Hey kids, I've got access to a bandit 1200 donor bike, its a friends, the motor is done. Any thing that I can use with out heavy mods?
yeah, the complete front end
Jim K installed the swingarm
keep the bandit and install a kat 600 or 750 engine....heck they dang near give them away.....
Yeah, I thought about the front end... Swing arm looks to be a huge ordeal!?
How done is that motor?
Dufus used car oil, and not enough of it.... Bad combo, well done!
So any suggestions? Its gunna go on ebay but I can rape it before. I just wish it was a katana or some bike of more use.
sir, tha 1200 front end is WAY better than a kat ..... 43mm with 4 pot brakes
a little long....but good place to mount clip-ons above the top clamp
Yeah, I thought that also, but it seems to tall? Ever seen it done? Please call me any thing but sir
:)

I thought using oil whether designed for cars or bikes was indifferent so long as you continue to provide the engine with the right grade and proper lubrication...
I have 10W40 Accel in my bike. Its running fine. Should I get Motul asap???

No. Car oil is fine. Don't buy into the hype.
The moment you buy the hype you're f%&ked.
That Reminds me I went to the Dollar store the Other day and they had STP Brand Oil in 10W40 for $1.65 Quart.I think thats what my 300,000 mile truck is getting on the Next Oil Change. :thumb:
why is it $1.65 at the DOLLAR store?
servus,

Dam, talk about a thread jack! Yeah, he blew a motor.... Car oil.... Bike oil.... Additives....blah blah blah...
Ok, that's the oil debate!
:)
So has any one done a bandit 1200 front swap?
Rear shock of a pre 01 bandit is great for a GS.
Cool.
