I've got a big box of parts for it. I still need to have a sort through it and see what I am missing

Hopefully I will get it fired up this week (the battery is on charge right now)

I am very tempted to buy the original front fairings from ebay. without them the tank looks very weird as it has huge gaps all the way around.

Does anyone know if a different rear shock that will fit this? It's a bit too low for me at the moment

I think B12, RF600/900 and teapot 750 shocks would fit. GSXR Slingshot and early watercooled (pre SRAD) may fit.

Make sure its an eye one end and clevis the other.

Anybody got ideas for the paint scheme, headlight or other silly mods?

Well the price was right.

[Quornholio]

It's cost nothing, don't complain. Just change that crap nose fairing (I had one on an LC years ago).

`get on www.katriders.com its an american forum but they know a fair bit about upgrading them.

gsxr forks wise if you want USDs you need the 91-92 gsxr750, no other gsxr usd front end fits.

98 onwards gsxf rear shock fits i think, also bandit 12 fits but jacks it massivley and needs new dogbones, r6 shock is pretty much direct swap.

More details on katriders.com


Not a bad bike for free, im riding a 95 600 at the moment, they are good solid bikes.

Cheers
John

Hey, I'm not knocking it.

It's a bit like happening to be attracted to incredibly unappealing girls...you'll be able to pick one up much more cheaply than the more desirable models whilst ultimately they still go well and you don't have to look at it when you're riding it anyway
