If straight-line speed is your priority, the Bandit 600S takes the lead. With 8 HP more than the SV-7GX, it offers a more spirited ride that will be noticeable on highway overtakes or track days. When it comes to agility, the SV-7GX has a clear advantage. Weighing in 7kg less than the Bandit 600S, it will feel significantly easier to handle in low-speed traffic, parking maneuvers, and twisty corners. Bottom Line: It's a close call. Choose the gsf600s-bandit if you prefer its specific styling and ergonomics, or the sv7gx if you want the alternative brand character.
