I had a 2000 Bandit 600. At the time I thought it was the dog's danglie doodads. However, after owning many other bikes and now after having a Hornet I think they are quite slow and lardy. This is only in comparison though. As a commuter they are okay but not exactly the most exciting bike in the world. You could do worse but you could also do much better. A naked Hornet would give you many more grins.
