Would a restricted 33bhp 600 bandit be any gd?

[chalky143]

Im wondering how good is a 600 bandit restricted to 33bhp is? what is the top speed and how fast does it do 0-60mph, as an estimate, oh and is it crap on fuel?

cheers

I cant be bike specific but my GSXR600 (33bhp) pulls about 103 indicated top speed (well it doesn't at the moment :'() the 0-60 I have never actually timed but for one I'll tell you I have yet to be beaten to it by anything around town with four wheels, and most of the sunday sports bikers can't do it faster than me either, it's usually the streetfighters or the motards that show me up
So you are probably looking at slightly under 100 top speed and still a fairly rapid 0-60.

I suppose I might as well mooch on in.

I have a restricted Suzuki Bandit 600 S Faired version K4. (2004)

It pulls to 60 in about 4 seconds at a guess maybe a bit quicker. I've had mine at about 110 MPH on the track.

Insurance wise, I'm 18 years old and I have 2 years NCB and I am paying £220 TPFT.

i rode a restricted bandit for about 2 months, it was ok but im not sure i could have coped with it for 2 years. I suppose I was used to having more power and it probably felt like more of a restriction. If you really feel you want to keep within the law then i think a bandit is really not a bad way to go. It did 100 and was a hell of alot quicker than a 125, sounded good and looked the part.

When I bought my Bandit 6 (2004 model) it was restricted and was a complete dog to ride compared too when it was full power.

I got about 110 restricted (downhill mind) and fuel consumption was excellent in restricted form.

In full power form my ZX6R seems to be better on fuel.

I put this down too as to go the same speed your not working the ZX6R where as the bandit you would be.

I've got 2 months left before I can legally remove my restrictors, served 5 months on a restricted GS500E and the rest on the GSXR600K4, I'm a good boy see (or maybe just a pansy )
