Suzuki Bandit description

 I got this bike for my partner, hoping she would want to ride it but she hasn't been into it so I want to move it before it ends up sitting for the winter. A great little bike, and very easy to get around on. A rare find--and runs like a charm.  The bike is clean, never been dropped, however does have a few scuffs from normal wear and tear--you can see those in the photos.  We bought it just 6 months ago and this is what has been done to it by the previous owner:

--Carbs have been completely rebuilt with all new O-rings, gaskets, float valves and a Factory Pro Stage 1 kit. Stock intake and exhaust.

--Fuel tank cleaned and epoxy sealed with Caswell kit (will never rust again).

--Manual cam tensioner installed

--valves adjusted

--new spark plug and ignition wires

--New brake pads (HH pads front, organic rear) and brake fluid flushed.

--New Pirelli Angel sport touring tires with less than 1000 miles on them (check out the reviews!)

--Radiator flushed and high temp thermostat installed

--New headlight

--Has an aftermarket windshield (see photo) Slipstream sports shield.

It has a pretty low seat height, I am 5'7" and my knees have a bend when flat-footed.  I'm guessing a 29"- 30" seat height although I haven't measured.  Easy to control, fun in the corners and just an all around great bike.  I would keep it but I prefer my Bandit 1200 for touring.  A few little extras to go with it such as an air filter, a few spark plugs and a the spare set of rear signal lights.  The ones that came with it were tiny.  While they looked nice, you couldn't see them on the freeway so I installed some nice white ones (orange bulb) that are just a bit bigger and easier to see.  Great looking and mechanically sound--clean title.  Thanks for looking. 

Prefer local buyer--if not buyer arranges and pays for their own shipping.

1974: Onboard an MV racer with Phil Read

Fri, 19 Feb 2010

ANOTHER CRACKING BIT of vintage racing footage, this time featuring multiple motorcycle world champion Phil Read on the awesome-sounding MV Agusta 500-4.The footage is from the 1974 movie 'The Iron Horse' made by Frenchman Pierre-William Glenn.Read’s 1974 500cc World Championship victory was the last year a four-stroke won the world title before the advent of the MotoGP class in 2002. Giacomo Agostini won the crown from Yamaha in 1975, followed by Suzuki-mounted Barry Sheene in '76 and '77. The footage is bloody good, considering the camera technology of the day.

Results From Day 2 Of World Superbike Testing At Phillip Island

Tue, 18 Feb 2014

World Superbike testing at Phillip Island came to a close today, and when the dust settled, reigning champion Tom Sykes stamped his authority, setting the fastest time of the test at 1:30.239, just five thousandths shy of the outright lap record held by Carlos Checa. The time was set during the morning session of testing, though nobody was able to best Sykes for the remainder of the day. Eugene Laverty, who was fastest on day one, showed his pace was no fluke as he stayed near the top of the time sheets, ultimately finishing second behind Sykes, with a best time of 1:30.513.

Video: The nastiest Suzuki in the whole range

Tue, 05 Apr 2011

Before I take myself off to our local casualty department  to get these graunching rib bones checked out, I thought it might be a good idea to tell you why you must buy a 2011 RM85 Suzuki as soon as feasibly possible. Time is running out. Two-strokes are toast, right?
