    As a former GS500E racer I'm comfortable in saying no, it's not a potential LRRS race mount. The modifications punt it out of PTwins where it was underpowered and squarely into ULSB where it's VERY underpowered.

    You could play with the USCRA and Formula EX on it, or it'd make a decent track day mule once the lingering mechanical issues are sorted. Price is a touch high also.

    It'd make a fun little street ride or track day bike, but like Kurlon said, it's not a racer (not at LRRS anyways)

    good way to tell if it's a good deal is to check NADA or KBB. looks like it's over priced by about 700$, but that could change if he doesn't sell it close to the end of august as he has a time and cash crunch. Looks like a great little city standard.
