| Welcome. I owned a Bandit 1250 (07 model). It was a great bike, affordable, reliable and a lot of fun; very under-rated bike. |

| Welcome, I'm a new S'wing owner, had mine just 11 days. Just fitted a Givi AF214 and I would recommend it as a great improvement over the standard screen. If your interested I got it from Bikebitz, they ordered it from Givi and got it to my house in 8 days, that included the bank holiday weekend. I'm over the Pennines in Doncaster. I have a feeling the Bandit will be for sale soon! |

| Welcome to the site from Arizona. Enjoy the ride. Probably the Bandit has a shorter life expectancy. |

Probably "In His Opinion". I don't text speak, but I can guess with the best of them.  |
