Please Note: The seller states that he has fogged the bike for storage and there are no known mechanical issues. As such, there is no cold start video though he has provided a walkaround video in which he makes a guarantee regarding the running condition:
While the GSX-R750 debuted in 1985 for most countries, the US first got it and the bigger brother 1100 in 1986. The 1100 was bigger and stronger with a 1052cc, four-cylinder, oil-cooled, four-stroke in-line motor housed in a lightweight aluminum frame.
This meant the new full fairing icon was capable of 128bhp at 8,500 rpm and 70 ft-lbs at 8,000 rpm. At 434 pounds dry, the 1100 was surprisingly light upon release. It also became the first road bike to have a cartridge fork setup and electronically activated suspension.
As Bennetts found in its review, “On the open road it was astonishing. Fast and torquey like nothing else I’d ridden, but nimble too, feeling like what I imagined a proper race bike would as it flicked from left to right on the smallest of rider inputs.”
Manufactured in April of 1986, this example is VIN: JS1GU74A4G2103302. The seller acquired it four years ago from a Bring a Trailer auction.
During his ownership, he has covered 1 mile. The odometer shows 13,789 miles.
