The clutch slippage is the only safety feature on the bike :DDD Well done mate. Honestly it seems like it would have been just better to keep the 1200 bandit stock and ride it like it was meant to be ridden. Suzuki engineers would commit sepuku if they saw this abomination on 2 wheels.

I’ve got an early 600 Bandit, I fitted a GSX 750 cylinder and pistons (machined the tops of pistons to reduce compression as I refitted the 600 head) rejected carbs with a Dynajet kit, K&N air filter in air box, 750 exhaust. Makes a fair bit more power and torque which made clutch slip, so I added washers to preload clutch springs which cured the clutch slip

I had a couple of 1200 Bandits, the first one I dynotuned, more than enough grunt, especially for Euro touring. A mate put a turbo and open pipe on his, it would wheelie at 100mph and then spin the rear tyre if he opened the throttle. Absolute death trap anywhere except Santa Pod.

If them carbs came form a older GSXR that was used for drag racing on methanol and alot still are that would explain your odd shape needles as they flow massive amounts of fuel at wide open. Im saying this as Iv had people turn up with old racing parts thinking it just bolts on and work and have seen a few ex drag racing carbs in the past with wild jetting for methanol and the like.

You might be right about that. Pure ethanol requires 45-ish % more fuel with the same airmass. I experimented with e85 in a turbo car. Runs great if you get it right. So that would explain those huge holes in the emulsion tubes. I used to ride a Kawa Zephyr 1100 and i tuned it up a bit. K&N in the airbox and the airbox opened up on the underside. Dyno jet stage1 kit with 98 mainjets. Factory was 95 mainjets. I messed around with needle heights as well. On the dyno it made 98 wheel HP. Stock was 95 crank HP. It ran like a peach, pulled really clean from low in the rev range. I once managed 19km/L just gently cruising. Not bad IMO. This bike with the Bandit engine could do the exact same thing. They are VERY strong HARD pulling engines provided it is tuned correctly and synchroniced correctly.

I'm enjoying your videos, I've only just discovered your channel! I own a '96 1200 Bandit with an after market manifold (no flame trap) and disgustingly loud pipe. A friend of mine bought it new and I had it off of him two years later and got to work tuning it. K&N's and a Dynojet kit didn't make for a happy combo really (even after lots of time on a friend's dyno) so, I ended up re-fitting the airbox with a one piece K&N and tuning the inlet of the air box with various bellmouths until it ran right. The standard clutch soon shit itself and died and a Barnet clutch now has to cope with it all ( into the second set of plates now). It's a great machine and I'll never be able to part with it. Thanks for the entertaining vids!

Also noticed the over-reving on acceleration. I had a similar problem on a Ducari ST3 a while back. It was so bad it warped the clutch basket! After a lot of fiddling around, turned out the previous owner had changed the levers and the barrel in the clutch lever which has a small pin which pushes the master cylinder piston was mis-adjusted resulting in the clutch never fully engaging.

But it looks so cool. I won´t laugh at Your expressions after all the beans are present, now. I once had a bike in wich the swing bearing was rusted shut. No movement at all, it became a hardtail and I hated it so much. The back was jumpy like hell, a little pebble in a curve on my lane made the rear wheel skip and slip. It was bad. So: I´ll never ride a hardtail but they look so cool, too. Keep the sticky side down and the shiney side up, You´ll be allright. G`Day, Sir!

It is possible to get it jetted right but you need a LOT of experience and practice on CV carbs with K&N filters and new 'custom' emulsion tubes. (I haven't made emulsion tubes in years, eyesight ain't what it was) The only person who could do it 'easily' was Leon Moss (LEDAR RACE DEVELOPMENTS) but he died in a hang-glider accident many years ago (he did the carbs for Honda UK in the 80's when they used the DOHC CB750 bored to 998cc, better motor than the longer stroke CB900F) I haven't found the Dynojet kits particularly great but they can be made to work if you have the full kit with new needles. 1200 Bandit with earlier SACS GSX-750 intake cam plus any decent pipe will give reliable 141bhp at the wheel in a street bike, although I haven't done one for probably 25 years.

Mate, CV carbs with vacuum slides well never run perfectly or even well with pod filters. They need the airbox for smooth, consistent airflow without turbulence. Mikuni BDST carbs are something I know about. The best you could do with pods is use lengths of PVC pipes and put the pods on the end, to increase the intake tract length.

Read the unedited 'second' post before this one. I didn't watch video when I made comment. That taper on needle will only be rich when slides are fully lifted. Mains are too small, unless those 'pods' are very restrictive, which, looking at plugs seems to be case.. I ran 117 mains in a slightly modified 600 Katana with K&N filters, pulled way better than any 600 tourer should right from idle (had way too much experience with SACS motors, was at Suzuki dealers when they were launched, TWS, Bridgend) Did you pull fuel screws and check for damage? I always found either o-rings missing or they had been screwed in too tight with either broken off tips or enlarged hole. Things are a LOT easier nowadays with all the 'stuff' available I had to send someone to Fowlers with parts to match up because Honda screwed up on the RFVC head part numbers, the rocker arms are 'diagonally' the same and not intake exhaust like normal SOHC motors. The 'squared off' numbers/letters meand they are precision machined to closer tolerance than 'ordinary' Mikuni emulsion tube/jets, etc. I always check the emulsion tube cross drillings, almost all aftermarket and many new have 0.60mm hole when standard size (back in the day) was 0.8mm (I trained as precision machinist in mid 70's built some 'interesting' bikes over the years) Oh, how the hell are people getting away with exhaust systems like that? When I was doing MOT's it would never fly BTW, I had the very first official mobile repair service in Britain in the 80's (plenty of people did mobile servicing but no one had officially done it). I think the tax man really hated me. 😇

Not that it matters, but that bin lorry had a private plate on it. The number started E15..., which as you know is the old pre-2001 plate format, so the 15 doesn't indicate the year of registration.

Around 86, a friend asked me to ride his bike up to him when he moved to the far north of New Zealand, 380km on NZ roads (they were far from smooth back then, and about 100km was not even sealed🤣) On a rigid tailed monstrosity made out of a 71 500cc Triumph Daytona. The breakdowns, and there were many, were a godsend, it meant my arse and back got a short reprieve from the torture of riding it.🤣🤣

@@uhtred7860 oh cool I never heard from gixxer owners in new zealand before. yeah restrictions may cause them to use different jetting but US bikes use low octane fuel so quite a few different parts to euro bikes were on 97-99 here thats why id onlly use off the shelf parts designed for uk. I have heard factory pro are the best but I think guys over here that use them have to phone them to confirm spec and/or use dyno time I think if we want plug and play its either keiser oem or dynojet but I wouldnt recomend dynojet over here they arent very supportive on individual parts.

Great work, I've got a 1200 bandit mk2, and it's running a black widow full exhaust with stubby end can. The carbs have been rebuilt as standard, but it blows a lot of soot out the exhaust, do you think it would benefit from a dynojet kit? Thanks, liked and subbed 😊
