“Smooth and powerful with masses of torque at low engine speeds makes riding effortless.
Came with full touring bags, ideal for day trips, weekenders or long distance touring.”
“Good all rounder, use it for commuting. Down side can be a bit thirsty if opened up and is not a light weight but a great ride handles really well and starts every time”
“Good cost effective alternative to the FJR1300 or VFR1200, but unlike the old bandit 1200 the liquid cooling has added too much weight, its a leviathan and if parked the wrong way on a hill two people required to pull it back up! The engine is a peach pulls hard and linear in any gear from low revs & a pillion makes little difference to the performance. Unfortunately the pillion leg room is a little tight for such big heavy "sporty" good looking bike. Traded in for a CBF1000FA almost the same performance, lighter, comfy, more pillion room, bigger service intervals and definitely more nimble in town, with a tall screen fitted to the adjustable mounts, it suits me far far better than the GSX 1250.... much more of an allrounder.”
