I have been giving the Suzuki Bandit 1250 a try lately. I've acquired one out of Morehead City with all the bells & whistles from Holeshot Performance. Having ridden it twice across North Carolina, I am amazed at the performance and rideability of this machine. Overall it's performance is excellent! Smooth. Quick. Excellent brakes. The price stock is less than $10K and you won't be disappointed in this Naked bike, and there are performance upgrades available by internet! Head on down to your Suzuki dealer and give it a look! Especially since the B-King is out for 2010!!
