[QUOTE="poncho, post: 166086, member: 16493"] I have a 95 and love the bike. If you are a beginner I feel the bike will be a handful. It took me about a dozen rides to feel comfortable with the power hit. I love it now, but am in the process of improving the performance. A pro mechanic that has worked for the Suzuki factory team in the past recommends using 2 cylinder base gaskets. This raises the port timing and smooths the hit. In addition, I have been told that the factory silencer is the best one available for this bike. Simply modify it by shortening it by 3 -4 inches. make it flush with the end on the side panel. This will improve the bikes top end performance. Make sure you break down the shock linkage and steering head to inspect the bearings. Mine were almosted rusted solid from years of washing and no grease....... The top end probably needs to be checked after a year. Probably needs at least rings. Price seems fair to me, but only if it's really clean. Good luck and welcome to the best sport in the world....... Mike [/QUOTE]
