What Is It?

The Suzuki Bandit 600 is a popular mid-range naked bike and is powered by an air / oil cooled 599 cc inline four engine, producing 77 bhp at 10,500 rpm and maximum torque at 9,500 rpm.

Features include:

• Steel tubular frame
• Dual 290 mm discs up front with Nissin two piston calipers
• 240 mm disc at the rear with Nissin single piston caliper
• 41 mm fork with 130 mm travel
• Adjustable rear shock with 126 mm travel
• Suzuki Advanced Cooling System (SACS)
• 6 speed gearbox

Improvements over the 1995-1999 model include a new sharper looking frame, 6 mm longer wheelbase, new geometry for sharper steering, re-styled tail, better low end throttle response, slightly larger fuel tank, larger front brake pistons, 5 mm lower seat, bolt on pillion peg brackets, easier to use centre stand and LED backlit instruments however the weight increased by 2 kg.

For slightly more protection from the elements the GSF600S is essentially the same bike but with a fairing and 4 kg added to the weight.

The 17" wheels take a 120/60 tyre at the front and a 160/60 at the rear.

Colours: Black, yellow, silver, blue, red

It's also known as the GSF600.
