About a year ago we saw one of these here on RSBFS and Mike shared that “The legend that is the Suzuki GSX-R began stateside in 1986. The original air/oil cooled slab sided model was followed by the Slingshot era, denoting rounder flanks and tweaks to the engine tuning. And when the air/oil cooling had reached its maximum efficiency, traditional water cooling was finally introduced in a quest for more power. From the mid 1980s through the late 1990s the big Gixxer went through many iterations and changes, gaining some weight along the way and evolving into a different machine altogether. And with the collection world crying out for original Slabbies, and the rise in valuation of the Slingshot models, the latter year water pumpers will not be far behind.”
This bike is just that, a 1996 GSXR 1100. The photos do not tell the whole story, so we hope some of our readers are close enough to check it out in person.
The bike we featured last year was minty mint with less than 10k miles and it’s BIN price was $8,950.
“Arguably the best of the last-gen models” as Mike stated and many will likely comment.
Good luck to the buyer and seller!
