Suzuki Bandit

Since October 2001, I am the proud owner of a Suzuki Bandit 1200. After almost three years without a bike, I am finally in the saddle again. San Diego offers motorcycle weather almost year round, allowing me to ride to work almost every day.

Customization

	Rear fender removal To clean up the back of the bike, I removed the rear fender just under the license plate and got rid of the turn signals.
	Front turn signals After cleaning up the back of the bike, it was time to pay some attention to the front. As a first step I replaced the stock turn signals
	Holeshot Power Package After the initial optical improvements, now the first performance enhancement!
	Raptor fly screen Enough performance mods for now - back to the optics ;). The Raptor fly screnn from BanditMania.
	Holeshot high mount slip-on The new Holeshot high exhaust slip-on: Less weight, more power, better sound and awesome looks - what a concept!
	Various body parts To finish up the looks of the bike, various body parts have been installed. Check it out and tell me what you think!
	Bar-end turn signals Hopefully for the last time the front turn signals have been replaced. The carbon look cat-eyes were ok, but the new Kellermann bar-end turn signals look even better!
