why +12%? I'm just curious. Is 12% the loss of power at transmition and wheel so you calculate power on engine? Dunno I'm not a bike guy :D

[Boembieks]

@MuF123 :  Competely right .

[mably23]

hey boembieks, im thinking about getting a B12 are they fun to ride? had an R6 last year but i want something with my torque and more comfort, i took my mates 07 GSXR 1000 out for a spin the other day but that thing was just nuts! cheers

[Boembieks]

@mably23 Torque is what the Bandit is about . Of course you can't compare with the GSXr . That has over 170bhp .

But the R6 has simply no torque at all .

After a good "torqie" afternoon , a can scratch my knees without bending over .

Thát's the Bandit !!

"Only the brave controls the Bandit"

I agree with you!!!!!!!!!!

[BANDITBRON]

Just to let you know I highsided myself off my B12 and it is not funny. Broken arm, angry wife and no other bike to ride... ok, ok it was a loose oil sump bolt and i failed to tighten the bolt as I was distracted by neighbour. Just y'all be careful and wear your gear ( which saved me - 60 mph and the gloves and cordura are in shreds) ride in t-shirt and jeans? - forget about living!! Miss the bike big time. One day though...one day I will be back.

The motor can easily make over 160 hp modded, but heat becomes an issue. These oil cooled motors run very well if Hp is kept reasonable (under 145hp) and last forever. It is a long stroke design so piston speed gets silly over 9500-10000rpm. Chassis and short swingarm don't deal with the power well, when pushed to extremes....but is fine for goofing off...hey it was never meant to be a race bike.

I have an 2002 Bandit 1200, with basic intake exhaust mods, aftermarket shock and re-valved/sprung fork, geared 5 up on rear. Prob making 115 hp/80lbs tq. but who cares. It is fun to ride. Power is smooth below 4000rpm and brutal above 7000rpm. It will run hard with any bike up to 125mph from any speed (tops around 145-150 mph). Its about the same weight as the new naked streetfighters. It'll run well on the cheapest crap gas out there. Replacement parts are cheap. No antifreeze needed!

mis je de bandit al een beetje ?? :)

[dracozeus2007]

Ya know I've had the pleasure of having one at of each. The GSXR1000 is an amazing bike but the torque of my Bandit 1200 is great it doesnt need the rpms's like my GSXR did.

[grinsepeter123]

ich liebe bandit..

[Lange239]

so I have a bandit too with an cobra exhaust with 128,5hp it is not that really much faster than an yamaha R6 but the tourque is amazing!going up the hills you`re really faster than the R6 even when you look at the rpm!or even a bike with equal hp witth less tourque it really needs the rpms!

bandit is that king

[gh1979]

What´s the mods on this bandit?

[MuF123]

@Boembieks But why calculate power of engine while the thing that matters is the power on wheel?
