An excellent find Mike :)

Its good to compare,..i just knew when i got a go of my mates Suzy Bandit 1200, it felt much lighter than my Triumph Daytona 1000 i owned at the time,now the figures prove it :!:

Daytona dry weight 591 lbs (and with 6.61 gallon tank filled was much heavier) :!:

Bandit 1200s is 485 lbs

Saved to Favourites :D

Did notice a wee mistake in it though, its saying a Triumph Daytona 1000 '96 is a V-twin 8O :?
Checked another year triumph and its got a pic of a Guzzi ,but i think you do/did get a Guzzi Daytona :!:
Overall,site well worth saving :)

if you enlarge the pics it dont look that good, tank bollts rusty, look to the right of those and theres paint missing round the fairing bolt, the honda wings from fairing to tank dont line up correctly, and if you look at the pic enlarged on right side fairing look like its chipped with red showing through! theres two 2001 models on fleabay better at 2800 and 2900 so it aint that cheap :wink:
