My new ride
 

Just don't have time for the streets anymore. So I decided to find a cheap track only bike. Here is the listing I found.

1998 Suzuki GSXR600
Yoshimura RS-3 Full exhaust system
DynoJet kit installed. Runs GREAT on 93 octane pump-gas, but I understand it probably was run on U4 race-gas in the past.
K&N Air Filter
Battery replaced in 2007.
NRC Case Covers
Frame sliders
Penske Twin-Clicker Rear Shock
Professionally reworked stock internals in front fork in ’05 with fresh fluid
Braided front brake lines
Fresh front brake fluid, May-08
EBC HH Brake pads all around (new, May-08)
EBC ProLite front rotors
Dunlop Sportmax Qualifier DOT tires. Probably needs a new rear tire before it's taken back to the track. Front tire has 1 Barber trackday on it.
Cheetah Bodywork (bodywork is real rough, several repairs, paint’s not that good, but workable – hey, it’s a track-bike!)
Race fairing stay.
ProTek Rear-sets
45 & 47 tooth rear sprockets (47 is currently mounted and perfect for Tally and Barber)
Big box of spares (not even sure what’s in there, but for sure have complete carb set, case covers, front brake master cylinder, dyno-jet additional jets)
Spare lower fairing
Spare Superbike tail (has a small crack in it, but usable or repairable)
Extra rear rim with cush drive (tiny bend in lip, but runs true and balances with no issues)
Original complete stock exhaust system in excellent condition.
Drilled for safety wire all-around. Oil drain, filter, and filler, plus front brakes are currently wired.
Flushed coolant and replaced with WaterWetter in Nov-2007.
Front and Rear-stand set goes with it, if you want them.

Picked it up last Saturday. Here is a short vid

for the second time, sweet :dthumb:

Awesome. But how can you say you dont have time for the street. The track takes more time than just commuting or crusing the neighborhood. Not knocking...but hey.


Great pick up. Have fun.

I don't have much time for street... around here.. it takes just as long (or longer) to get to any decent roads as it does to get to a track. I'd rather trailer out the night before, get a good nights sleep in the car, and ride as hard as i want to without having to worry about debris, cars, horse poop, cops, etc

For the first time, sweet wind chimes. :D

Thanks. Let me clarify. I used to ride a lot of afternoons. I don't have time for that anymore. Plus, I can schedule the track days at the first of the year around my daughter's schedule. PLUS, I would just rather have 5-6 weekends of intense MC fun than to just get a couple of hours on the road every now and then.

i hear ya man. Nice purchase.

i like it, i better see you at some STT days this year.

Nice pickup buddy. I bet you got that thing for a song. Good deals on track bikes are very easy to find.

I likes it! Looks and sounds clean and ready to play! Don't think the dog cares much for it though. Are you able to slide any on that seat?

I think I'll be at a couple. I've been coordinating my schedule. It looks like I will be at one Nashville day and 5-6 Tally days. Some of the Tally days will be with Elite

You are correct

Seat is actually smooth. That is some cheap ass foam shop floor material :lol:

I just now watched the vid. I suggest keeping the '138'. :lol: And the dog clearly does not approve.

Dog hates it, you love it.

Good pick up!

And comonboys says you still can't have your boots back :lol:

Mind me asking how much?
