Just added this lovely old girl to my stable. I need at 15yr old bike at all times in order to qualify for the Footman James Classic Bike policy. This then also covers my modern bikes and all for a reasonable premium. So when I heard that this one was avail I bought it over the phone. I know the owner and his standards of micro analism on keeping things clean. We did the deal for me to have it totally standard as I will mainly use it for "Polishers Events" at VJMC etc. It is a bike known to PH as it was unearthed form long term storage by Podman who then sold it to 3DP and now back to me.

It turned on to 4720 miles as I rolled into my driveway this morning. 1999 Suzuki GSX-R 750 X registered in 2000.



Congrats, tis a lovely thing to ride and to behold.

I hope to see it at a classic event next year, enjoy.

Myself and Prolapse fitted my tow bar today.

Prolapse kindly offer a hand, it took 7 hours and the electrics aren't done yet.

In hindsight it would take a few to do again now we know where all the fixings are.

600 SRAD with a K series rear seat unit..in race trim..."whats the message?"...
Certainly not that I'm going racing as I'm ste. Really enjoyed my first go on track on loons old R1 but feel I need to go back to basics and get something more tame to learn on.

Not got it yet but as long as it's as described when I go I will be bringing it home. We shall see.
Looks like a nice wee starter bike for the track, I fancied one of these for the track. How much did you pay if you don't mind me asking
Agreed on £750 with a set of wheels with wets too. It's got 10k on the clock but it's probably had the speedo drive unplugged for years! But at that money I'm not arsed. Has V5 and says the vin numbers intact untouched. Dynojetted carbs and just serviced can't really go wrong.
Nice little buy ( if you do )

Welcome to the chav side biggrin

If it wasn't for the corner of a Mitsubishi Shogun on the left of the photo, you'd think we'd ridden our bikes into a misty day in the 1880s.

The wker only bought it because I was kicking his arse when we were both on the 125's.
