    Is your front brake dragging? Sometimes the caliper pistons will drag and it will feel like you have no power

Suzuki bandit problems

Sounds like your clutch is slipping. Make sure your clutch lever has free play of at least a 1/2 inch. Otherwise it is time for a new clutch. Although at 15000 mi it should not need one yet.

Clutch replacement on 98 suzuki 1200 bandit

all you do is drain the oil before removing the right hand engine casing the bigger one of the two then undo all the little bolts holding the small springs in place then rmove the face plate and take out the clutch plates and replace with new ones remember to put the new ones in the same order the old ones came out there should always be a friction plate between clutch plates once done put casing back and refill with new oil
hope this helps

Gsf 400 bandit clutch needs replacing how do i do it?

Real easy, just drain oil, take off side case and remove the bolts.
Take it off as an assembly.
Make sure clutch plates and friction plates are positioned correctly.

Are you sure you need to replace the clutch?
I assume it merely needs a minor adjustment.
