1st ever bike! · Homer on Tue May 13, 2008 12:49 pm

Hey folks! I'm Ross and im from Aberdeen. Im brand new to the motorbiking scene so please forgive me as I know very little and may ask lots of stupid questions haha. Got my 1st ever set of wheels a couple months back after waiting till I was 21 and then doing the DAS. I have a GSF600s, and I like it Very Happy

I hope to expand my knowledge here as I know very little haha.

Cheers!

Some nice extras there, nice to see someone happy with their purchase.The guys at Cupar have a very good reputation.

It feels quite a lot heavier than the 600, but I guess I will get used to this after a wee while. Also I presume that it is only supposed to have 5 gears rather than the 6 on the 600, either that or I've lost a gear somewhere haha.

Hi Homer,

No you haven't lost a gear, original bandit 1200s only had a 5 speeder due to their torque and low reving engines.

Take care and enjoy it mate!

Did you take off your Horn for the new bike ??

Re: 1st ever bike! · Homer on Tue Jul 28, 2009 5:49 pm

Yeah Oneyed. I removed the horn from my old bandit, just need to get round to fitting it on the new beast now. I do miss my horn Cool

Re: 1st ever bike! · **OneeyedBandit** on Tue Jul 28, 2009 7:59 pm

I want a louder one !!!!

As my current one is no good against the Foreign imigrant drivers of Brum.

Re: 1st ever bike! · Homer on Wed Jul 29, 2009 9:06 pm

Is there such thing as louder? I thought the horn we have was the loudest haha.
