The GSF 600S Bandit launched in spring 1995.The 1996 Suzuki GSF 600S Bandit is outdated as a supersports, but fine as an all-rounder. Free-revving, flexible-ish, novice friendly and solid as old boots. The GSF 600S Bandit isn't cutting edge, but no messing honest instead. Only in 1998, the GSF 600S models with the Honda Hornet 600 and the Yamaha FZS 600 Fazer as well as the two-cylinder SV 650 from the company's own home earned serious competition.
