Re: how bad is a 03gsxr

Same! they are good stoppie bikes but hard to control power when trying to slow it down. Good for street and HWY.

Gixxers are great stunt bikes. Steer away from the hate.

Re: how bad is a 03gsxr

Re: how bad is a 03gsxr

the frame will crack . there are cut outs on the inside of the frame which permit the valve cover to be removed without dropping the engine . if you correct this with some plating you will increase the life of the frame.

Re: how bad is a 03gsxr

04-05 600 and 750 you can put a 03 04 gix 1000 sub for added strength. i would try to get a 04 05 600 if you go with a gixxer
