What kind of problem does a 1998 Bandit have?
I have a 1998 Bandit with 80K miles. On a recent trip of 160 miles, the bike started and ran fine as usual. The weather was warm and sunny. At the last gas stop before our destination, when I turned on the ignition switch to start the bike, only the green neutral light and red oil pressure light on the dash came on.
Where does the oil light go on a bandit?
Been examining a wiring diagram to look for a suspect area, but looking at it, the indicators etc get their power from the same place as the Oil / Neutral light, and the side lights have their own contact on the ign switch so you can leave a light on at night while locking the steering.
What was the problem with my Kawasaki bandit?
The main fuse was OK, the kill switch was off. The battery was not dead and jumper cables off a truck battery nor bump starting did not work. All connections were checked, but to no avail.

Are there any issues with the Suzuki Bandit 1200?
One issue that is starting to plague Bandit 1200 models is the carbs gumming-up if left standing due to modern fuel and if the bike doesn’t tick over smoothy or is a pig to start, assume there a blockage in there that needs cleaning out.
