Hi everyone, just joined the site. I've wanted a GSX-R750 for 3 years but didn't want to pay the high insurance rates. So I finally picked up an 03 750 track/race bike. I also have a 05 Honda 919 for the daily commute, a 03 Aprilia Tuono for the weekends, and a 94 Factory YZ250 for the dirt. Anyways, I'll look around a bit before asking questions. The 750 needs a little work. I sent the forks and shock to Lindemanns Engineering today. I'm looking for a front rim and oem front rotors. I'm planning on checking the valves, changing the spark plugs, brake fluids and oil this weekend. It also needs chain and tires. Going with the Pirelli DCIII. Anyways, that's it for now. I'll check out the classifieds. Mike

Will do. Can someone tell Crazy88 not to throw the rotors away? I don't have the post count to respond to the "For Sale" threads. :headscrat

Thanks. :thumbup: Will they work on the 03 750? I'm getting wave rotors later on, but have a few other things to take care of first. Painting the bike is one of them. Also, anyone have an oem front wheel? The previous owner low-sided in a race at WSIR. Sorry if I'm breaking the rules already, but I need to get the bike ready for the track.

I'll have to ask around. I can measure them tomorrow. I'll post them here or start another thread about my track bike. It needs some work, so I'll end up asking a lot of questions. Also, I took a bunch of pics of the bike to post on another site. I can repost them here. Lots of goodies on the bike. :D

Welcome to the site. I like the pics. What color do you plan on painting the 750? Not sure yet. A basic design like my Sea-Doo. 23015 23016
