Hi there just spend this afternoon cleaning both bikes down took 2 hours approx please let me know what you think about both bike many thanks...

I prefer the Suzuki (in fact I very much like them).

How is it compared to the Bandit 1200?

I'm not one for classic bikes really but interested to know the year of the Royal Enfield was made...

Very nice indeed....

Always liked the 1400, (just sold a 1200 Bandit the same colour)...Very smart bike

Like the Enfield too,..... they are discontinuing the Indian Enfield in a few months as the air cooled motor will not pass upcoming emmission regs I understand........

Seems like Bandit 12 owners covert the GSX14. I'd seriously think of one as it's on par with the Yamaha XJR as the best pure muscle bike around. They make my 12 look tiny in comparison.

IMO a set of Renthals would beef your GSX up no end mate. Still a gorgeous bike though.

Oh and your Enfield is cool too is it one of the newer ones? Bloke at work had one before he traded for a Goldwing. I'd have kept the Enfield, Much more character and kudos.
Black and Gold never fails as a colour scheme.

yeah well the gsx current plans are x2 new end cans, new bars, then twin lights at the front...hopfully.

and yeah ive heard that about not making them, its a great bike the sound, no too keen on the seat so maybe go for the single seat...

Lovely pair of bikes, would fit comfortably in my garage, two extremes of the same thing. I hired an Enfield 350 when I was in India 20 years ago, don't think I've recovered yet.

ps That third pic is quite possible the largest image I have ever seen on the interweb.

The Enfield is really nice, assume its one of the modern classics but not an electra cos of the lack of front disk?? I really fancy a trailer, to me it looks the most classic of the modern enfields, but I'm currently trying to decide what to get between a Ural and a Chang Jiang... Enfield may need to wait until next year...
