'88 GSXR 1100 Good Stunt Bike?

Well, is an 88 GSXR 1100 w/ 40k miles a good first stunter? For 2100$?

Whoa you could make that work, but not for that price you could get a much newer bike for that $$$$$$!

Re: '88 GSXR 1100 Good Stunt Bike?

I know the price is high dog, but up here in Saskatchewan the price of bikes is way higher then the states. A 1995 CBR F3 or F4 goes for 6k man! I've only got 3k! I looked at the bikes on SL, but I have to pay like 500 shipping and then probly duty and customs and taxes, which means I can take the SL price and add a grand to it just to get it here.

Hmm, I see people from Ontario selling their **** for cheap all the time, hell, you can "move" to a state and park your bike up there...

come to the states and buy a bike

but id say an 88 is too old and 40k miles is just way too much.

Re: '88 GSXR 1100 Good Stunt Bike?

I want something that I can ride everyday, and pimp some wheelies and endo's on. I'm not worried about doing no handers, not yet anyways (I've never done a good motorcycle wheelie yet), and I'm not ready for circles.

I'd like to put a 12 bar on it and do some scrapin, pull some highchair endo's and highchair wheelies, maybe do a lil skitchin, and a christ or two,

Would It be ok as a cruising bike AND a beginner stunter? I think it wouldn't be too bad.

I second that..... extremely heavy bike. You can stunt anything but that would be a tough one to learn one

whoa now turbo, you may wanna take it slow and not even worry about those things yet if your just a beginner... start small with 1st gear wheelies and get those down and eventually work ur way up.. or else you're probably gunna get hurt, and that aint good
