    well what can i say the 1200 bandit, it has loads of torque,pulls like a train and is good for over 150mph,iv had mine dyno jetted which made the throttle responce better,the front forks have had up rated spring,changed the front sprocket for a 14 tooth,the rear suspension is jacked up,standard can replaced with a stubby race can,sounds awsome,i would recomend this bike to anyone,its a good all rounder,its comfy on a long run and riden hard you can still get your knee scraping the tarmac,i dont have any problems on the twisty bits keeping up with race replicas.all in all its a good compramise to a sports/race replica,i cant wait to take it on a track day

    This is a motorcycle that is good for most everything from touring to canyon carving. It is best at touring as I know I can ride for hours and hours in comfort. Flat out reliable, starts every time even when cold. When it comes to sport biking if falls short. Because it has a de-tuned GSXR motor, it lacks the kick of a sport bike and because the fork spring are weak they also compromise the handling. So, if anyone wants to use a Bandit for Track Days or Canyon Carving you are going to have to du ...

    I bought this Suzuki GSF 1200 Bandit Sports bike in 03 from an unreputable dealer (found this out after I bought the bike).
    Initially it suffered from timing and carburation problems (mostly when cold) which never really got sorted by the dealer. I changed the end can for something less restrictive and the changes were dramatic. (With the standard can the bike always felt as if was being held back...). the knocking dissapeared during warm up as well. during the winter I needed to clean the bike ...
