Master of all trades - that's the Bandit GSF650SA. small enough to be economical to buy and run; small enough - particulary with its adjustable seating - to suit a wide range of riders. big enough to be an effortless Monday to friday transport or be a fun bike for the weekend or a touring machine for the summer holidays. And now the Street Bandit goes one step further by combining the impressive ABS braking system with excellent weather protection and a rack with a 45-litre top box, all for the suggested on the road price of £4,665.
