Description

Additional photos are available here for your perusal.

While the GSX-R750 debuted in 1985 for most countries, the US first got it and the bigger brother 1100 in 1986.

It was an instant classic – an aluminum box frame housed a 128 horsepower oil-cooled engine, and it looked the part thanks to the full bodywork. The dry weight was 433 pounds, an impressively low number for the time.

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.”

This example is VIN: GU74A103284. It came to Iconic as an import from Japan.

The odometer shows 28,239 kilometers (17,546 miles).

Maintenance:
In preparation for the listing, we cleaned and synced the carbs and replaced the battery, the flasher relay, the fuel filter, the air filter, the clutch cable, and the chain. We also flushed the brake fluid and the clutch fluid and installed new Bridgestone Battlax BT018 tires with date codes of 2119 and 2219.
