That doesn't quite work for me, the body shape is quite Honda like

[cheb]

I'll take the Honda please.

I'll take the Honda please.

So would I, I think that picture is of a Tamiya model btw

[Mr Moofo]

even it that colour , it looks better than a bandit ...
But why you would paint it beige is beyond me ...

[DefTrap]

I quite like the design.

Can't abide Bandits though!| Shame.

Just really not bothered by IL4s

[G.P]

Proper lol

I like it, it looks like the kind of thing you'd find on the back of Performance Bikes in 1990.
I wouldn't own one because it would be hellish to ride for me now, but it's a nice poster bike.

I always thought the Bandit had the making of a good Cafe Racer, it's a nice frame. The 1200 was a nice thing to ride.

So they've made the Blandit frame twin shock, but the top shock mounts look really wrong from the rear angle.

I can't get past the word Butterscotch. Mmmmmm. It might be my favourite word.

I've got my eye on those same twin shocks for my Interceptor, but I'm not sure I want to drop that sort of money on them.

Butterscotch was invented in Doncaster.

That's your top fact for today.
