I'm nearly finished with my third Bandit:  a 1997 1200, piped (Cone Engineering reverse megaphone), jetted and podded with a custom subframe, ZRX1200 swingarm, Galespeed wheels, GSX-R750 front end and rear sets, Tomasselli clip-ons, Motogadget m-Lock, KOSO TNT gauge, Omar's Fiberglass cafe tail section (I Frenched in the tail light -- my first fiberglassing project).  The bike weighs 425 lbs wet.  There's still a few things to finish like the seat cover but the jetting is nearly perfect and it goes like feck.






...obviously not a Ducati, but I thought I'd share.   Dolph
