the title says it all broke the frame on my zx6r and found a real good deal on a gsxr wonder what problems i might run into

Same! they are good stoppie bikes but hard to control power when trying to slow it down. Good for street and HWY.

the bike is a full streetfighter cage,12bar, dirtbars is it worth trying to get

eazenutz33 · 10-09-2008, 11:47 AM

no gix is worth getting IMO..........step up to a 636, F4i, or 600RR

vegasrider2005 · 10-09-2008, 11:50 AM

gixxers are fine.plenty of parts.just run some extra oil and do the pair mod

Gixxers are great stunt bikes. Steer away from the hate.

strong subframe,fuel injected,lots of parts available....now the bad...garbage forks,garbage brakes,twitchy throttle for slow shit,heavy,needs oil pickup mod...i learned on that bike and it lasted me so i wouldnt say its on my top 3 bikes but its definately stuntable...keep in mind you will get better faster on an f4i or 636 or nwer gixxer...just my

You suck at leaving feedback YSRRider

skillz · 10-09-2008, 08:40 PM

they are ok the motors are strong , just add extra oil, if its a 600 get a set of inverted forks , subframe ties are a must

$$$$DINO$$$$ · 10-09-2008, 08:43 PM

cant tell you i only owned one bike..but i like it

skillz · 10-09-2008, 08:43 PM

the frame will crack . there are cut outs on the inside of the frame which permit the valve cover to be removed without dropping the engine . if you correct this with some plating you will increase the life of the frame.

kirny · 10-09-2008, 09:08 PM

i had an 02 750 subrame cracked took a piece of steel from subfram mounts to the rear pegs ghetto but worked great it was f***ing solid afta that

xRYNOx · 10-09-2008, 10:11 PM

04-05 600 and 750 you can put a 03 04 gix 1000 sub for added strength. i would try to get a 04 05 600 if you go with a gixxer
