    They've always had different levels of glass. Just call em up and talk to Kent about what you want/need.

    My current gf's brother,and his friend invented Maier in a garage as a hs project.
    He's still making body work,but more on the side by side end of things. Mark and Jim Maier.

    93 was the first water cooled year, I had one for 20 years. Will always hold the distinction of being the heaviest gsxr ever made. 94 had the blue forks. 96 birthed the srad lineup.

    We will never tell you that it's a bad idea to own one/two/all of these.

    Go for it.

    Man, I thought those graphics were bitchin' when they came out. Probably because they were a close match to my favorite pair of side-zip parachute pants.
