    Gehr whAt mE woRRy?

    For my project bike, looking for a 6-speed, 1st generation GSX-R transmission in good shape (only).

    Got one off Ebay a few months ago & there are several issues with it so into the junk pile it goes. :(

    Argh...

    Hmmm
    Haven't time to do the research but there was another one posted on Ebay with a buy it now option & many more up close photos (seller has 1,000 good feedback responses) so I bought it. Hope the shift forks I have won't be out of specs with this tranny...

    I have an 86 gsxr1100 in my shop right now but the seller is on the fence of what to do with it. I'm pretty sure I used 750 katana parts to repair a 91 gsxr1100 trans a few years ago.

    Good luck

    kanatuna - post up details if the 86 1100 goes up for sale as I might be interested.

    Thanks for the advice.
    Found another one on Ebay last night, this seller had lots of pictures of the tranny which looks like it will be good.

    There is some pearl & bluish microflake in that white & microflake in that blue. No decals or stickers on this bike, emblems & stripes were airbrushed by the painter...

    Beautiful bikes. The one at my shop is not so pretty. A good builder and runs/rides....just needs love. I'll post up if it becomes available.
