If a 90's GSXR 750 has sat around for 4 years what will it need?

I can't remember what the weak point of the motor was, I'll ask me ol' mate. He's well versed in such things and might know how to keep them reliable.

Great thanks I intend to twist the tits off it as much as I am able. Perhaps I will live that dream of getting a knee down... Shit I best buy some leathers with pucks or it might not come back up again..

The key to not having shit go bang, is to create a new "redline" below manufacturers spec that fits your budget.
I supply a race bike to a hard charger, it has a dyna ignition with an adjustable limiter that can only be adjusted by me, with the seat off. It doesn't break expensive stuff.
If it's only a track day bike, who cares about the last 1000rpm.

That is a good idea. I don't care about the last 1000rpm I just care about learning to corner and having a few laughs with my mates. Race day is a few of us stay at mine the night before and talk shit, then we ride out and spend all day 'racing' each other and taking shit. So I'm only puddling about with no real experience and or expectations. So I'd rather save the bike. Did you say you supply something? Not sure on the hard charger comment?? How is the limiting achieved, I'm interested for sure.

I built one of the two which were run at the manfield WSB round when they came out. A genuine racekit rod broke a couple of meetings after that one.
When I built it, I was on the phone to Suzuki NZ every couple of days asking if they were sure it was strong enough....

The major weak point is rods I think. They use capscrews up from under - and the exposed threads on the rod shoulder are great places to start cracks.
The Yanks also wouldn't do cams for them as they found the valve train was weak.

From memory f-all of them came here - and few survive. Got to be worth keeping original IMO.

This one has no fearing, no front guard and is dereg. Still this explains why I cannot find parts for them if so few came here. Really I was after parts to convert my 7/11 1982 Katana based on Suzuki-Katana.com who did several with 1992 GSXR 750 front end and wheels. Intention being to beat it to death over just one season. I'd feel lame doing that to something worth saving but at 71,000kms and no reg I'd not feel to bad consigning it to parts to keep others alive and the bits I need to butcher my already Frankenstein 750 frame Katana (give it cannot be original anyway before I brought it).

Second reliable source to say they fly to bits. I've got a butchered one in my garage that someone tried to turn into a street fighter. I thought about racing it, till Bryce said they're shit.

Mmmm if it had the front end and you'd been willing to sell it I'd have brought that happily enough (and the wheels). I might have to find some grenade decals for it. Come up with some name that carries the ideas of explosive and slow (given I will be riding it). How about the 'walking stick grenade?'
