    Very clean for a GSXR :)

    the K5 is a legendary bike, and very light compared to the new fat 1000's

    Well picked the k5 up and could not believe the condition as it was out of the showroom,it had a lady owner and has done nothing not even seen water .heres some of the pics I took could not believe the guy I sold my k5 too 8 years ago still had the exhaust and pc3 I gave him with the bike.not able to get this exhaust now as it was the full blown race version I feel like a kid in the sweet shop.and ten years on this bike is still the fastest production bike on the planet image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg

    I'd love to try the K5-K6 just to see if it's all it's hyped up to be.

    I have to admit that I have been looking at them for the past couple of years, to see if I can find 1 in need of a little TLC for a winter project.

    Much more torque than the blade but the blade is smoother to handle IMO but some will have there own opinion,the thing is Colin they bring radge money even 10 years old but will be a good investment,I took it out last week and did not realise how quick they were when I had one 10 years ago,they just what to lift for fun absolutly mental bike

    Fantastic bike Graem and in such great condition. They are really fast and I love the sound they make. I have a lot of time for gixers and always regretted every one I sold.
