Most of their motors are good but can cost cut in other areas such as suspension if in direct competition with a different manufacturer so they come in cheaper on the showroom floor in comparison. Some of the bandit models the rear shock needs rebuild after 30 thou km

Value for money the DR series. The early XL/XR motors ran their camshafts straight in the head ( no bearings) and caused much spending of beer money. The old Pro Link seemed plusher than the Suzuki Full Floater I thought. All water under the bridge now though.
