| == 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.
