I bought my bike after reading your rerview :) It is pretty much identical to the one that you have pictured. I am based in the UK and I commute 600 miles per week - this bike is my perfect partner!
I have just ordered a new can for it as the one that is supplied is a little quiet for my likeing - I leike people to know that I am coming up behind them and will shortly be scooting on past ;P

Thanks for the review,

Great write-up and on spot. I own the bike that was used for the Scootworks prototype belt drive system. Previous owner had the work done. The belt makes this bike almost perfect. Not sure if the price is justified, but hey, I didn't pay for it ;-)

I am 6'4" and would love a little extra stretching room, but not paying FJR or K-bike money for primarily a commuter (of which the Bandit excels) just for the rare getaway. Researching Highway pegs to purchase to help with the longer trips.

I agree whole heartedly with your excellent review. I purchased a 2009 GSX in Vancouver with top box and added a Sargent saddle, heated grips and touring windscreen. I removed the fairings and added highway pegs. While I am 5'9" I have a right below knee prosthesis and like to extend my legs periodically. I put 35,000kms on this summer explored most of B.C. and western Alberta before heading up to the Yukon via the Stewart-Cassiar and Alaska highways. Not a single problem! I've owned Hardly Davidsons and a Goldwing. I prefer The Bandit(GSX-SEA)over both, for its usable power, comfort, sportiness and its' extreme versatility. Bang for the Buck... It is not your father's UJM.

Wow, you are having awesome times! This is a very nice read. Beautiful pictures, and I see you are getting to be a big boy...working on the dumbells and sitting like a good boy, in the big yellow chair, until someone comes with bib and pablum.

Good to know you are healing well. I enjoy reading your blogs, to keep "in the know" of your Planet Tour journey.

Your thoughts on, "Embrace the change instead of fight it" remind me of a saying that goes something like this, "Sometimes, on the way to a dream we find another dream."

I saw that tugboat too, great idea huh! I saw the kiddies on there taking it so seriously...lol I bought my niece and nephew tugboat t-shirts.

I was in Halifax this year, Aug 3-7, standing in those very same places as you are with your motorcycle. Isn't it beautiful there!

ENJOY!! Rock the boat Daryl, just not too much - would hate to see 'man overboard'...

I just love it when you report live from a Planet Tour adventure!

Dude,
Wish I could be there with you - kick back and smoke a cigar while we watch Earl clear the washing off the line, however the old bod is starting to protest the long rides.
Thinking of you bud. All the best.

I hate camping in rain. Packing soggy tents is no fun, at all. When will you be passing back through Quebec? If your lodging budget is getting low, I might know someone with a couch in Montreal.

If you hallucinated that and managed to capture it in a photo, I want some of what you've been drinking!

Although great to watch from the comfort of my computer, that looked like an awful experience. Nothing like being in the middle of the praries, having it piss down, with no where to go.
I can sympathise with the water running into your boots and gloves. I've got some boot covers that work ok, but there must be something better out there.

I enjoyed the videos the other night - and I also enjoy looking at the still shots! Thanks for sharing Mother Nature's fury and beauty all wrapped into one big challenge for you!

YAY! I like this picture of Suzy B, but prefer the one of the both of you! Sent invites to all my buddies so hope to bring a few onboard to follow you as you Tour the Planet! Looking forward to seeing you at KGB and of course here in Winnipeg!! Safe travels!
