Great video. Enjoy your scotch
Good on ya mate. Us blokes and sheilas who have these bandits and need to replace the pump and filters thank you for taking the time to show us how to go about doing it. Cheers 👍
This video still comes handy to me...such a great walk through
Great instructional video! I'll be doing this myself now, so thank you!
Fantastic, thank you from me down under here in Australia. I too have a 2007, great bike (bullet proof).
Hello Paul verry Nice wat you have done with your bandit , I have a question : For those 3 inline fuses how Much amps are they ? Thx in afvangen Greetings from Holland!
Thanks for watching. I believe they were 10amps for each line. You can of course put what ever you wish. Those fuses came w the unit. I also think the main one, was 30amp. Again its what came with it. Obviously overkill.
Nice job!!
very useful video. replaced the pump within a half an hour because of the video. Bandit runs smooth again ever since. Used a replacement of Quantum Fuel Systems.
Thank you so much for posting this!
is this an issue on all 1250 models
How tall are you? The bike looks huge next to you
Hi I have no diagnostics plug on my 2007 suzuki 650 bandit S and just wondering what wires I should be connecting the gear indicator into?? Any help in the right direction would be great... thanks
Hi David.. Sorry, I sold that bike a couple of years ago. I would suggest is search for HealTech. You should be able to find the documentation on their website. Good luck!
This was exactly what I need. Now I need to go to the store and grab some whiskey. Thank you.
Nice video! Seems to be the only real problem of this bike! Rest is solide!
Hi Paul, excellent video. Could you let me know where can I get those cutting plans?
Thank you for sharing this. Going to get materials and make one tomorrow. Right now I just hardwired my usb with an inline switch on the plus side. The relay is a nice touch.
please can a Bad fuel pump cause F1 Red lihght error on my suzuki bandit 1250cc
This what I like more action and less talking
Each one teach one thanks
it is not necessary to put silicone on the gaskets to invite oil liquids
It's pronounced more like 'Arrandle', Stress is on the 'ar'. Or Brits will be upset!
Hi Paul, good video, I've had a couple B1200s in the past, recently acquired and 07 1250s, great bike, nice overall refinement from the older 1200, however, the seat is AWFUL....any recommendations..? thanks, Paul.
Hi Paul. I did change the seat but I'll be darned if I can remember what I put on it. I sold that bike a few years ago. I did put a Sargent mustang seat on a Honda VTX I have and it has worked well for me. Thx and good luck!
Thanks so much 👍🏻
Paul, thank you for your service. I am hoping to see your finished model. The USCGC Arundel is not a forgotten ship. It was the first ship built for the Coast Guard with ice-breaking in its design. It is a living piece of history. It is now the Erika Kobasic. I watched the Erika Kobasic break ice this weekend in concert with the USCG and the Canadian CG. The lady still knows how to dance. And she dances very well.
jdholland2009, Thank you! I am also hoping to see my model finished! LOL.. It's not dead. I have just had so many failures on it couple with numerous other household projects etc.. It went from brass, to a steel build, to a wood build. I have 3 hulls. Now I think I am going back to steel one. I have quite a bit of video showing my failures that I need to edit. I have been 'aggressively getting ready' to do that for some time. Realizing my shortcomings in metal work, I purchased a TIG welder last year. I need to figure out how to use it without embarrassing myself on video. Re the Erikal Kobasic, thanks for sharing! I would have loved to have seen it. I had actually tracked her down while looking for plans but the marine contracting company never responded to my emails. I did get a chance to see her in person a couple of summers ago, albeit from afar. I was on a motorcycle trip, returning home and routed myself through Escanaba, MI. Thanks again and stay well - Paul
hooo,great job,thank you so much for the tutorial really appreciate!
Ho..very great job,good info help a lot thanks!
Paul, I know its been awhile since you've talked about this. But I'm interested in some old navy plans from the nat'l archives. Any details on the process of ordering what you wanted? Rough costs?
There are lot of National archives. Lots of searching on the internet. Search for sister ship etc. They will help and can probably narrow down location etc.. but will not do personal searches. You either have to go in person or hire someone. On their (national archives) website they list some people who will do the on the ground work. Do your home work otherwise you will pay someone to start at the beginning. I paid a guy $250. It took.2 or 3 trips. But he was working for other clients at the same time. The National Archives is free. You could go yourself for free.
4:00 Someone's grown a third arm. Can this be done as one person or safer to invite a mate around for a hour or so?
When we going riding?? These Harleys around here can't keep up!! LoL!
LOL You obviously haven't seen me ride!
Thank you. You are so very intelligent! It's like you thought how to make it better and then you did! You did with excellent quality products, cost efficient and modern. I have a 2005 Suzuki Bandit 1200s. I LOVE mine too!!
Wow, thank you! The bandits are great bikes. Be safe..
thanks, best vids
Thank you!
Buen tutorial ya que tengo mi Gs 450 una pregunta por que consume mas combustible ahora que se arreglo el motor ( bueno se cambio cigueñal metales y bielas
Unless you're leaking fuel into the crankcase, I would begin looking at the carb. Make sure no air leaks on the boots etc.. good luck!
@@ptstransky ok gracias comenzare a checar los carburadores saludos
An ambitious project given you’ve stated you’re not a metal worker. You have many cold soldered joints which will haunt you later. It’s unfortunate that you didn’t know about, or use, silver solder. With a little more heat you’d have bulletproof joints that are next to invisible. I hope you haven’t given up on the build given all the preliminary work you’ve done.
No, haven't given up. As a matter of fact I have built two additional hulls. One of steel and one of wood. I realized my metal work needed help. I tried boosting the heat on the brass solder using Map-gas, which worked. The problem I encountered was with the extra heat, other joints became de-soldered. I have video waiting to be edited. Its been waiting for a while :-). I also recently purchased a tig welder. So in short, brass or steel, I will figure it out. Thanks!
Be sure that the fuel screen in the tank is not plugged that fixed mine. I had about 17000 iced on at the time.
Where is the fuel screen? Is it inside the tank also?
I am always amazed at videos like this-the tools, the time required-I won't even ask if this is a kit.
Hello Paul, you might want to revise your mounting points to the top half of the crankcase as that is the starting point of reassembling the engine. That is, you place the crank, balancer and transmission shafts in the top half of the engine and then place the bottom half on and bolt things up. I'm in the planning stages of an engine stand and will make an adapter for the engine with an arm over the top of the crankcase to hold the engine in place when the crankcases are upside down. I hope your repairs went well.
Can't wait to see pt 5. You had mentioned that you had plenty to do. I take my hat off to you for taken this build on. This is no easy undertaking. Congratulations on do such a great job so far. Keep up the good work.
I dont mean to be so off topic but does anyone know a tool to get back into an Instagram account?? I somehow forgot my password. I would appreciate any help you can offer me
@Jayson Riley Instablaster ;)
@Isaiah Aydin i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and im trying it out now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Isaiah Aydin it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy! Thank you so much you saved my account :D
@Jayson Riley you are welcome xD
I learned a lot from just this video. Thank you for sharing
1/32 scale … got it
looking forward to part 5
Fantastic video! Thanks!
So after 5 years how has the pump held up?
I sold the bike a couple of years ago. It was fine then.
Did your bike just caught out and wouldn't start Got a 2008 Suzuki bandit 1250Tone over but will not start
Yes, just quit. Check the spark. If good, fuel is most likely culprit. You should hear fuel pump click on when ignition is turned on.
What are you torquing the heads to? I can’t find specs for that online
I'm a little late, but I had the same question. so for future wrenchers, IAW tech data, the single small bolt in the front is 8 lb/ft, and the 8 bolts on top are 29lb/ft. For fun, I'll also add the exhaust bolts are 8.5 lb/ft
It only needs a nice steam engine!
I followed this and after replacing the fuel pump an initial improvement was seen. For about 20km. After this my bike went to shit again. It was fucked (the fuel pump) so I am not complaining about the fix. However, my problem also involved the fuel pressure regulator as well so my problem wasn't fixed just by replacing the fuel pump. My bike is now running perfectly. After I rust clean my tank I'm going to get it dyno tuned. The Suzuki manual for the Bandit has a warning not to remove the fuel pressure regulator. Probably because they charge around $180 for a new one (which a mechanic would install in 5 minutes like I did) and I got one for $35 on Amazon Prime. Hope this helps any fellow Bandit riders. My bike is an Australian delivered 1250S K9. 72,000km.
Thanks for this im learning how to wrench on my bike (gs450L from 1980) and you really helped me out with this series!
Thank you for sharing!. Great vid.

Great Video! I have followed many of you modifications and added them to my Bandit 1250. I haven't seen any other Bandit 1250's in my area of Midland, MI so there isn't anyone around here for me to bounce ideas with about the bike!
