No. The Bandit is a GSF, this ones a GSX.
And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

Oh, my bad. I can't keep up with all the Ninjas and GSXrRRrRRrRrs these days! At any rate, that's what I think it is!

All I will say is that it is a VERY nice motorcycle, and looks bloody good with the Leovince muffler!

Well thank goodness that's cleared up then. I've been sweating bricks.

Candy Indy Blue it is. 19 litres fuel capacity and 1255cc of motive power.
It is a Suzuki GSX1250FA ST, sometimes known in some markets as a GSX1250SA.
It is not a Bandit. As well as the faired front end, the instrumentation, front suspension and radiator (size & number of fans) are all different to its more famous brother.
It is/was New Plymouth Motorcycles' demonstrator with about 1,000km on its clock.
I am greatly looking forward to meeting it personally and riding it.

Cool, best ride it back through Forgotten World Hi-way.

Popped into Wellington Motorcycles the other day and was very taken by what I think is the exact same thing. They had it parked by the front door, and on my way out I had to stare at it for a while.
Very nice. (And not a bad price compared to some of the other stuff around.... such as many mentioned in this "take a guess" thread.)
Measure once, cut twice. Practice makes perfect.

Nice!
I could've sworn Bandit's had a faired version, in fact I thought Princessbandit's one did. Argh I have no idea, it's a beautiful bike anyway!
I agree on the price part also. Certain other Japanese brands should seriously take note.
