Low miles K3 bandit 600N

Currently not for sale!

I am putting my silver bandit 600N up for sale as I would like to step up to a low miles bandit 1200N (if anyone wants to do a deal?), the missus wants to come along this year.

It currently has 8010 miles on the clock

MOT due in May 2017

It has full service history for the milage but did stand without use for 3-4 years before I purchased it.

I purchased it last year, had it serviced by a local motorcycle garage as well as the carbs cleaned, new battery plus new fuel and air filters too.

New chain, Sprockets plus front and back tyres went on in the middle of last summer (done about 1500 easy miles on them) all fitted by Demon Tweeks.

New stainless exhaust fitted at the same time.

Puig screen is currently fitted as it reduces wind buffering (can be easily removed if not wanted)

The next item that may need changing in the near future is the rear brake pads, but I have already purchased them, just not had time to fit them yet (won't fail an MOT but I like things as fresh as possible without being silly about it).

There are some age related marks, surface rust on the coated bolts and oil cooler (very common bandit problem). I do have the replacement stainless bolt kits to fit but haven't fitted them yet.

It runs and rides as an 8k bike should do and doesn't throw any problems up at all, started first time in the cold last week as well.

The price is currently OVNO as I'm happy to use it for the foreseeable future as I know it needs for nothing plus it is a great bike to own.

It's only currently for sale on this forum as I would like to see it around my local area as the bike has served me very well and shown me some amazing places.

Send me a message on here if you are interested and I will get back to you asap.

Price is £2200 OVNO

I presumed he edited the first post so there weren't two prices, but maybe not?

Last call on my bike before I take the add down and use it for the summer.

It's just had a full carb clean and service, new carb parts including a stainless overhaul kit (no dull carb bolts), rebalance and then it was setup on the dyno to match the fuelling to the aftermarket exhaust and K&N air filter.

Full service which included:

Motul 5100 semi synth oil
k&N air filter
NGK iridium spark plugs
New fuel filter

New fuel hoses as they looked a bit tatty when stripping it down.

New rear brake pads.

DID Chain and sprocket, less than 1500 miles old and well looked after.

Tyres are less than 1500 miles old and in good condition.

2003 on an 03 plate.

1 previous owner.

8034 miles on the clock today.

Good service history.

Does need some bolts changing to stainless to make it mint (engine cover etc price would be around £50 for the kit).

Price is £2200 OVNO.

This add will be up until mid April if there isn't any interest then I will just keep it.
