You already know the drill when it comes to naming the motorcycles, and what an A suffix introduces. That's right, we're talking about ABS, so the story behind the 2007 MY GSF1250SA Bandit is pretty much revealed. The bike is identical to the base model but introduces the extra safety and peace of mind anti-locking brakes bring. The engine is the new one, with extra displacement and grunt, and fed through the new dual throttle valve system, with a new catalyzer and redesigned, more compact architecture.

Obviously, the frame is new, too, and so is the transmission, oil cooler, and the clutch.
