Hi all

Im happy to report that I recently passed my full motorcycle license. Ive been riding for a good couple of years on my 125 and im itching really hard to buy my first big bike.

Found this Suzuki Bandit very local to me and I was wondering if maybe somebody could advise.

Im having second thoughts because its a big engine and because its pretty old.

I was thinking about trying to get this bike down to 2000

Thanks in advance

Thanks buddy

What you say makes perfect sense. I took a 600 for a test ride today and it really felt like plenty of power.

Glad I could help. And honestly a 600 might actually be faster on your B roads. It will definitely be more nimble and more fun.
