By Jon Urry on 31/03/2008 22:37:42
Suzuki's trusty Bandit has swollen in capacity for 2005, but is this enough to put the planet's longest-serving middleweight back in the frame?
like an on/off switch on fast stretches of road. By 9500rpm the power is all but gone though, and you get the 'flogging a dead horse' feeling.Continue the 2005 Suzuki Bandit 650 & 650S Review - 2/2JON SPEAKS TO BANDIT CHIEF ENGINEER TOSHIYUKI ENDOQ: Why
