Is the Suzuki Bandit 600 a good car?
The Suzuki Bandit 600 was so successful it spawned a whole class: budget middleweight roadsters. The recipe is simple take one aging but acceptable supersport engine, bung it in a basic, straightforward roadster chassis and price it as keenly as possible. The first Suzuki Bandits proved best sellers, great for novices and as all-rounders.
Why does my 2001 bandit 600 stop firing?
Q. My 2001 Bandit 600 has an intermittent misfire which is driving me mad. Every four to six months the number one cylinder stops firing when starting from cold. After a few seconds it’s OK, then over the next few days the misfire gets more persistent until below 3500 revs it won’t fire and the exhaust smells of petrol.
Which is the cheapest Suzuki GSF600 to buy?
It’s always been the cheapest in class and if the Yamaha FZS600 Fazer knocked it off its perch in pure performance terms, the GSF600 Bandit still rules the roost when it comes to squeezing every last pony out of every pound spent.
