- Removing the carburettor or carb bank from the Suzuki Bandit isn't something that needs to be done often and it can be a little fiddly to achieve, but it is a straightforward process.

2 thoughts: it's lot easier to loosen throttle cables at the grip side and pull the carbs with them to the side then undoing the cables on the carb side, plus it's often difficult to readjust the cables at carb side as the access for a spanner is very difficult. Second, you'll get more place for removing the carb if you first completely remove air filter and its cover, not only undoing two screws that hold air box; it then allows to slide air box an additional centimeter to the back, which is a LOT, believe me :)
I find it's easier to disconnect the cables at the carbs. I've had these out enough that once you have the trick for it, then it's pretty easy. Yes, air filter and cover is a good move.
Good little video, thanks for sharing. My Bandit will only run with the choke fully open and from what I have read it’s probably blocked fuel jets in the carbs so this will be my next job, great to see what’s involved before giving it a go. 👍🏻
Good luck with that!
Oh , the joy !
Well, I'm going to stop moaning about mine as I don't have carb heaters to break (like I did on my xjr) and no pair valve junk either .. At least if you have to do your mk1
1200 carbs it's going to be easier in comparison.
I'm sure mine will be off again ad soon as my coils turn up and get fitted .. All the best brother 👍🏻☮❤
I need to get back on this and get that carb pulled apart again. Yes, pair valve... Ah the joys of these modern bikes! Good luck with those coils! Skäl David
First :-) .. Nice upload as always .. .. Its OK about carb heater ..its not really needed unless you live in a very cold environment .. But hear in UK its fine
Ha! Yes, might just swap it for one of the inner carb heater elements as I see they aren't so easy to get hold of. Thanks, always appreciated! Skäl David
I have one of these bikes as my daily commuter. Earlier this year is was having starting issues occasionally that seemed to be fuel related. I pulled & cleaned the carbs but this didn't help. Turned out to be the vacuum feed fuel valve on the bottom of the fuel tank. Suzuki only sell this valve complete & it is very expensive. The Chinese ones are garbage, however you can easily purchase a Japanese made aftermarket GSXR1100W fuel valve rebuild kit. The diaphragm fits this bike, just discard the other unused parts. Common issue.
A very clear video, but this is not an easy job. :) Anyways thanks for sharing. I would like to ask you if it is possible to get some oil leak on the top 8 cylinder bolts? The bike has 73.000 km and I just changed the oil and oil filter. I am not really sure about one of the bolts, because it could be that it was a bit greasy even before. Is there a gasket under those 8 bolts? Thanks for the answer. Appreciate it.
There will normally be a seal underneath. Clean it off and see if the oil comes back - then see if you need a new gasket.
@@MotoMirius I see. Thanks a lot.
Hi could you let me know were the 2 hoses go from either end of carbs ive bought one no n runner changed evap block and fuel tap but I don't know were these 2 go I see them on your bike this episode but can't see were they go thanks Baza
If they are the hoses I think you are referring to then they go back over the top edges of the airbox along the frame tubes
I thought Suzuki Bandits were all fuel injected. How far back do you have to go before you reach carburettor models, 2006 or so?
2006 yes, this is one of the last air cooled Bandits.
@@MotoMirius Oh right, thx!
2008 GSF 650. 2009 fuel injected.
2006 GSF 1200. 2007 GSF 1250 fuel injected.
I had same problem with mine but its an fuel injection, A Night Mare, Still problems . .. .
Looks like I right ball ache! I hope after all that you fixed the problem?
Well you know how it goes, fix one problem, find another! Hope you are keeping well!
Could you use cable ties instead of clamps
I wouldn't recommend it - it would be hard to guarantee no leaks. As a roadside fix it would be OK.
Get a KN filter set and forget the mess of removing the carbs corned between engine and air box...
Pod filters never work as well as an airbox and are just a pain to set up properly. They look good through.
Nothing is perfect... and pod filters have some drawbacks for sure. But it makes accessing the cabs so easy it's a pleasure removing them several times for adjusting 😉
@@yveslegrand9826 This is my commuter bike. It hacks up and down the motorway in the pissing rain and spray - it's never getting pod filters lol because waiting for the recovery truck because the filters got soaked with water is never fun.
@@MotoMirius you're quite right, this is one of the real problems of the pods. I am fortunate enough to have a bike for pleasure only. Riding in the wet is not a concern...
sorry for double post .. I noticed on a previous upload (in 2017, short service one) you said you wasn't keeping it ? ..obviously you changed your mind lol
I'm still not keeping it lol. I bought it because they were shutting down where I worked and proposed to move me somewhere a fair distance away. Instead they found somewhere closer I could work from - which was when I made the previous video. Then they closed that location, so now I have a long motorway commute a few days a week (or will again once lockdown is over), so I'm back to using this as a commuter - but I anticipate not staying in a job where I have to spend three hours a day commuting.
@@MotoMirius fair enough buddy ..sounds a right faff ..
Thanks for skipping the difficult part of removing the carbs..
Good luck with the job!
Seriously don't understand why you didn't make more effort to show people where the vacuum hoses go. You even mention how important it is to remember where they go. Why the hell didn't you show people? Thanks for wasting my time buddy.
When taking it apart, note where things go, it's an important skill for hoses, screws and similar parts. If I showed every single step, it would be a two hour video. If you wanted to know where they go, you could have asked. But I guess you thought that ranting would be better instead.
@@MotoMirius your points are valid, and I apologize for being rude, however you could have shown a better view of the carbs once you had them out of them out of the bike as one would be able to visually reference where things go.
@@arthurblack5328 Thanks, appreciated. Most of the complaints I get are that the videos are too long and detailed - the last complainer noted "it's not rocket science." I need to pull them again as they still aren't working properly and I aim to do that this weekend, so if you let me know what you need I can grab some photos and post them up.
