Well, I just put a deposit down on a '87 GSX-R750 that's been streetfightered.  the only thing I don't like is the tail :icon_confused: and the headlight :icon_confused:

I'm looking for a modern (97+) R6, CBR, GSXR tail section
Doesn't have to be pretty and I'm willing to fix minor cracks etc....
Solo or 2up, don't care
Tell me what ya have and what ya want for it

Thanks ya'll :laugh:
( WOOHOO, I have a project!!!! )

It's not an odd WTB, it's a WTB from an odd person  :laugh: :laugh:

Are you sure that in your advanced years you're going to have time for a project bike.

Good to hear you've got it, now some pics.

Yeah,  I meant to take pics when I checked it out, but I forgot the camera.   I have to pick it up by the 14th.
I think I can fit in a project bike between not working and not working :laugh: :laugh:
I should be able to ride in 1-2 weeks but he doesn't want me working for a little while after that :mad:

Strap that thing on a palate and ship it to me.
PICS are GONE never TO return.

Yeah,
I'll be resorting to fleabay for quite a few things :icon_confused: :icon_confused:  I need new front rotors and that is one long and retarded story :icon_rolleyes:

OK OK....  The guy that 'made' it is a chopper guy and thought solid rotors would look cool :o :o  So he found some that fit :o :o  I think fleabay will be cheaper than my local salvage yard on those :thumb:

DUDE!!!!!  I just got qouted from geico for a brutale 910r with full coverage and $500 deductible------  1550 annually!!!  That is awesome!!! :thumb: :thumb:
Between Finance payments and insurance, I could own a 910r for just about $300 a month :icon_twisted: :icon_twisted: :icon_twisted:  I do believe I will be making that purchase a little later in the year :thumb:

OT:  I decided to go all rat bike/streetfighter on the Gix.  I picked up a decent looking taillight for $5 from the local bike shop.  And I just bought a front GSXR seat.  I'm going to just attach the seat to the subframe rails and bolt the taillight onto the end of it :thumb:
