It is just marketing, it is just a catchy name. I have a Suzuki Bandit, but it isn't really a bandit

But Bandit isn't a category though is it & its a name not an indication of what its supposed to do

Of course he didn't ! However it is a fact that Moses burned up the desert in his Triumph.

Actualy somewhere in my long term memory i seem to recall Sir Ed taking a Taranaki built 'mountain goat' farm bike to Everest. Tank or something gave up & leaked so idea was canned at base camp or less. Someone will recall?. Was the very very first built by Johnny Callender. He was a realy nice guy was Johnny. Good days those of early MX up New Plymouth way. Bugger me, while i'm googling to find out how many L's in Callender etc here's the article. Everest bit will be there somewhere. I'll have a read tonight.
