhaust with stage one jet kit (and it came with the original exhaust)
    Battery dead and it wasn't even in the bike as he was using it as a gate stop in his driveway...lol
    Really nice guy....oh and 3 extra windscreens.
    $1000 Canuck bucks! (about $3 US)
    Needs a bit of a clean up....and I'm not worried about it running.

    I want to buy another 1250, just waiting for my CBF to sell and then I'll buy the best one I can find.

        Congrats. on the find, I never find deals like that. 2002, that's half way between my "99", and "05" Bandits, I've never been on a "02". Wondering if the "02" would be more like the "99" or more like the "05"? Reason wondering, my 2 bandits are totally different bikes. "99" being much more comfortable, agile, fun to ride, and waaay uglier than the beautiful Blue/white "05" model.

          Is everything that cheap up there? I may be living on the wrong coast...

            Unreal, Trevor. Think I’ve said it before. My Dad used to use the phrase, “dipped in sh!t”, to mean a very lucky person. Well done.

                  Lol...my luck seems to be better later in life...but all kidding aside...when you constantly are looking at bikes for sale and all your buddies are too (a buddy notified me in a text of the bandit) you are going to find deals.
                  By the way....put a new battery in tonight and we got a runner!! Sounds awesome!
