Hey guys, haven't posted in a week or two, just wanted to update everybody! I bought a new bike! It's a 1994 GSXR-750w, with 20K Miles. Looks GREAT for a 94! Not a spot of rust, nor frame damage. STRONG engine, NEEDS A PAINT JOB! Some of the plastics are also missing... BUT I got a GREAT DEAL at only 800 bucks!!! I will keep you guys posted on this project, and post pics/videos of the tear-down and re-assemble. Here is a couple of Pics of the way it sits, this thing GLIDES through the air!!! VERY HAPPY!

I hear ya Novaraptor! This bike I think has Plenty of power for what I want. I do love it, and I can't believe how well it runs for 800 bucks! Got my headlights working BTW! Somebody that owned it before me, had all kinds of screwed up wiring! I studied the schematic, and found the issues, Really happy about that, so I can keep the stock HI/LOW switch! UNFORTUNATELY, I cracked the lens, testing. I dropped it.... But the wiring works! So I'm still happy! This way, I can either get a new lens, or Street fighter Assembly, and the wiring will be ready to go!
NOW, I have noticed the Radiator Fan, is NOT coming on... even after the bike warms up, if its not moving, it will start to get hot, thats when the FAN, SHOULD, kick on, But since it's not, I am thinking either Temp Sensor(Unlikely cause the gauge works...) OR could be another hack job on the wiring....

I kicked my self in the arse last year about this time. One of the banks had a repo crotch rocket with broken plastic. I would have stripped all the plastic so it did not look so much rocket. Until you are well over the speed limit the plastic does nothing but make for eye candy. I should have bid on that bike. The first time they advertised it they didn't even get a bid.

I cleaned your pic up a little Mikey, those attachments ruin a good pic sometimes. I rode one of those when I borrowed it from a friend in Talladega. Be careful buddy, that is a true crotch rocket.!
