30k miles. Bike located in Gainesville, FL
Has Bridgestone BT090 tires. Only used for 1 track day.

Bike has:
new fuel lines, filter, and on/off valve instead of the problematic factory petcock.
Front springs upgraded (for 175 lb rider)
Vance and Hines Exhaust
Daytona handlebars
KnN Lunchbox intake
Rejetted properly for intake + exhaust

Previous owner tried to do a paint job and because of that the bike doesn't look that good. He also painted frame and engine black. I don't like it but does not effect performance in any way.


Included:
Included is new front and rear brake master cylinder (old ones are fine, but spares)
extra front pads (offshore manufacturer that supplies Hawk pads)
New choke cable
Stock front springs and stock spacers for springs
Center stand (I took it off)
Extra bulbs for tail lights

Issues:
- Paint is peeling off on the tank.
- Tach needle broken. It still works but the needle is a short stub.
- Choke cable not installed. I start up the bike with my thumb on the choke tab on the engine. It was a track only bike, so it was never a big issue for me. New choke cable included
- Right side mirror broken. Girlfriend undid the bolts in a bad order and it snapped the attachment.
- I've never dropped this bike, but P.O. obviously have; dings on the headlight housing.
- I have a wiring issue I'm trying to fix: tail light (Brake and running light) does not work. Might be as simple as a ground issue or old bulbs, but might be more. I'm going to try and get it fixed before I sell it, but if you take it off my hands I'll sell it for cheaper.

The bike has clean title and its registration was kept current!


$1100 firm, or first offer above that for the bike

I may be selling some parts and riding gear on a separate thread.

Reason for selling: Got tired of driving GF's car all the time, and keeping a track only bike seemed pretentious. So I bought a car I can drive and autocross. Sad but have to get rid of the bike!

haven't been home in a while, here are some pics of me on the bike (headlight, side stand, mirrors, turn signals are detached for track day)

I think I have seen that bike. I would buy it but I just put mine in the shop to do a front end swap.

but if you want to repaint it, let me know, I have some friends that could do it up for you for low cost, bike or car.

Thanks for the heads up, I will let you know if I decide to paint.
I was at jennings once earlier this year. I had a lot of fun; my first track day. I think the GS is a great machine to learn on. I was even passing other novice group people in the esses, and sometimes the sweepers. Must be BT090s vs whatever stock tire the 600's came with  :)

Still for sale. Rode it the other day, works just as well.
