2001 Suzuki GSF1200 Bandit review from United States of America
"Fast, fun, reliable, affordable"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Gas gauge reads a little low sometimes..
General comments?
She is amazingly quick and full of torque. I would never have guessed at the performance in this bike.
While she corners well, she is a tad heavy when compared to 600 sportbikes or even some other similar sized bikes, but it's worth it.
Well fast enough for me, she is also comfortable and pretty.
This is not a beginners bike.
