LongWayToFall 0 #4 May 6, 2008 How dare you say such a fine machine is an antique. That engine (overbored to 1156cc) has been used in the Bandit 1200 up until 1 or 2 years ago. It is an excellent motor, just make sure you stay up with the valve adjustments and oil changes. The air/oil cooled bikes really heatcycle, it will break down the oil quick. Luckily, the valves are adjusted easily because they are screw and nut style adjusters, no shims for you! The aftermarket on that bike is huge, probably bigger than any other bike ever. So as soon as you are ready for haulin major ass at the dragstrip, look into it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
