A guy showed up at a Hampton Va. local race today with a Bandito Cruiser. No one knew what it was till I got there and I saw those dual drop-outs. I only knew of one guy in this area that had Bandito stuff so I asked him if it was an old bike of that guy, but he said he bought it from someone who also bought it used and did not know what it was.
That thing is in fantastic shape and Andrew Townsend actually raced it in an Open class moto. It would be near mint if it had the stickers on it still.
I wish I had brought my camera. How rare were these and does anyone else have one?

yeah i have one supposedly the 2nd cruiser ever made i bought it from a fellow vintage guy mine has single drop outs front and rear should be at rockford this year

the bandito bruiser was a cw tfm without the dropouts(cw made them).just restickered and serial number..does your cruiser start with bc??
