A lovely genuine example with all original parts in the ONLY livery to have one of these sought after beefcakes! Arguably (but IMHO no argument) the best looking incarnation of these legendary "Gixxers" in fact I think the best looking bike of that era
Saw this in my favourite colours with twin headlights, twin exhausts & white wheels & had to buy my first 1100 "Slingshot"! Rode it today to get a fresh MOT (passed with no advisories) & LOVED it, more power than I was expecting for an old girl yet easy to ride in traffic as well.
It was a European import in 2014 (well all Jap bikes are imports essentially!) & has been in a collection then last owner bought off a mate & recommissioned it including new clutch & sonic clean/balance carbs so it now starts on the button & pulls like a train
The bike has done 48,500 KM's which equates to just over 30,000 miles which is nothing for one of these engines & it comes nice & standard with part history & with all the nice stock parts (even the screen), owners service manual & original sales brochure & if you look at the overall condition it is a lovely unabused example ready to ride & enjoy this Spring/Summer & many more! Only defect to mention which is about a £200 smart repair - a crack on the left front fairing "ear" where the mirror fixes & is very typical of 80's bikes, one knock is all it takes & its a weak spot of the era but an easy fix.
This period of super bikes are just starting to shoot up & tipped as a great investment - especially when you look at the prices of 2-strokes or the likes of "Fizzys" & "Kettles". So this is a lot of rapid & practical bike for your money. I am really surprised at how rare they are too - try finding another blue/white one with all its original parts including seat cowl in this condition ... you'll struggle!
