My wife's suzuki bandit 650 k7

looks a minter. nice colour

 

Nice !! I love Bandits, got a mk1 1200 in the garage at the mo...I think its Bandit number 5 if I remember rightly :biggrin:
Never had a 600, or one of the new K series though.

 

you wanna try a 1200 if you think the 650's quick !

 

In the grand scheme of things, my old Bandit is a dinosaur. I have a dyno chart showing 123bhp at the wheel, which for a Bandit is respectable, but compare that to my old gsxr1000k4, which had a lot more than that, and you get the picture...
In contrast, my Bonnie has half the power of my B12, but its great. I didn't buy it to go quick.
I never thought I'd see the day
I must be getting old :frown:

 

Does look in great condition and best of luck to your wife for Friday.
The Bandit is quite heavy but they are great dependable bikes and good value for money. I was amazed how quick my old 600 Bandit felt, it was my first bike after a long lay off (kids, work and no money!!). A year later I bought the very last 1200 air -oil cooled Bandit, it was the new frame but with the old engine and very quick and wheelie happy lol.

2008 Lake District heading to Hardknott Pass....... I must be the only one to make a 1200 Bandit look small.

 

lol is that a bandit 120??? I have never ridden one but a guy I know has had his for eons and loves it. He does have a 1967 Bonnie too tho,lol

 

Hardknott pass, what a fantastic place to be, its a few years since I went over there, I think I was on a Honda CBX750 the last time I went there.

 

I used to get horny about those cbx 750s now I know I am weird. looks amazing up there.

 

But are you allowed to take it for a blast?

 

:biggrin:

 

Fantastic old bikes they are !
