I love my bandit, hoping to change soon though.

Bandit's engine wasn't lifted from RF600R, it was taken from oil cooled GSXF600 Katana and detuned from 86hp to 77hp. However: forks,wheels,brakes,rear light was taken from RF

Why have you put the fazer bhp as 81 when it has 95?

Some greedy asking prices for 1st mid size used bikes as of August 2021,... BUT there are a handful of fair deals to be had if able to establish polite & well timed rapport with the right seller & bike.

Best bike FZS 600 Fazer (.) End of review. The bandit engine is from the gsxf 600 oil/air cooled, not from the rf, by the way.

@@jamesfoo8999 the Bandit nice bike ofc same with the Yamaha but they just dont keep up with the driveability of the hornet nor the reliability , this is ofc only if they are all around the same price range, if the suzuki is like 30-40% off the Hornet id go for that .. last id need at least 50 % dicount on the Hornets price to go Yamaha.. remember you have to factor in resell value also .. hornet is just better quality then the other 2 .. so looks. power, driveability, resell value .. = Hornet wins .. then Suzuki then the Yamaha .. but that`s just in my book ofc

Bandit has the best chassis, but the Honda’s engine is a country mile better than the others.

Chassis, the fazer 600 gen 1 has a steel tube chassis, much better than the later ones, which were aluminium, albeit lighter it's not as solid. The gen 1s are the ones to have nowadays, great engine, ridiculously reliable to over 250k, fun and comfortable to ride anywhere for numerous hours and hit that 6000 rev mark and behaves completely different in all gears, it pulls and pulls. The only negatives are that Darth Vader front fairing looks dated immediately and with heavier riders, if you're not young and fit enough you'll get a nasty, but lovely for some, shock that the back end starts to get a bit flappy, but with an upgraded rear suspension coil it might get easier. As to your 'statement' about Honda's engine better by a country mile 🤣🤣🤣 Yeah right, where's the evidence?
