Im 52 and live in Australia. I just bought a 2008 1250S ABS Bandit. I just grin the whole time im on it and say wow every time i hope off it. My biggest regret is not owning one earlier in life.
I love this , I just bought an 08 what a bike and I'm 53 and owned some powerful bikes. The Bandit makes me chuckle every time I pull the throttle all the very best from UK.🙂
@@thebritonabike Thanks for the quick reply , I wrote the comment on impulse because I was out on the bike earlier today and it made me laugh every time I hit the throttle. I hope you dont think I'm a maniac but they did name it Bandit and the 1250 is a very understated bike I really love it take care
@@malcolmgraham8745 I try not to pass judgement on any motorcyclist! All I care about is ‘preaching the gospel of motorcycle safety!’ With great power comes great responsibility!
Bandits are so underrated and underpriced for the fun and practicality. A proper supernaked muscle bike with touring capabilities. Sad they don't make em anymore!
It was my pleasure ! Glad you enjoyed the test ride and thank you for coming out to the range for some practice and training. Ride safely and come home alive!
Is it rideable ? You need to fix that bad boy and get out on the road ! working ABS is kind of important !!!! Stay safe out there on 2 wheels! @@Tec2Nut
Possibly, but he didn't drop it and he didn't die trying to ride it! Most importantly he had fun riding it. It was a big step up from his R3..... thanx for watching - ride safely and come home alive!
@@thebritonabike He was only on a open paved area not in real world situation, He kept balance and managed to change gears that's all definitely not confident or skilled. Safety is what is most important .
@@leeengelsman1855 he is literally at a riding course, and it’s his first time on a big bike. Everyone starts somewhere, and learning from and taking the time to go to classes seems like he’s got some decent sensibility to me.
Heard the Bandit 1250 is special, but the 1200 is better Fun. Yours Scott Loch. Na , Professor Bandit B.T.E. Torque Enjoyment only, nothing technical, Sadly now a HOPEFULLY only, semi retired Crazy Mad Banditateer fekkin Banditaholic, ruined for any other bike, and I ain't even lying.
