Suzuki Bandit description

For sale by owner is a very nice Suzuki Bandit 1250 with plenty of nice accessories to make it a useful and enjoyable sport touring motorcycle. The recent acquisition of another motorcycle has caused an excess of vehicles in the household so this bike sadly needs to be sold. It has served the current owner well for approximately four years and in that time a few accessories have been added including a Madstad adjustable windscreen, Holeshot Performance touring exhaust, Koso Voltmeter, 2 Powerlet covered outlets (one on fairing, other at rear seat), Sargent world sport seat, Holeshot Performance stage 2 tuner, Holeshot Performance touring bars (including longer throttle cables), Galfer stainless steel braided brake lines, FIAMM horn, Holeshot Performance mirror extension spacers, and finally Koso heated grips with 5 settings. The motorcycle came with the Suzuki hard luggage (designed by Givi) matched to the motorcycle paint color and PUIG engine/drop posts attached to the front frame. The maintenance on the bike has been performed diligently every year and during the last season the chain and sprockets were changed, the brake pads were replaced (front and rear), and the tires were replaced with Michelin Pilot Road 4 touring tires (front and rear).

The original/additional aftermarket parts from the bike will also come with the motorcycle if the new owner desires to have them including: factory air box parts removed for stage 2 tuner kit, stock muffler, original handlebar, rubber brake lines, stock throttle cables, 3 windscreens (factory, National Cycle V-stream, and Zero Gravity double bubble smoke), and Holeshot exhaust silencer for slip on muffler (never installed), and stock horn.

The bike runs great with the Holeshot Performance tuner and has plenty of torque all through the operating RPM of the bike. The exhaust has a nice sound without being too obnoxious (subjective assessment by current owner) and the black color and compact size complements the look of the bike. The motorcycle has had the recent recall service for the regulator/rectifier performed and the suspect part replaced. The bike does have some nicks and scratches from use and road debris as is expected for a used motorcycle. Additionally it has some scratches on the bar end, RH mirror, and engine guard from being dropped on its side in the owners driveway. Fortunately no body panel damage was done thanks to the engine guard post. Finally the fairing cover has a small 7/16" drilled hole in it where the auxiliary light controller was removed (lights not being sold with motorcycle) and there is some superglue residue on the top fairing surface from the heated grip installation. The heated grips, hard bags, aftermarket seat, adjustable windscreen, tires, power outlets, and touring bars make it a very enjoyable motorcycle for longer trips. This will be a great motorcycle for someone that is looking for a used sporty motorcycle that can adequately fill in for touring duty when desired. I know anyone who is looking for this size motorcycle will enjoy the Bandit for many years to come!

Teaser: 2012 Japanese Literbike Shootout – Video

Thu, 29 Mar 2012

The last time we assembled the superbike offerings from the Big Four Japanese manufacturers to determine the alpha male model was 2009. The CBR won that confrontation, but a lot’s changed since then. For 2012 Honda revamped the CBR1000RR, Yamaha added traction control to the R1, the GSX-R1000 lost a muffler and last year Kawasaki introduced an all-new ZX-10R.

Motorcycle So Big It Needs Training Wheels

Tue, 21 May 2013

Apparently, the American motto of “bigger is better” has struck a chord with someone in China, of all places. This giant beast of a motorcycle measures over 14 feet long and almost eight feet tall, and was built by a Chinese sewage plant worker in his spare time. The motorcycle is so big, it needs outriggers to make sure it doesn’t tip over.

2014 Suzuki V-Strom 1000 Concept

Thu, 11 Jul 2013

Suzuki is currently testing prototype versions of the 2014 V-Strom 1000 first teased during the Intermot Expo in Germany last year. The company also has a dedicated V-Strom 1000 website centered around the concept, its inception, design challenges, and what Suzuki hopes to achieve with the new model. Judging by the photos, the new Strom will retain the same 996cc V-Twin engine first seen on the original Strom 1000 11 years ago.
