Suzuki Bandit 400

My mate Andy is selling his Bandit 400. This leaves me with a dilema. I have secretly coveted that bike since the day I saw it and he's selling it for a reasonable price... BUT I'm skint. I have no money. For two days I have been plotting and looking at my finances for ways to lay my hands on it. I'm considering a collosal move round of my finances and some re-financing. The thing is it's not only a desirable bike but it's perfect for my level of experience. Small(ish) capacity, easy handling characteristics and it's a good size for me to do my bike test on. So not only do I want it but I've convinced myself that I need it. The other thing weighing on my mind is that my little Gillera, that I love so much, doesn't seem to be up to the kind of long distance, all weather commuting that I'm throwing at it. *sigh* Maybe I should put a pay-pal "donate to Mad's bike fund" button on my site... (Yeah right, my one reader's as poor as me I bet)
