I see someone has already mentioned pressure washing elsewhere in the comments, not a good idea as evidenced by the bikes reluctance to start after the wash followed by the initial misfire once running until things started to dry out a bit from the heat generated by the engine. There are an awful lot of places that the water can be forced into that may never ever be able to dry out completely, including the spark plug caps (which is from where I suspect the initial start up and misfire emanated). Always, always take your bike for a quick run after washing it unless it is used daily and even then I take it for a short run before parking up. I have a 1200 Bandit and have had since purchased new in 1998, but the 600's are still a great bike and in most situations the 600 would be more than adequate. I spent a day on a GSF650 Bandit and was seriously impressed and it made me wonder about the necessity for the extra cc's but I still love those extra cc's every time I turn the tap lol
Damn wish I had roads like this in the uk looks so much fun there.Lovely sounding bandit,I think mine sounds the same but unfortunately I’m unable to blast about here like yourself.
Hi! I somehow happened upon one of your vids and now am binge watching 😃 Love that sound! Guessing you're in north half of Germany maybe? You go by road signs so fast it's hard to tell LOL
@@KIOWA_BIKELIFE Hallo! I'm from nearby a very small place "ort" in West Central Indiana, US. I lived in Deutschland two times while I was in U.S. Air Force. We we in the Frankfurt (Heisse) area 1988 to 1992 and the Kaiserslautern area Rheinland-Pfalz the wnd time. 1995-2001. Of course we loved it, most of all the German friends we made. Hope "alless gut fur dich !" Sorry. I haven't used my "Bierhalle" Deutsch in a very very long time. I am hapoy to make your friendship! And see your great videos.
It's a perfect beginner bike. When you're completely new to motorcycles, I would even recommend you to use a 48PS limiter. When you think the price is right, go for it. 🤘🏻
wierd question to ask ..but .. how many km/miles do you get out of a tankfull with this kind of riding ? .. asking cause i`m picking 1 up come Feb :D .. 2004 model and want to know how much i should kinda expect to wring out
WELL, FUNNY RIDE, NICE ROADS, MY BANDIT GSF 600 S MUST BE NOW IN A WINTER PREPARE FOR ME , BECAUSE I CAN STARTED NEXT YEAR ON A FULL BALLS !

Northern Germany isn't even the best part to ride in Germany. It's quite flat, in comparison to southern Germany 🎢.
@@KIOWA_BIKELIFE looks alot like our Danish roads .. lovely and straight :D
Great footage. Looking at Bandit 600's at the moment. Cheers for this
Thanks man ✌🏻, no problem
They are great reliable bikes
@@kdzenins got one 😁👍😎
@@dannycartwright2342 Thats great!👍🏽 First bike?
@@kdzenins no, bought this as a run about
Ahh...I see a location Niedersachsen.
This is amazing. Please make more.
Thanks mate ✌🏻. I would love to, but I've got a new bike for this season. But I'm planing to produce new RAW sound videos with this bike soon 💨...
Mam takie suzi i nie wolno ja myć na myjni ..moje maleństwo Suzuki Bandit starzeję się ze mną 😁😁🇵🇱❤️
Nice vids bro keep it up! How do you find the mirrors? Are they too small? Really like the look but concerned as they are tiny!
as the batteries suffer from the giant bandit engine, I have a bandit 1200
those downshifts are 😃😃😃
😃😃😃
@@KIOWA_BIKELIFE i've followed u on insta 🤠
@@lewisjones1182 Thanks for the support bro 👊🏻
That's fair play. But I managed to bounce mine off the top of 6th in my video.

had to sub to this sweet sweet sound
Thanks 🔊🤘🏻
Hi mate where did you get does clusters and headlight? They are awsome..
Nice video! What’s the headlight?

Thanks 🙏
Sweet bike
Thank you 🤘🏻
hey habe auch eine bandit, aber die 600s von 2001, die fährt sich gut wenn man den dreh raus hat wie man den choke richtig einstellt^^
Der Choke ist am Anfang nen bisschen tricky ✌🏻. Aber nach 10 Kilometern solltest du ohne fahren können. Sonst musste am Vergaser was machen.
@@KIOWA_BIKELIFE das mache ich auch. beim starten 100% und dann gehe ich runter auf 50-75% und fahre so bis der motor warm ist.
Wenn der Choke nicht nach allerspätestens 2 Minuten komplett raus kann stimmt was nicht @@KIOWA_BIKELIFE
Hahaha, i like your style, even the road it's not enough 😂
i think my 98 Bandit 600 in Black/Gold does sound a bit better with GPR 300mm Exhaust and cobra downpipe :)
Cool
Awesome 🔥
Thanks 💨
@@KIOWA_BIKELIFE i just bought a 1995, i love this sound 🔥
Old engines are great 🤘🏻
queimagem e audio perfeitos nossa fiquei de cara nem aprece ser gopro
Obrigado pelo comentário agradável. A GoPro é ótima.
I found one of these at a local dealer used for three grand. Looks like a steal judging by this footage. Would you recommend this bike to a beginner?
It's a perfect beginner bike. When you're completely new to motorcycles, I would even recommend you to use a 48PS limiter.
When you think the price is right, go for it. 🤘🏻
Ich sehe, dass Sie am Motorrad ein weiteres Licht angebracht haben. Von welchem anderen Motorrad stammt dieses Licht? Von einer KTM?
Die Lichtmaske ist von LSL. Ist der Nachbau einer MT-03 Maske ✌🏻
Great! Is the engine original or tuned? Appears to be more than 78Hp...
Thanks. It's original, I would even say that she runs a bit less than 78hp. Is yours way slower?
@@KIOWA_BIKELIFE I am not sure, maybe not. Watching the video first time it just looked impressive
What do you mean by RAW sound ? Are you using additional microphones or is this purely go pro standard audio?
Sounds great!
Thanks, its just the audio from the GoPro Hero 8 which is doing a great job in wind noise reduction, plus the extreme loud pipe without db killer ✌🏻
@@KIOWA_BIKELIFE sounds brilliant! Cheers
wierd question to ask ..but .. how many km/miles do you get out of a tankfull with this kind of riding ? .. asking cause i`m picking 1 up come Feb :D .. 2004 model and want to know how much i should kinda expect to wring out
The fuel consumption was around 7-8l/100km. I think I had to fill her up every ≈220km 👍🏻.
Have fun, ride safe 🎢.
Woher kommst du ?
Welche Lichtmaske hast du da? Fände ich für meine cool und wie hast du die montiert :)?
Es ist die Lampe der MT-03, die kannst du z.B. bei Louis kaufen. Die Halterung habe ich selbst gebaut, da die von LSL 200€ kostet ✌🏻
@@KIOWA_BIKELIFE und wie lief das mit den Anschlüssen? kann man die Problemlos anschließen?
Kann sein dass ich was löten musste, sind aber maximal 3 Anschlüsse ✌🏻
darf man den heck umbauen oder kriegt man Probleme beim Tüf
Da würde ich Mal direkt beim TÜV nachfragen
what mirrors are these (Where you got the handelbar and the mirrors?)
Unfortunately I can't tell you the exact product name. I only know that the handelbar is a LSL bar ✌🏻. The mirrors are some cheap ones from Ebay.
What year is your bandit and whats the fastest you ever gotten it to go?
It's from 95 and the top speed is about 220kmh.
Moin! Wo aus Niedersachsen kommst her?
Nähe von Hannover ✌🏻
Which year is this one and which exact model?
It was build in the first production year in 1995 ✌🏻
which headlight is this? also how did you get the black covers for the tachometer?
It's the MT-03 headlight and I powder coated the tachometer.
@@KIOWA_BIKELIFE what's the process of powdercoating them? remove chrome first, then powdercoat?
@@SuperMetin5 Exactly, I hand grinded the chrome, masked off the glass parts myself and then gave it to a professional to powder coat it ✌🏻.
can you do the same to headlight, and headlight bracket?
@@SuperMetin5 The headlight is black out of the box. And I spray painted the brackets myself.
I see you have the same bad habit as me of constantly turning off your turn signals
You're definitely not alone. A lot of people are checking their turn signals because they don't want to be the idi*t who left them on.
Hey, what kind of bar is that ?
Unfortunately I can't tell you the exact product name. I only know that it is a LSL bar ✌🏻
Thank you, i was thinking about a renthal bar for mine I just do not know how it fits
@@nonamer7560 just one way to find out. I guess you have to test it ✌🏻
Was fürn auspuff?
Von Hurric, im Video ohne DB ✌🏻
Restricted...
What's restricted?
KIOWA Your Bandit correct me if i’m wrong
A restricted bandit isn´t able to run 200 km/h + 😉.
I just forgot to take of the 48 hp Sticker on the tank ✌.
KIOWA I have a 2004 Bandit and I have twice its acceleration, that's why I said
@@racerguy3972 Mine is the oldest model from '95 but I still highly doubt that you're having TWICE the acceleration.
Karcher on this bike.... No.. they don't like.
