I'm looking for a good GSX-1200. Pretty specific ask, but if anyone knows someone who's selling one, let me know.

I would also consider a 750 for the right price.

Cheers.

Not exactly what you're looking for. But there's sure to be a bit of fun, both in the garage & on the road. And all for chump change.

10 years in storage and we don't even know if it turns over... I quite like those things though. A good all-rounder.
A couple of Viagra pills in the tank will fix those indicators. :msn-wink:

Still on the lookout. Looking specifically for the shape I used to have as I have unfinished business with that bike I want to complete.

There's a few of these old girls around, I'll probably just end up buying the one in the Waikato though.

Mind you I'd also consider an XJR1300/1200 for the right price.

GS1200ss might suit - same ride, different clothes to a degree.

'86 GSXR1100? Just like a GS1200 only better.

Nah, cool bike but not the look I'm after.

Really? You would rather have a poorly executed XR69 replica, than the genuine king of superbikes 1986 styles?

Yep.

Though I'm really after a GSX.

My house. Fuck, my wife just hit the roof about me selling one of my own bikes when I asked if she could remember what I paid for it, she's a keeper.
Pm me if you want pics, makes room for another.
