I don't mean to bash on that generation GSXR, but the 2004 model was a HUGE improvement.

If you've already got an '03, then ride the wheels off it, but if someone's looking to pick up a track bike, '03 or older GSXR would not be at the top of my list - they just handle like tanks compared to the other Japanese I-4's from the same model year.

that does seem to be a very reasonable price for that bike though, and it would be hard to find an '03 R6, 600RR, or 636 for that amount.

I'm just saying it wouldn't be my first choice - it's definitely not a BAD choice at that price.

Not trying to dissuade anyone from buying, but being educated before making a purchase is important.

That's definitely a disposable bike, but it has basically NO add-ons. No suspension upgrades, doesn't say anything about stainless brake lines; it doesn't even have track bodywork... Riding it wouldn't be bad, but fixing it after a crash would be sinking in more money than it's worth.
