[@BaronVonGrumble]

Just to pin this that the bike is now sold - so don't get too excited! sorry but thanks for watching the faffery ❤

[@theant9821]

Saw it on ebay a couple of weeks ago. Wish i had the money to spare.

[@ragerider6283]

You bloody tease! ; )

[@phatdubsta]

Got mine for 3400 with 17k on her, 2003 k2, same colours

[@FCT8306onTwoWheels]

You rock brother

[@AlfOfAllTrades]

Waffling and general faffery is what I come here for. And rants. And good motorbike content. You're the Baron!

Owning dozens of bikes, my k2 1000 was just on a different level, I miss it.

[@neevesybikes]

It’s GSX-R Monday 😍

[@BaronVonGrumble]

Haha, it is!!

[@rickanderton7830]

Stole my post 😂

[@f19ash]

Very much enjoyed your 750 video too 👍

[@magaudion]

We need a Chopsie/BVG/Neevsey ride out. And I suppose you’d better invite Fagan along too. That would be a giggle. Sort it boys. Oh, and don’t forget the boy with a leg to stand on 🤔😜

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Oooh lovely machine, if only I had more space, a few spare grand and it wasn't sold already. Great video and lovely to see Chopsy on the vid too!

[@BaronVonGrumble]

Thanks Buddy!

[@Crsf84]

Had a k5 1000 absolute weapon.

[@PHILIPWATSON82]

Looks so much better than new bikes in my opinion

[@mrdealx]

Think so too, much rather this style

[@GsxrJohny81]

I’ve owned my Gsxr1000 K2 for 17+ years now, been faultless and still looks like brand new with my airbrushed rizla paint job and polished frame and swingarm, maxton suspension and full yoshi Japan tri oval carbon can with titanium twin outlets among some of the things done. She’s always going to be in my collection, ive had many bikes and let a lot go but she’s always stayed, and like was mentioned in this vid, if you want to get a bit silly the K2 1000 is more than fast enough to wipe the smirks of many a panigale v4, Aprillia rsv4 and even S1000rr’s on the roads if your balls are large enough to push.

[@kleef465]

Still one of the best color scheme ever

[@johnschlesinger2009]

Unbelievable that it's twenty years old - looks immaculate!

[@L3eh123]

Wish you would do a series on how you detail bikes, they always look exceptionally clean on video 👌

[@BaronVonGrumble]

this one really is that clean - so did very little.

Chris + GSXR = hello memory lane

[@imjustink]

Green lane too

[@greyhorse1211]

I had a 2004 K4 for years. Magnificent. Smoothest engine I ever had in a bike despite the racy power output. No handgrip vibes. The engine to me was the 8th wonder of the world.

[@HeretiCflow]

Oh that takes me back! Your tour on the GSXR to Spain got me hooked on your channel and eventually made me get my license and start riding in 2018.

[@bcmoto868]

I’ve got a k1 750 and it’s honestly the most versatile and exciting bike I’ve ridden, it’s a shame all the new stuff doesn’t tingle the feels the same way these older bikes do 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@TrulyUniqueOne]

Had one of these that I commuted on for a year, exact same colours I swapped the 6 pots for tokico 4 pots, r1 master braided lines. Fast for an old bike ridden back to back with my flashed k6 1000 it wasn't lacking in the go department at all. Great bike

[@XclusiveAaron]

I had a 2000 GSXR 750 (Y) before the K1 but basically exactly the same as a K1. Absolutely brilliant that bike, then got a k5 750. Loved that even more. Then got a 2008 Yamaha R1 and honestly preferred the GSXRs!

[@danielsale3805]

I can't believe you're selling that bike I would never let it go.

[@FCT8306onTwoWheels]

The original gangsters, Baron Von Grumble and that Gsxr bike that I'll never forget you riding on that adventure trip starting out in the snow. In the snow! Thats gangsta :) Happy Monday brother

[@jayvdz]

One of the best bikes, ever. All my mates had one. It was bike du jour down at The Ace Cafe, back in the early 2000's. I was on a 750 at the time, then progressed to the K5 1000. Sadly that was stolen after I maxed it out with upgrades, otherwise I'd still have it today. What great times we all had on those gixxers. Magical memories.

[@zainshaikh96792]

Mine got stolen too 😢 I had a K2 GSXR1000 canadian model with a complete Brocks exhaust system and an extended swingarm

[@antonios2846]

Awesome bike. There's something unique about 2000 SBK before the electronics aids. They can give you such a pure riding experience

[@dwaynecooley9879]

Love the old gsxr 1000 k2

[@jamesastbury15]

Brings back so many memories!

[@tonywhitwham7604]

I've just bought a K2; collect it in a couple of weeks, can't wait, it's a beast!!

[@Vote.ReformUK]

Still had my K5 until 2021 but had to sell it because it just became uneconomical to repair. Best bike I've ever ridden and it proves to me that electronic aids aren't needed because it had so much feel I could read the feedback the bike was giving me. I've ridden some bikes where I lock up and the front goes and I'm like "wtf happened"? Couldn't tell what happened until I watch my camera footage back. However on my K5 I could so very obviously feel that lock up and deal with it no problems. The same with traction, I've never ridden another bike where I can feel the limit of traction, so many times I've just low sided, but the K5 I never crashed once as I could always feel when it was giving up. I loved it so much! I've been trying to find a replacement ever since and I just cannot, so I'm looking for another K5 but they're so expensive now they aren't worth it. I hate the electronics, I do not need it on the bike and I do not want to spend more than £5000ish as I don't want to care if I crash it. Though I wish Moto GP would ditch electronics and go for rider skill only, I'm not saying I'm anywhere near as good, but I think when you have the best riders in the world, like F1 they shouldn't have any aids.

[@3rror_unknown_user]

Great video Baron, she’s a beauty ❤ 2:07 😂 the gateway to the her canvas 🎉

[@DrBreezeAir]

I was a teenager when it came out. I fell in love with it immediately.

[@saltaireorangebicyclechopp8555]

I've been riding cruisers for 30 years, to me, it looks like it came out yesterday! Enjoyed the vid.

[@FATTYDH216]

Thanks Baron, great video . I raced a K4 SBK back in the day here in Oz, same lineage motor/chassis wise . I reckon what made them so exciting was that they delivered their goodness ,145ish stock/ 170ish race engine @The@Wheel and it was all over by 11K, not🙅‍♂️ 15K like the modern 1000’s I coach guys and girls on nowadays at track schools. No electronics etc and when they are so analogue, 170+ is a lot at your wrist/tyre … I still have mine, never selling it, worth $1.50 now😂 but what a machine ….. I love it . 🥰Gixxer1000

[@bingoberra18]

Love this, I was only 13 when this was new but this was one of the top ones on my list at the time.

[@gsxrpat6147]

Lovely. I have the K3 and been loving it all the way.

[@thecommentator6694]

Stunning machine, not surprised to see it's sold already!

[@timothy9596]

I've been lucky enough to have several GSXR's in my time. My K5 will always be my favorite but a close second was my K3. Great video as always BVG!

[@ezio9973]

always a good day when bvg uploads

[@allaboutkalergi5012]

Obviously if you can't afford a K5 - get a K2!! Love these real world classic bike tests. 👍👍

[@-DC-]

Incredible Motorcycle , Suzuki absolutely nailed it with this Generation.

[@MT10dan88]

Need to get down to Loomies more often. Great video as always Chris 🎉🎉. What a wonderful looking bike. Well looked after.

[@danielmcginley4195]

My favourite bike k2, fantastic machine that brings a smile every time I jump on mine

[@jasonleemamanddad]

thanks for upload barron von grumble

[@zainshaikh96792]

What a beautiful bike ❤ Love this model with this color scheme and decals. Looks sick af !!

[@ericlips2420]

Faffery is part of riding. Reassuring to watch. Nice little van rant as well! Thanks.

[@ODGreenZa]

When I was in high school around 1998 I always wanted a gsxr. Honestly the early naughties were the pinnacle of bikes. Rode a R1 for the first time around 2000 and honestly nothing compares today with the feeling these bikes brought. I own a new R1 and in comparison they just don't have the thrill these older ones gave you. Nice ride 👍

[@dankorolyk5917]

Great episode and brilliant bike

[@AndrewB416]

It looks brand new. Wow!

[@BaronVonGrumble]

doesn't it just!

[@benkelly2190]

Great bike, old school, rock!

[@iantribe1166]

Good to see you back on mate more vids please👍🏻

[@thecrazyicecreamman]

GSXR's really are something special, and you're bang on regarding the torque on earlier models. My K6 1000 is only a nats nadger off 60,000 miles and still manages to get the blood flowing into your trousers!

[@craigroberts4865]

Just checked out the ebay ad, soooo clean 👌🏾 what a lovely example!

[@hannesgottinger9284]

Nice one! Love the bit retro looks with modern injection system

[@drewstapleton8384]

"The things I do you for you guys" haha! Thank you Chris! 44 Teeth is entertainment, BaronVonG is a meditation.

[@philbarrett3739]

I still really miss my 750K7. One of the best bikes I ever owned.

[@vtecbobby]

Amazing bike, and condition looks flawless. Good luck with...and its sold!

[@lukepickersgill3469]

Keep the vids coming love the content!

[@calummackay8262]

I loved gsxrs when I was young boy in school always wanted one first big bike was a gsxr 750 k6 loved it

[@Editsjidanger]

Classic Barron vid.

[@zayansimon8107]

My dream bike, I'm 20 and had this on my mind since I first saw it in a magazine. I hope I'll be able to afford one soon

[@henrymarkstewart1067]

Your voiceover reminds of classic Peep Show 🤣 just bought my first Superbike; ‘only’ a 929 Blade but MUCK FE its fast when you wring its neck!!! How much faster can a RR-R actually be 🤯

[@Albertalorian]

I think this one, and your 916 are the 2 I would keep forever!

[@damonjamora6743]

Totally cool! Been through 36 bikes over the years. Settled with, yet another, Gsxr 750 to bring Bach that yesteryear and a Ducati Srteetfighter to enjoy the current! Loved the video! Cheers…..

[@chem599]

BvG back on a GSXR 🥳

[@royevans4581]

Bought a K2 with 15 miles on the clock as the numpty that bought it new decked it after what must have been quarter of an hour lol. It needed a full set of plastics that were K1 colours Blue/White. Loved that bike. Took it to Isle of Man Mad Sunday and it was awesome. I put a power commander in it, Arrow exhaust and K&N filter. Aah yes, also a TRE. It was lovely. 2nd gear at 70mph, sit back a little, take a brisk tug on the throttle and you can touch down again at 110mph lol. BOOTIFUL!

[@paulie2026]

I just got my black widow exhaust from England for my 2002 blade. I absolutely love the old fuel injected bikes

[@phatdubsta]

I got one of these, same colours about a month ago, lovely bikes 😎👌

[@RDYmoto]

Can’t beat an older gsxr, bought an ‘04 750 without 2nd gear for 1500 quid last year as didn’t have a bike to take to the ring with Rixxy. Couple of weekends swapping in a spare gearbox from the track bike and she was good to go, she’s a bit tatty and done 37k but pulls hard and so cheap i can’t bring myself to get rid!

[@Andrei_K1G1K]

Just rebuilt and did a full restomod on a K1 with 25K miles on it. It is very very nice!

[@TheRhodes76]

Beautiful in every way 👌🙋‍♂️😮‍💨

[@BeanieBiker_AutisticRider]

selling my K1 1000 as well, getting too old now and my back just doesn't like the position anymore, but still gorgeous to see her on the paddock stands in the garage, that is a very nice example of the K2.

[@575ban]

Well done in the sale Chris. I'd have liked that bike, it looks a belter. I hope the new owner looks after it as well its previous owners have.

[@darkknight1340]

I agree with you regarding the torque,I have a K1,and you can stick it in 6th and still pull away very rapidly from 30 mph. It's a joy around town in thar respect.

[@ManxAndy]

What a joy, on a wet n windy Monday evening…👌💪🇮🇲

[@Peskarik]

I had K3, K5 and L8 (GSXR1000R). L8 was brilliant, the best qs/blipper I've ever had or tried. Sold it for the 765 Moto2, do not do track and GSXR was underutilized on public roads, prefer the revvy and light 765. But K5 was the pinnacle. If I could find a low mileage original one now I would buy it, it was raw in all the good ways and smooth in all the important ways!

[@AlfOfAllTrades]

Selling something you love is difficult. I'm keeping my Vmax just because.

[@steveleader4570]

Been watching you and Al for a long time. That Gixxer used to be mine!!! How bizarre !!!

[@afoolandhismoneychannel]

Love a Superman Gixxer. 😍

[@sk2283]

Fabulous condition ! Great bike, I remember having a 2001 R1 club racing and the GSXR’s came out with instantly more power 🤷‍♂️🤣 and YES super bikes used to have room under the seat for your wallet etc. can’t even fit my glasses under the RSV4 seat !

[@Vtwin_Superbikes]

Gorgeous bike

[@ilvaporizzatore]

A proper beast

[@alexpryce555]

Yeah baby, retro rides are my fav ❤

[@BiglumpADV]

Got a K3 thou, same thing with better brakes and more grunt. Bloody brilliant machine, less weight than the modern crap and just as much fun. Well setup they are peachy 👌🏻

[@magaudion]

Excellent . My two favourite KZbinrs in unison. 🤡

[@raceride5681]

I had a k4, monster of a machine

[@peripheral1258]

Serididipee. Just watched Neevsey post one on the GSX750 which lead me to watch your 125 review ( because you guys on a 125 are marrrvelous ) and then this...

[@JWM-MT07]

Brilliant vid, love this geeza, I’m new to riding as of last year. When you mention the tyres were low and the chain felt slack…what made you think that? Just curious if I could gain some knowledge there! Cheers en

[@flamintasty]

Yo Chopsy, I’m gonna email you soon to see if you and Gregorio want to meet up, so he can have a go on my modified 2018 GSXR 1000R and compare it to his.

[@-wood-4067]

Had one, it was a beast. I put it down in the kink at RA. Damn it. Promptly replaced it with. K5 still have it.

[@cecilwilson5442]

Just grand👌

[@scottieray]

I wish bike meets where I live had such a diverse collection of motorcycles. Here, it is overwhelmingly cruisers or baggers.

[@molkie72]

I loved my k2, midrange on them was really good and would pull away from the new 06 R1 my mate had.

[@jirihorsky9600]

What is is about this day and GSXRs. First Neevsy then Baron. Not that I complain.

[@CCKawiZ948]

Beautiful bike! I still have mine. I was supposed to sell it when I got my Z900RS Cafe five years ago, but I'm finding it hard to part with.
