Hey peepz!

Read some nifty comments abt dis bike frm some magazines. It was rated 7/10 frm Fast Bike magazine.

 

Has dis baby been release in singapore?

 

anyone riding it?

 

any reviews, anyone?

[Cyanide14]

Looks a bit like Fazer, but looks great too!

Hope to see it in real life!

 

[Constipated Face]

It's a pity the tank size dropped from 20 to 19 litres. That could mean an almost 20km shorter tank range.

[wAnDeRiN_sPiRiTz]

asked a few shops, seems like some dun knoe dis bike exists. One of the shop mixed dis bike wif one of suzuki's chopper!

Apparently one of my fren saw dis bike on the road but it was in 2006, so i think i'll just hafta wait till it swims across the ocean.

[Jeffaw]

UP for the bike!!

 

I think it look more fearsome than Fazer!

 

btw wAnDeRiN_sPiRiTz bro,

 

I jeffrey, the 1 who tok to u at CDC yesterday!

[wAnDeRiN_sPiRiTz]

hey bro!

wah can see ur mod bike arr...hahaha...tomorrow rite ur nxt bookin? relax bro, slow n steady wins da race..

 

[J73]

any idea wat's the horse power n top speed??

[wAnDeRiN_sPiRiTz]

According to Fast bike:

- SUzuki retained da same peak horsepower of 97bhp

- an incrase in forque frm 91Nm to 108 Nm

- alsmost as smooth as Cb13

- wheelies available on demand

- adjustable seat height

- liquid cooled

 

Verdict:

+ Torque, better handling, fat fuel tank, comfort.

- Maybe too smooth for Bandit die-hard fans. Lack of gruffness (can be overcome be after market end cans.)

 

Final Score: 7/10

According to specs. max torque available only/merely at 3700rpm. That means U can ride this thing like a scooter. In only top gear, u can accelerate easily even from very low speed!

[wAnDeRiN_sPiRiTz]

r u sure?

dats wierd fer a 1000cc bike..or perhaps u got it wrong?

[rAjOaNa]

97 BHP sounds way to little...i think mus be a mix up with 650K7 model which i m waiting for...seems like might not be in demand here... how ever the 650 k5 n 6 was brought in by this shop along lavender st. b4 minerva motors.
