Nice video, inspiring. I just got a 2004 bandit 600n. It's a bit on the rusty side with no modifications or cosmetics put on it. I hope to make it look a lot nicer than it is now.
Found this, noone here since 3 years. Getting my 1st Bandit next week. Thats an amazing work, you did. Cannot describe... you rescued a life. BUT there is one thing I really HATE about this bike. It really makes me mad... WHY IS THIS YOUR BANDIT, NOT MINE!!! Serious, really great work, you can be proud of yourself!
dear Risc... awesome video. even more the job done. finished same sort of project but not as worn as yours. you're the RebuildMeister!! thnx for sharing, mate...!!
Thank you for this amazing video mate... in time when i enjoi your movie ... i was feel like ... you know like im' alive... my heart it' was growin up... do not tink im a crazy... i really say how i feel't in this time you are a really big man
hi man, awsome job!!! i'm from brazil, my bandit is 95/96 and have a lot to do but i'm short of money... there are some things i can do by myself, i think i will start tomorrow, because if i wait too much i feel like i never gonna do something lol... thanks for sharing!!
This is actually insane!!! I have just stripped my bandit and am repainting it like yours! The most insane thing is I saw the purple number 17 bus and I didn't believe it at first and now I know the exact road you were on and I am also from Reading! :O
What a great rebuild. It looks so awsome :) I just bought my first bike, a 400 bandit. the carbs are leaking and cooler fan aint working, the air fuel mixture is wrong. Really looking forward to start fixing it but abit afraid I dont have enough knowledge. Its expensiv for mechanics in Norway. Again, GREAT BUILD, loved your laughter at the end :)
Hello sir! Thank you very much for your kind words. Do not worry about having the knowledge. Just treat each part of the bike as it's own project, and repair it one part at a time. Also, make good use of the internet, there are so many people that are interested in your bike and are happy to help you. Don't feel overwhelmed, just remember, one part at a time. Good luck with your project, and ride safe.
Awesome mate, really inspired! Going to have my bike off the road from the end of august and going to do a similar restoration to yours :) obviously cosmetic, I haven't been riding around on something THAT rusty haha ;) well done though, look great
Great project.. Great outcome,however their are still some stuff (don't know bout u) but I would have added/changed on it, like adding a belly pan and changing the head light to something like that of a fazer or similar... Anyway great work
+Michael Westgate It's easy enough but to do the frame you have to dismantle everything, I mean everything. Takes time and effort. Just get help to get the engine out, its quite heavy and could damage you and it's self.
+risc19 so don't just hoof it out on to the soft grass.. I might buy a whole new frame and transfer across. seen them for 60 quid odd, assuming it's legit and not wrote off. might be a short cut.
+michael westgate Could do! The grass isn't a bad idea however getting it all lined up with the frame when putting it back is a pain in the butt so may still need help (i did it alone). Yeah, pick up a new frame, I would recommend getting it sandblasted before painting as its got some very awkward little corners where rust could be hiding. Then just transfer parts over, good luck!
You should get an award for the video alone.
Brilliant mate.
Fantastic Job
Good job bro!

Ewelina Gołębiowska Thank you and ride safe.

I'm at the point of wanting to repaint the frame and engine... Is it easy enough to pull apart?
+Michael Westgate It's easy enough but to do the frame you have to dismantle everything, I mean everything. Takes time and effort. Just get help to get the engine out, its quite heavy and could damage you and it's self.
+risc19 so don't just hoof it out on to the soft grass..

+risc19 cheers
Hi the bike looks awesome, thinking of doing this to my bandit. Did you powder coat all the frame, swing arm, suspension engine etc?
Hello! Yes I did get the frame and the tank media blasted and powder coated. It was worth the money.
Did you paint the engine blok? :)
Yes with high temp paint.
holy shit i just came from the sound.
***** :)
I would love to be able to do this someday but I barely know how to change the oil :(
+Wise Fool Learn as you go along. Just plan, and find info on the internet. YOU CAN DO IT TOO!
***** Thanks for your reply!
Bravo Risc19 (Y) Like
Hey , did you sell this bike ? Think I might own it now :)
Hi, awesome job, i have a suzi too, mine is a 19 yo, i am also restorating it, could you reply me some things about what you've fitted? Thank's :-)
Wow... but.. Just one question : how many you put in your restauration ?
