    PSA: Don't buy this bike [GSXR750 2013)

    The exact same bike previously:

    From the original owner:

    "He had no insurance so the bike was never inspected etc. Never got de-reged. So didn't need to re comply."

    If you check the rego, it is still registered as blue and white.

    Hello has this bike been dropped or crashed before? Cheers. icema (75 75 positive feedback) 5:47 pm, Mon 8 Jun

    Odd as he has also purchased a lot of gsxr750 L2 parts online on the same trader account.
    I have evolved as a KB member.Now nothing I say should be taken seriously.

    Bit dishonest when advertised as being rare factory pearl white when it was born blue. Might be well repaired but I would say hasn't had any real frame examination. I would be unhappy to buy it thinking it was original.

    May be a carefully worded ad? "It is a rare find in the factory Pearl white with black colour scheme which makes it stand out from the sea of blue/white Suzukis..."

    Seller doesn't actually say it was that colour when it left the factory, only that it stands out now!

    Does seem a bit suspect. Disappointing.

    Major crash damage should be disclosed so a purchaser can make an informed decision.

    Agree wholeheartedly, however to state explicitly that it is factory fresh and never been dropped is not far short of fraud.
    Keep on chooglin'

    Ha he'll think he's got heaps of interest as everyone on this thread will be a watcher on the Auction LMAO

    Certainly looks good in the pics thats for sure.
    On a Motorcycle you're penetrating distance, right along with the machine!! In a car you're just a spectator, the windshields like a TV!!

    'Life's Journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out! Shouting, ' Holy sh!t... What a Ride!! '
