A very nice presentation my friend. An excellent job. Suzuki Bandits are especially sought out after by the European market, as most newer Suzuki's are. I have owned many carburetor bikes in the past & had no troubles with them. However, you cannot leave them alone over a period of time without starting them. I would recommend starting them @ least every other week & let them run for 20 min. or so. Also, please put your batteries on some kind of battery maintainer system & check frequently the electrolite level of the battery. Only add distilled water if needed. I agree that ABS is a nice feature, but if you are an articulate person with common sense, it is not needed. We drove bikes for years without this feature. I, like Gregor do not need a catalog of electronic gismos on my bike. It's called using a little common sense. Get off of that accelerator once in a while. Have a pleasant day. Cheers!!!
Thanks a lot Larry. That is true, just riding, this the therapy for them. In that case everything will be cool. As I remember you had a lot of them, also some Suzukis. Once it was very different. Today everything works with sensors. I still prefer the old-fashioned way as much as possible. :) That is why I like older bikes and styles. Today I went for a ride and I also filmed a bit. I wish you a nice day too my friend. Take care and say Hi to Trisha. Cheers.
@@RRRRefuelRideRace Yes, I owned all 4 of the different Japanese brands. Only owned 1 Harley Davidson (xr 1200). The engine was great, but you could only ride the bike for approx. 20 min due to the bad seat. Your ass was screaming at the end of 20 min. Cheers!!
Upravo tako. Sve servise možeš radit doma. Barem ono što je jednostavno. Inače i nije neki veliko potrošač. U prosjeki mi troši 4,6 litara na 100 km. :)
@@2W_Adventure Ja, sam imao i Talijana na karburator, Cagiva Canyon 500, i nekad me to nije zezalo. Upravo sve drugo. Bitno je da se motor vozi i ne staje na mestu. Pa i da kroz zimo ne kondenzira u rezervoaru. Tu je sve orginal a ima 76.000 km, na ovom Banditu. Karburatori nikad dirani. :)
@@Underthehelm That is right. He covered 100 km and he said that he is gonna go for a ride still this season, but somehow he didn't :) That is why I keep riding it. :) Very true my friend.

@@larrywade9041 Aha. I believe you and it probably had a lot of vibes. Cheers my friend.
@@RRRRefuelRideRace Actually it wasn't bad at all; not like those other paint shaker models. Illinois, USA
@@larrywade9041 Aha, I believe you. Some say that a lot of models are very vibey. :)
Very nice machine🏍
You did a great job!
Cheers bro 👌
I agree bro. Thanks for tuning in. Take care. Cheers.
Dober komentar za dober motor.
Hvala. Verjetno bi se še našlo kaj, kar bi lahko komentiral, a potem bi bil video še daljši. :)
I have an '05 GSF 650 and it's my favourite bike, great machines!
Overall a great bike. That is what I think. :)
Absolutely awesome big bike bro. Very interesting content. Ride Safe always brother
Thanks bro. I am glad that you like it. Will try to do some more of this kind. :) Ride safe. Take care.
You have a good solid bike there Gregor 👍🏍️
Yes, I agree Derek. Simple and easy to service. It also goes nicely. In a way like your GPZ500. :)
Hi Gregor I’ll do the price of the carb parts tomorrow on FB until then take care 👍🏍️
@@SOLOMOTOUK Yeah, sure. Feel free. :) Thanks Derek. Can check my community tab. :)
@@RRRRefuelRideRace ok will do Gregor 👍
@@SOLOMOTOUK Thanks Derek.
Wicked bike ❤️
I agree. :) It really is. Thanks for taking the time bro.
I agree with everything you said and that is why I have a k6 1200s bandit with only 12000 miles on it. Ride safe 🙏
Very nice. Keep it. A lifetime bike in my opinion. Thanks for stopping by. Appreciate it. Ride safe.
Nice review mate. Some great points. The Bandit has aged well and looks to be great value.
Thanks Matt. It is a simple bike in my opinion. I agree being a great value.
The bandit is one of the best motorcycles that Suzuki put on the market 👍
I completely agree my friend. Very reliable and simple.
My Rocket is fuel injected, but that's it. No ABS. No Traction control. Very basic. I love it.
I love simple bikes too. The problem is if you are buying new, you have just few of them available nowadays. Thanks Matthew.
kolega mi ga je imao ali više naked verziju i bio je prezadovoljan , prodao ga je ovih dana i kupio Stroma 1050... više mu je udobniji za njega i ženu
Aha. Ponekad treba i iči dalje. Razumje se. Čekaj... jesi ti toga od njega vozio ikad?
@@RRRRefuelRideRace da, ali nisam recenzirao niti išta, motormi je bio problem manevrirati jedino u mjestu dosta je nezgrapan/težak
Ta tvoj Bandit ima kar nekaj dobrih lastnosti.
Ima. Cenovno ugoden, enostaven in varčen. Še kaj bi se našlo.
prvo što bi promijenio n ovom motoru je zadnji top, auspuh ili ti Haubica :)
Slažem se. Auspuh je bio u planu ali... dok je original je orginal, zaš... :) Trebam dobro razmislit šta i kako. :)
@@RRRRefuelRideRace sve ok, samo mislim da su tu fulali sa dizajnom debelo
dobar bike a sve u svemu ne košta puno i održavanje je pristupačno...
Upravo tako. Sve servise možeš radit doma. Barem ono što je jednostavno. Inače i nije neki veliko potrošač. U prosjeki mi troši 4,6 litara na 100 km. :)
@@RRRRefuelRideRace to je super potrošnja , mene je jedino malo strah tih karburatora

@@RRRRefuelRideRace svaka čast, odlično.. samo neka služi i do 275 tisuća
Very Very reliable engine! 75000 that is nothing to this machine
Today I passed 76.000. :) I agree Saša. Everything works like it should. Runs very nicely. :) Thanks bro. Did you ride today?
@@RRRRefuelRideRace no bro I didn't have a time. Friends were at my apartment,talks and then it was too late for a ride.
@@Underthehelm Aha, I see. Next time for sure. :) Today it was pretty warm here. from 19 to 23 degrees C. :)
@@RRRRefuelRideRace that bike supposed to be your father's bike,but as I see you fell in love with it
@@Underthehelm That is right. He covered 100 km and he said that he is gonna go for a ride still this season, but somehow he didn't :) That is why I keep riding it. :) Very true my friend.
Carbs are no good when you have to use E10 petrol.
That can be a problem. I agree. Thanks for taking the time bro. Cheers.
Cakamo
Nedelja bo kmalu. 🙂
