It's a 98 GSXR 600. I was wondering if anyone had any information on the bike and I have a few general questions about getting a used track bike.
Here is what I know of the bike. I bought it from a well known pro racer who I've dealt with before. He said he got it at an estate sale in NH and it was the only track bike in a group of 17 Suzuki's from the sale. He lapped it without problems before he sold it but never raced it. It has custom made fiberglass plastics. Possibly a rebuilt front end and is basically stock aside from that.
The problem I'm having right now is it will start and idle but wont keep a nice idle hot. I am unsure if they are stock brakes in the front. I know between little and nothing about carburetors so any info about the issue would be appreciated. Also I want to look for other potential issues before they come up. I know the obvious like brakes and wheel bearing play and head shake but anything track-bike specific to check would be great.
Here are some pics if anyone could give me some background on the bike it would be great.
