Tidy looking thing. Not my cuppa though, looks too much like a GSX-R without fairings, not a custom sex-beast. ;)

I like it though an 87 done 30000kms in that nick would see me restore it to oem,i reckon hes done a great job.

How else do you get a "more accurate air mixture" ?

Looks like it would be good for the engine. My starting bid would be $450.

Each to their own I guess.

That would mean replacing all the plastics that got broken when it was crashed, isn't that how most 'custom' bike projects start?

Why else would you bastardise a 25 year old low mileage sports bike....

Because you can? I'd be saying it's ex-crash done on a budget though, looks like spray can paint ;)

cause I can say it, I'll say it looks average as, looks like an old gsxr thats missing its fairings..

pity, needs the 1100 oil burner in it anyway.

Used to ride with a dude that had the mintest old blue/white gsxr1100, bored out to 12 or 1300, slicks hand cut, restored OEM.. fuckn cool, forgot his name, lived in chch - lanky fellow that rode with some pretty 2nd hand looking boots if I remember, bike was spotless tho.
