Well hey all, here's those pics.
Well new therapist was picked up today.
Felt Even better then the test drive. Good fit, will be even better once my riser's arrive. Feels so plush and smooth.
Linked brakes are a adjustment but manageable. Sooooooo quiet and wind free behind that big screen.
Just like the day I picked up the Bandit raining and windy. They probably didn't have to wash it before I picked it up :)
Didn't get many miles on the clock today, my broken toe started to interfere with the ride.
Moderate rain and didn't get wet or cold.
After 3 years of watching this bike I'm glad I finally pulled the trigger.
I hear the Rockies calling us.

I was thinking the same thing while at a set of lights and park on the side of the highway. We are fortunate to experience the barrage on our sences.
Cheers and Rubber down

Rx: Take 500 miles today and call me in the morning. Repeat as needed.

If you have health care that covers mental health, shouldn't we be able to get it to pay for our bikes? In the long run, less expensive then a good therapist and better results.

Better than the happy ending massage?

Looking good.

Congrats on the new Concours.
I also have a 2007 Bandit that I bought new and now have 44,500 miles on her. I have 33,000 on my 2011 Concours. All trouble free miles on both bikes.
Enjoy them both.

;D thanks Brent.
75572km(46958mi) on the Bandit. Also not one issue. Lots of accessories and mods. I guess the only issue was, had a hard time keeping rubber on the back :) Ohlins rear shock made grip much better in the corners.
249km (154mi), forgot how good they smell when new.
Waiting on a few accessories especially the canyon cages so I can install the highway pegs. The C14 is the most comfortable bike I've owned yet (or ridden).

I have the Canyon Cages and a Russell Day Long Seat on the Concours. They both have come in handy, although the Russell much more often.
I rode the Bandit up to Courtwright Lake and the Wishon Store last Thursday and the seat (stock, except for the Spencer mod) isn't near as comfortable as the Russell. I'm spoiled by the Concours, as you will soon be.
