Congrats Matt! Does this mean that the Blurred Vision is gone? :wink: I hope you didn't put money down on it like I did. I'm finding out THAT gets you the last one in town.... :frusty: We'll have to get out for a ride soon. I have two weeks starting next friday so that gives you limited time to get her broken in..... :P

Once you put money down, you give up control of the transaction. They can then have their way with you, and you are held hostage by your deposit.

I put no money down not until they find one apprantley there is one in Lethbridge which they are going to try and get.Suzuki's warehouse is out of stock 05 Bandits and none scheduled to come in.Still no news on the Monster Bruce? Bastards at least you got it cheaper than everyone else in town.No the Vision is still here didnt have many calls this weekend hopefuly someone will buy her soon.Either that or it will be the TMW Camera Bike :wink:

Well after my Z750 I fancied something with a bit of wind protection and a realy stonking motor.Everyone who had ridden a Bandit 12 thought they were great.Also they are very comftable Bike I realy liked the new SV1000S but the riding postion was just to sports for me.

Hard to believe that there are no black Bandits to be had....... Damn this booming economy....

I think what is Bruce was last year they couldn't give Bandits away.So everyone ordered less this year so Suzuki imported less.And with some many new riders in this city im sure more are going for standards than the Usaul race rep or Cruisers which is pretty much all you see round here.
