I still find my self watching this video every month or two. Great road, great weather, lovely town here and there, sweat and smooth rider. Awesome video!
I just subscribed! Such a beautiful place and some of the best riding I've ever seen. Great video. Thanks for posting it, too. I was looking around at Bandit 600s because I'm thinking about buying one, then I came across this.
In America for an older bike I'd have to say this is a very underestimated bike. To many rich kid bros try to race you and you just embarass them. Mine just kicked on for the first time in the year and I'm working out the glitches. However shit still has power.
BANDITS RULE!! I'VE GOT A GSF 650 BANDIT, NOT EVEN A BANDIT S, BETTER THAN A BANDIT S. THE ACCELERATION, KINDA TIME VORTEX, BUBBLE, TUNNEL ENHANCING EXPERIENCE. BRING BACK BANDITS, BANDITS REALLY ARE MAGICAL, ENGINES MADE BY WIZARDS.
lol ,thats cool i see the front feels planted though we still see a bit of wobbling on high speed corners, as you say standard shock at the end of its live... on mine i'm using a Gixxer shock which did wonders to the handling, but im still on standard front springs so i get that pogo stick effect lol!.. Ride Safe cheers
Ok thanks m8y my clutch has gone that's why couldent do more than 80 centrifugal force wouldent hold beyond that what did you get it upto I couldent see
Thanks! I've heard good things about the pilot roads... I might be switiching to them soon as my bridgestone 021's just don't feel right to me. Especially in the wet!
Banditride oh man sorry to hear that I can imagine the heartache. Hope you didn't get injured at least? The bandit is replaceable, bones aren't always.
karesz leszko sprained wrist , knee and burns on my legs :/ My neck hurt a bit too.. But I was wearing my leather jacket and boots too, and new leather gloves . The bandit will be replaced by a SV 650. You are the first to get the news haha !
Great ride but a bit idiotic around some of those bends at those speeds at the start of the video, if there was a knob head in a car or van broken down or something... you had a full lean on, you would have had no chance, be careful buddy bloody hell. Where is this by the way? looks like Gibraltar or Morocco, lovely place wherever it is. I passed my Mod 1 and 2 test recently on a Bandit N600, I love it to death and I want one so much, saving pennies =P
Yeah i know buddy, i've changed my mind, and I don't ride like this anymore, i'm way relax ;). It's between Monte Carlo and Nice (south of france). The bandit is a great bike for commuting, solid, but it's not a sport bike, but she's a great bike for a learner and she's fun :)
Banditride Respect. Nice vid, crazy turns tho damn. I am looking into getting a Suzuki Bandit 600. Any pointer for what to keep an eye out for? like known parts that wear out sooner then the rest? My first bike is a Buell Blast 500 and she was a blast to ride but it time to move on.
Not surprised you had a crash m8.......Should only ride that way when roads are fairly Quiet,At least you were wearing proper gear and not shorts and t shirt ....Been riding since early 80s and touch wood only had couple minor prangs , Bandits are great bikes for not much money .
ZERO XX77 You're absolutely right ... I know .. It had to happen :/ Now I'm not going to ride like this even with quiet roads . The crash changed my mind. And Yes, the gear saved my ass, my skins and bones. Thank you for your comment, ride safe m8 !
One day you will fall..hope you will be fine after that day..but one thing is for shore..you will never ride like this on a public road after that..Talk from my experience..even if i want, i can t anymore. i admit that i am afraid now, it s not worth it...and i'm considering a good thing.. :). ride safe!

Mid 2020 and it is still the best bandit 600 video out there
Grzegorz Zep thanks mate haha ! I ride a cb hornet 600 now.
Bandit Skill Level = Expert! You kick ass. I just got a 2000 model the other day.
Got a Suzuki Bandit 600 S 1997. Love it to bits!!!!! Can't ride like this dude but it's great!!!!
Cheers buddly. I love the way you can wave with your left hand and still take those corners! In the UK it's a little more tricky haha :-)
I just subscribed! Such a beautiful place and some of the best riding I've ever seen. Great video.

Good rider. I'am brasilian i like your channel
Bandits forever
This is such a sweet run...lovely riding boss!
I enjoyed every second of this vid mate, hope you recover soon!
O. István Thanks ! Yes, I am :) ! ride safe !
the first corner :0, i swear the tank was like 1 inch of the floor. I'm looking to get a bandit somewhere around a 2000 model :).
its not thats just camera angle
Amazed you didnt loose your head with those corners, your head is on the opposite lane so much! Keep safe man.
MrChiel78 Haha, cheers !
wow dude! excellent riding skills! those turnings! Amazing vid :)

I know, It's the rider that count, not the bike .. Even if some bikes are certainly more fitted to ride on track etc.
Superbe cette petite balade !!! Entre Eze et Nice pres de la Turbie
GoPro Hero 2 , sorry forgot to mention it ;) BTW thanks for your videos RJ, love them !
Cool ride, dude! Awesome skills!

Banditride :D where do you place your feet without footrest??? :D which tires do you ride??
LockDog666
Sorry for the delay .. I'm using Michelin Pilot Road 2 (160/17 rear et 120/17 front)
No Problem ;) Thanks for your answer.
Keep on riding and filming it *thumbsup*
I am a bandit rider but f** me your video made me shit my pants just by watching it haha. Good skills. Ride careful buddy.
karesz leszko Sadly I just crashed 2 weeks ago. No more Bandit :/

Banditride that will heal. Looking forward for the sv 650 video. Ride safe bro!
nice vid m8 ,she's doing great!.. are you still using standard suspension/springs F&R.??
Is that the Eze that is built on a rocky hill?
Yes :)
Great ride but a bit idiotic around some of those bends at those speeds at the start of the video, if there was a knob head in a car or van broken down or something... you had a full lean on, you would have had no chance, be careful buddy bloody hell.

Ware you knee draging at one point? ?? If yes im very impressed badits are heavy bikes to get down:)
No, foot rests are rubing hard ... :(
Well even so impressive
Insha Allah
super
600 is very flickable and has a cult following now esp mk1
Hey what tyres and sizes do you use?

You will miss the bandit if you move over to SV!
No final kick! :-)

Yes, I totally agree with you ahah :D
Michelin Pilot road 2 rear 160/17 - front 110/17
Yep she does, Not for the front suspension, I'm using Ohlins springs for the front , and the rear is original, & dead ahah
Oui ... Je ne l'avais pas (comme souvent en été), c'est pas malin et y'a pas d'excuse. Par contre j'ai mes bottes, tout le temps.
Ahaha thanks, I don't drive like this anymore ;)
Yep, sorry, I didn't realize, i'm french ! Anyway, thanks ;)
One day you will fall..hope you will be fine after that day..but one thing is for shore..you will never ride like this on a public road after that..Talk from my experience..even if i want, i can t anymore. i admit that i am afraid now, it s not worth it...and i'm considering a good thing.. :). ride safe!
