Just found your channel... Massive Suzuki Bandit fan over here!!! I did the same thing a few years back, found a Bandit-o for cheap and fixed her up. Absolute beast of a bike. I've have to catch up on your videos and see what you've done! So awesome to see someone else giving these bikes some love :D They are painless to work on.
Glad you found the channel! Been loving your content and of course your apocalyptic Bandit! Major props for hustling like you do!
@@BrickHouseBuilds Thank you dude! Appreciate the kind words!
Very Nice! I have been riding a '97 1200S for almost 10 years now and I have never been disappointed. The 2005 with the blue/white are drop dead gorgeous in my book. I have a Yosh slip on, Holeshot jet kit, and K&N. Very quick wheelie machine.
Oh man i can't wait! Unfortunately this thing is on hold until the dmv opens up so I can continue the title process
Great deal man, and nice bike. I had an '05 Bandit 1200S that I bought new, and put about 12k miles on it before selling it. That bike had a massive amount of mid-range torque and was really fun to ride. But man, it seemed like every time you twisted the throttle hard it would launch you up to a 100mph in no time. I ended up getting a huge ticket and decided to go back to more tame motorcycles like my old Sportster and CX500, both of which I still have and ride.
You definitely have to have self control as likenyou said it was just too easy to break triple digits. I like to cruise at like 95 lol. I definitely miss this bike like my FZ1 but it seems I'm cursed when it comes to keeping a 1000cc sport tourer.
That is a steal! You'll get it running.
Oh man Im really itching to work on it but I just want to be smart and make sure the title gets squared away before anything else
Greetings from South Australia, I hope it all works out. Absolutely love my 2010 1250s, top bikes!
Funny thing, it is going away today actually:( Definitely watch the last video I posted on it to skip ahead. Major headache
@@BrickHouseBuilds oh bugga! Definitely will..
Lol, must be that time of year, I picked up a 91 GSXR 750 the other day in a similar situation. What do you plan to do if not parts? Clean title frame or risk it for the biscuit when you ride? Lol
Im starting a title process now as I very much want to ride it this season. Having a title will increase the bikes value sp I can profit on it whenever I go to sell it.
A awesome pickup. A still.
It was a great bike
What's the title process like there? Here in Virginia filing for title for an abandoned vehicle costs $25 and takes about 2 months. Then you pay the usual $$ for title, tax and tags. Awesome score by the way!
Well Ive got titles in different ways here already but this time im going to try for a bonded title. Not overly complicated but still not simple. Havent done it before so its a learning process. I do not know who had the title so filing for a lost one wont work.
#winning man!
That's sweet deal. Probably commuter. Bike. I just brought 01 1200 bandit motor carbs harness hand controls pipe can 200.00 29,000 miles put it in 1994 GSXR 750. Frame. Put 90 miles on so far.
That's a cool swap! I'd love to do something similar with an older GS and build a retro race inspired bike
@@BrickHouseBuilds I just bought 2001 bandit 1200 s with 2033 miles. On it at a car dealer org owner traded it in. Dealer asking 3900 so I put 500 down thinking my irs check would cover it. Fu King irs put a hold our taxes. So I'm making 700 month till it's paid in May. So. I showed my brother. Few weeks later mails me said he bought R 1. Fucker. So now I got buy a turbo for GSXR 750 with 1200 motor in it. Did you get yours running.?
@@brianjacobsen5762 This video was just the 1st in a full series. You can click it and see the next videos of making it run and the eventual outcome for the project
@@BrickHouseBuilds it's been so long the original post popped up I forgot all about it I'll check it out thank just road the GSXR to work this morning. Give me a email
Send you a pic the The hillbilly ebay bandit 1200 A/F Thanks.
Would not want a Bandit S, unless it was 750,1200, 1250. Think 1250 GT, might be an absolute JOY. Professor B.T.E OUT, BANDIT TORQUE ENJOYMENT.
How do you get it registered?
Well the rest of the videos go over how I attempted to do that. I was not able to in the end which the last video in the playlist goes over in detail.
How do you title these bikes that don't come with a title?
I have gone a couple routes on more vintage bikes in the past but on this bike I am going for a bonded title. I was expecting to have a title by now but the covid stuff shut down the dmvs causing me to be in a holding pattern. Ill link a friends channel s09engineering where he goes in depth on getting a bonded title in his state.

Brick House Builds thanks for the response dude. Looking for a cheap bike rn, but so many of them have no title! Subscribed and looking forward to seeing more content!
I love that bike already
I miss it a bunch. Phenomenal bike!
I wish bikes were that cheap here in Australia…you barely buy a bicycle here with that money…😢
We are definitely fortunate here with how plentiful they are
Super great bike, I love bandits. I currently have a 2011 GSX1250FA which is a fully faired bandit 1250. Google Dale Walker he tunes and sells parts for all these bandits . Petcocks were known weakness
Ill check both of those out! Im dying to move forward on this bike but the rona' has all the dmvs closed so I can't move forward on the title process yet.
THIS IS rare 1200SZ model. Check frame sticker on right side.
Bike is long gone as of now. Not in my possession anymore
Theres a '05 with 12470 miles near me, but add a zero to your price, clean title and it runs....hmmm, I just bought a '02 XR400 non running, carb kit and a couple hours of cleaning BBURRRRRPPPPP tactic....
XR400 is a dream bike of mine!
Good luck getting legal issues taken care of just bought a 2001 for $3.3k. Bike doesn't like going slow lol
I am working on an update video actually on this bike. Unfortunately I hit a fatal snag in the process that will be explained.
I have 2001 too. No it doesn't like going slow lol
Sweet.. Put in some work, and keep her original..
It already has a slip on and a filter so my job is done! I will do some flush mount turn signals but it wont need anything beyond that. I just want to ride it!
@@BrickHouseBuilds So happy to hear that👏 So many old Bandit's get chopped up.. A shame if you ask me.. I own a 1200 Mk1, and it never let me down.. Congrats, treat her well, and welcome to The Bandit Family👍
How tall you Man
Like 5'8"
Here all you have to have is a bill of sale.
Not as simple here
I picked up a 2003 with 29k for 600 lol
Sounds like another good deal
It ran a bit choppy
Started right up after a carb clean
I paid 8. These people talking about 3k with no title got too much stimulus money and CZcams endorsement
@@stevenphillips6216 fr... ANY no title bike is make 1500 if that. Fuck, idk if id pay 1k for no title. You never know if that shits hot or not next thing u know u getting chased by fed
O....no title?!.....ok that changes things.....ill haul it off for ya for 50.00...
the yoshi muffler cost over 500 bucks 😂
Definitely!
good thing is a 500 buck muffler means a previous owner had $$$. so probably main dealer servicing.
in uk. wish i,d bought one. got a 1250 bandit. valve adjustment is a bastard cams out bucket shim .abs brakes new lines 350 $$ bastard. genuine suzuki ignition coils $ 160 each. × 4 😂. oh well.
Anything too good to be through, often is.
I buy many bikes cheaper than this
@@BrickHouseBuilds It's not my experience, lucky you.
why not just buy a new petcock?How much do you save 10 dollars? No offence meant
I prefer oem parts where possible and there was no reason to throw the old one away for a simple fix. Why buy a non running bike when I could just buy a new one...
Give ya 250.00 for it...
Are you saying that from my perspective to whom I bought it from or to me?
the owner just knew nothing about it :) LOL if there is not title, OF COURSE he would know nothing about it.
Riiiiiight
To much talking mate, More doing please.
Talking is required to give the story and inform people what i am doing
Nobody wants those bike because of the inherent motor rattle they make at idle....big turn off....a chick looks over at yer bike at a light only too hear the motor rattling like crazy.....lol
I've never heard of that as a turn off for these. Clutch rattle is common in more than a few bikes and most of the time proper sync can reduce it. Wont stop me from wanting one!
Sound stolen.
Definitely check out the rest of the playlist on the bike. I explain all that went down but no, not stolen
For 3.3k it doesn't sound stolen. What a jackass comment to make
Dude I would get it running then worry about the title. You kinda repeated yourself through this whole video. So not interesting!
Id keep watching the series
