1988 Suzi GSX-R400 Import <not sure of exact code!!

[FingerZ!]

Well after riding this bike home round the M25 and then some country lanes even with a slight running problem it took me about an hour of riding to begin to feel extremely confident with the handling of this bike.

Has plenty of power altho i am yet to balance the carbs to unleash full potential - fits you like a glove as long as you arent over 5'10" lol!

you feel a part of the bike and feel very confident with the riding position that you adopt on the machine - a truly wicked ride! :)

I know what model it is! Its a Slingshot! :lol: Or is it?? :? :roll:

[Biker Dude]

if i remember right, SLINGSHOT has sum reference to the swing arm on the Gsxr's... could be wrong tho

[Tark]

I dont know! Just seen it on some GSXR's that looked like Tims! :oops:

[cshan99]

Looking at the pics I think its the same model as mine, a GSXR 400K (Slingshot is on mine as well) 8)

[Tark]

It might of even been tims that i read Slingshot on at Snett!! :lol:

[Biker Dude]

i've been offerd one of these by a friend but it has had the conrod smash through the engine.it only happened cos he had another mate put a stage 3 tunning kit on it and never set it up properly!

i had a go with this on it and {EB} me it sounded lovely the throughtyness of the carbs induction kit suckin through the K&N's,and the power was sweet! i always told him i would love to see it set up prop then feel the power of it.

think the only way i will see this now is if i take it off him and sort it out myself! :)

[Tark]

Before you take it off his hands check how much it will cost to fix! :wink:

i've seen one engine for sale for £350. from a shop!
Still looking around though cos of the price.
i think i may just go to his and strip it down n find out wot parts im gonna def need.(then again my garage is warmer n i can stay and work all through the night if i want)
just think it will be a nice winter project,saying that i would have it all done in a few wk's. Thats basically to make it up to my kind of standard for a bike.

[Tark]

Would a GSXR 600 engine fit in the frame? :twisted:

[wowzer]

Not to sure i had thought about that but the next thing will prob be wings n stuff as im going from a 125 to ? :lol:
