If you cant find a 2T buy a Pre Sling or Slingshot

Looks like the early model GSXR's are already quite collectible especially the 750. The oil / air cooled bikes from 1985 to 1989 bikes mostly. Looking at the competition in '85/'86 they really were country miles ahead. And those motors of the 1100 have been pushed to 500HP by drag racers and what not while still being reliable !

To find one is SA that hasn't been pulled through someones ass and other the other side might be a challenge. Largely regarded as the best bike to take to a rally to set the fires alight at 1am 
They could certainly take a beating of note but they're not Brakpan proof.

After leaving school, and during my army days, I had a few CB750F's, a 900F Bol'Dor, a GSX 1100 and a Kawasaki 750 Ninja. I remember riding a GSXR750 Pre-Slingshot for the first time, and it made all my previous bikes seem obsolete. That bike was way ahead of its time.

Buff, do you remember how Jason Lamb used to smoke all the bigger capacity superbikes on his 750 Pre-sling at the East London GP circuit? He used to lap the GSX 1100's and Katana's on that little bike.

A few years ago the 1985 GSX-R750 became eligible for classic racing in SA, and it immediately killed the class. If you are not on a 750 "Pre-sling", you're nowhere.

I went to watch Wayne Heaseman on these, fuck he was good!!

The Americans referred to it as the "slabside".

Also, look out for the 1985 FZ750, the one with the odd half-fairing.

First 5-valve, and also very fast, but overshadowed by the radical GSX-R.

 a GSX 1100

A friend bought a new one in 1983, silver. I thought it was the most stunning thing on two wheels for tar riding. I think they were better at long distance touring than racing.

I think it looks good but the cover for the passenger seat must be present, mimics their GP bikes of the day

I have been on the back of an 1127 Slingshot. hulle is morsig!!

So jy wil dit doen?!!!

When the Suzuki GSX-R1100 first appeared on the SA market, they were tested on SABC TV, cannot remember who were testing, but it reached a top speed of 266KPH, much

to the amazement of the public.

More that 30 years later, superbikes have only added just over 30KPH to that topend.
