This bike has been in the NESR family since the beginning of time. I'm the third owner. Second owner put nearly all the 26k miles on it. I got it, promptly snapped an exhaust header bolt off in the head while prepping it for a trackday after riding it to the gas station and back, and then let it sit.
Two years later, I decided to make it good again.
Replaced the head with a low mileage used head. New gaskets, new bolts where old ones weren't in good shape, etc.
New air filter, brand new battery, plugs, etc.
It runs mint. Fires right up. Fuel injection is spot on.
Has an aftermarket full exhaust, carbon fiber can. MIG brand I think. It's loud, but sounds good.
Plastics are cracked, but streetable/trackable. It's a solid 20' bike. One rotor was swapped previously with a different rotor (warped) and the new one's carrier was painted green for some reason.
Has one broken bolt for one of the two seat mounts. I haven't bothered drilling it out yet. I probably won't. It's in the subframe, not the frame itself.
Needs tires. Not like "oh, they are just low on tread or old". More like, "it had good tires, I pulled them off because I was going to put track tires on it, then I needed to put something on in the meantime so I dug (literally) a couple of old dryrotted Pilot Powers out of my yard to roll it around on".
So that's all the downsides with this bike. It's fast. It's fuel injected. It's a jicksah. Parts are available at your local mini-mart they made so many of these things. Upgrades are cheap and easy. It's a trackday workhorse.
"But it's old!"
140hp @ 366lbs dry. Yeah. There you have it. It's no slouch.
Given the cracked plastics, bad tires and a couple little issues, it's cheap.
$2k. No haggle, no bullshit price. You can offer less, but I'll smile and tell you how it's a great excuse to keep it and track it next year.
OR, trade me a 4 stroke 300-500cc water cooled modern dirtbike (NO DRZ's, KLR, XR, DR's, etc) that has all the right light up bits so it can be registered right away.

The early 2000s GSXRs are amazing bikes. I'd pick this up in a heartbeat if I didn't have a 600 and 1000 already
Sale pending.
