“Pretty good beginner bike: cheap and reliable, doesn't look too bad, enough power to have some fun but not enough to flip the bike. Downside is most maintenance information is for the older models and parts can be harder to come across these days, especially for these newer years.”
“Suzuki bandit 600. Brilliant first bike very easy to handle fast and comfortable to ride. And still holds its own against younger bikes it still looks modern even though it's 18 years old.”
“Great starter bike... enough grunt for a 500cc twin... suffers bad with rust and corrosion... wish it had wider wheels for bigger tyres. Brakes are good, comfortable and easy for commuting and long journeys”
“Ok basic bike that looks real nice and moden .only down falls it has are manual choke and no fuel gadge its abit under powered on the road unless you give it full throtal.breaks are great .the frames seem to bubble and paint flakes off .mine is a 2008 gs 500f swing arm is rusty common problem.great comuter bike or bit of cheap fun.”
“A fantastic companion- predictable, reliable and a fairly forgiving ride. Might not be the most glamorous but it will still do 0-60 in 4 seconds and it'll always start first time, every time”
