I got a pretty good deal on it, it also came with 2 helmets 2 joe rocket jackets, and 2 pairs of gloves. However driving it last night from J-ville kicked my ****. We left the guys house at 10pm and got home at 12 with winds gusting up to 40mph. Kinda sucked, but wasn't too bad.

Looks good, but you need to put the stock windshield and stock R1 sticker back on it.

I like the windshield, but I'll agree with you on the stickers. But more than likely I'm not going to do anything to it.

Someone took good care of it, it looks like it just rolled off the showroom floor. I had a gsx-r when i was sales at a bike dealership but i sold it i miss it every day.

It is in amazing condition. The previous owner bought it new back in '03 and has owned it ever since. He's in the Navy and has been over seas for a while and never had time for it. He's probably one of the most honest person that I've ever bought something from.

I don't think I could ever own a bike in ND that is, not a long enough ridding season, but I ride one once a summer and that seems to be enough, just a death trap lol

Nice bike, I second the thought of ditching the blue. I think a smoked windscreen would look better, and any other color blue for that "R1" decal would've looked ok.

Anyways, nice bike, be careful with it

My b, I read it wrong. I sold my truck and bought this. My s-10 wannabe will be getting towed from my parents house to my work to start messing with it to get it running again.
