Hey all, okay so I've been on here a ton for my katana, but now I have a question about a Bandit, I was told they have the same or similar engines and I trust you guys more than signing up for a bandit forum page to ask one question.
I'm looking at buying a 2001 bandit and he says that it idles but wont run smooth and has some issues there. I have the gauges and can sync carbs, so that could fix the whole issue but how hard is it to do on a bandit. The only carbs I ever synced were a 1980 kawasaki kz 440. Is it different with a newer bike? You just hook up the vacuum hoses and adjust the fuel air mixture ratio?
Long story short, I sold my 95 600 katana for $2000 and want to get this 2001 600 bandit for $1800 and see if I can fix it for under $200. Then I essentially upgraded bikes for free! =D
