Would something like that be worth an engine swap?

Not really. The Bandit 600 was never the cult favorite that the SV650 was, and aside from the engine/carb issues it’s in outstanding condition. It basically sat for 20 years indoors. Never properly stored either.

I suspect the issue is that the camshafts on the left side are all fucked up, causing valve issues. Regardless, our threshold for when trying to get a bike running is advantageous is fairly low.
