== Review ==
Introduced a year after the
unfaired Bandit 600, the Bandit'S' extended the practical use of the Bandit
significantly by the simple expedient of fitting a frame-mounted
half-fairing. Suddenly, what had been a bike best kept in town or on twisty
back roads had an additional long-distance touring dimension.
Much of the 'S' was identical to
the base bike. The engine is a variation of the GSX600Fs powerplant, a
16-valve inline-four oil-cooled design which produces 58kW (78bhp) in this
application. The long-running GSX engine is both reliable and economical,
although the dated nature of the design shows in its performance compared to
more modern liquid-cooled engines such as Yamaha's Fazer or Honda's Hornet
600. This original 1996 Bandit'S' had
a rather anonymous square headlight fairing, and many riders preferred the
styling of the naked bike. But the fairing improved comfort and weather
protection at motorway crusing speeds, making the Bandit'S' a useful budget
tourer.
A model update in 2000 had a new,
twin projector headlight fairing, and the new frame and engine modifications
of the unfaired bike. The revamped fairing gave more modern styling, better
wind protection and improved aerodynamics. Engine changes include new
carburettors with TPS throttle position sensors, linked to a more advanced
ignition system, and with a different exhaust design, giving the engine an extra 3kW (4bhp) in the
mid-range. But peak power remained the same at 58kW (78bhp), some way off
the class standard of nearer 67kW (90bhp) in 2000.
Chassis modifications were
similarly understated - a new frame design lowered the seat height, the
brakes were slightly modified and the fuel capacity increased to 20 Liters
(4.4 gal). The Bandit remained a popular
choice after 2000, but stiff opposition from Honda's Hornet'S' and Yamaha's
Fazer badly affected sales.
