So I've owned a few bikes over my years but never a crotch rocket. I'm getting a pretty fair deal even tho its a 91 and probably been beat all its like. But I'm mechanical and its stock, i look to convert it into a street fighter style bike. You know the raised bars and such. I'm not really in the need for 150+ mph rides but it does sound like fun having that power here if need be.
Its rated at 145 hp w/top speed of 172 for that year and model. I just want to do 60 mph wheelies for miles of i want tbh.
But any advice on these bikes maybe little knacks they've been known for if any? Do they go thru clutches fast or forks need rebuilding often? Are the engines pretty sound, like don't throw rods or spin bearings on an unusual basis?
My mind is pretty much made up, i have a mind set that I'll be taking it next week after i look over it. Just looking to see other opinions.
