Liquid-Cooled engine would be a good performance boost, but that probably means price increase.. :dunno:
Overall one of the best parts about this bike is the economical aspect, but hopefully it won't cost too much more.

I agree.  At least there may be another naked option

Bandit 1000...z1000 you think there sound be a similarity?  I hope so.  I'd be just about ready to trade my Z by then  :mrgreen:

So far its only rumor. Logic would say they'd use the liquid cooled gixxer motor as was the origins of the existing bandit. 1000cc would be a step down though-the bandit riders like their 1200cc air-cooled motors. Wouldnt a 'busa motor be better at 1300cc for a bandit? even though it's also water-cooled.
