my 3th bike was a 1990 GSX-R 1100, and i still have it and it still rides. it now has 165.000 km on it. off course the bike gets a bit old now.... but so am i. it is raw, but it is fantastic.

My first brand new motorcycle was a blue and white 1990 GSX-R 1100. 9 motorcycles later and that Gixxer was still my favorite of all of the. Wish I still had it.

1990 most beautiful of all gixxers

They had an amazing presence. A true cult bike.

What I loved about the '90s 1000/1100 bikes is that they all were uniquely different in styling dept. While I ( mostly...ish) like today's bikes, they look much more similar, and less separation, between rivals. Still identifiable, but less and less. Even up to early 2000s lots of distinct looks. But today's rivals are so similar.

These bikes are iconic to the bike world. I have owned a 91 fpr 23 years and still live to ride it over any newer bikes. The sound and ride is like no other. Yes they are getting harder to find and going up in value.

As a disciple of the Holy Order of Sacred Green, I've often wished Kawasaki did an 1100 version of the ZXR. Twin round headlights and big CCs: perfection.

Still have my 90 GSXR750 w 19k miles and a 85 GS1150 to go with it.

Those late 80s / early 90s GSXRs will always be the proper silhouette of sportbikes IMHO....

One of the best looking motorcycles ever made, miss those dual round headlights.

I HAD THE SAME BIKE FOR 23 YEARS AND I WAS THE ORIGANAL OWNER UNTIL ONE DAY IN 2013 I TOOK IT TO A SHOP FOR THE FIRST TIME TO DO A CARB REBUILD AND HE TOTALY DESTROID THE MOTOR WHEN HE CLEANRD THE CARBS WITH A WIRE BRUSH

This bike and the Honda CBR 900 RR are the nicest bikes from the 90s! I never had one but I still dream about it.

I remember riding pillion for the 1st time on my college mates 1100, it was tuned also and I couldn't believe the speed at the time,just as well he was a young but talented rider.

Just bought one as a resto project. This video gave me a lot of info that I needed, thank you!

Appreciate that Quake 2 soundtrack ;) Perfect for such a beefy bike and amazed that this thing manages to use less fuel than my 250 four cylinder also from Suzuki

I had a 1988 750. it was a great bike.

Suzuki ''oiler'' will live forever.

Wish I still had my 91 1100. I did so much work on that thing. Back when race tech was just getting popular I had them rebuild my shock and forks for my weight and style. Excellent handling bike.

i have had 2 1990 gsxr 750 and both were blue/white and i loved then both. always ran k&n filters, dynojet jet kits, vance & hines pro supersport exhausts, pirelli dragon supercorsa 120/70zr17 and 190/50zr17 tires. ive owned a bunch of bikes in my 32+ years of riding and love riding my current zx14r.

Fantastic video and bike nothing like the pure fun from the older bikes

Theee Quintessential Squadron Leader of all times.....

Another great review

Good review. Just to let you know my GSXR-750 SRAD from 1998 also cooks the rider in urban traffic. It gets seriously hot. I only take it out on days where the temperature is 21C or below. It has a sole coolant radiator whilst the new GSXR-1000's have an additional oil radiator cooler. But the old school body styling with the bigger front fairing and twin headlights has lots of appeal.

owned a brand new 1990 750. I really want a 1990 1100 in black, but they are hard to find in good condition so I just got a deal I couldn't pass up on a 1991 zx11 in very good condition. I prefer the look of the gsxr, but I am finding my zx11 to be a more comfortable ride than the gsxr750. I recall the sore wrists, buzzing hands, and cramped legs. Performance is better than the gsxr1100 according to specs. Zx11 has lower center of gravity. But the 1990 gsxr is the most beautiful bike ever made. I still want one.

I LOVE the 90/91 750. The one in the picture (1:55) is gorgeous!. Maybe tied with the CBR600F2 for best lookin scoots of the day, or EVER for me. Nostalgia?...for sure, but I had a 2014 GSXR1000 that I also loved. It was very beautiful and what a KILLER bike...Just not as striking as the early 90's mounts, they were works of art, with just an shot of Steam Punk thrown in

Nice review, thanks for making it and for uploading. Great bike, superb styling wow.

I could have bought the 86 model 1100 for $4000 black and gold. Heaps of power and good in corners.Nice bike for the price

Got a GSXR 750 1993. This one is surely one I must own some day. 👍 for the 1997 Quake soundtrack . my childhood

I think that sacs 1100 was a millestone in motorbike history. The arrival of this model changed that we call today motorbike

That Tekken 3 song tho 🔥 Legendary bike

The WERA 1987 Yoshimura GSXR1100 (24 hr race bike) made 175 rwhp.

Lendária !!! The best... Brasil - RJ.

20 seconds in, I got one sat in the garage!!!! 1987!!!! Apparently worth good money so I'm told!!

Great vid!!!!

Legendary!!! :D

Cool bike great review

Out of the CBR 1000F, FZR 1000 EXUP and the GSXR 750 which I owned around that time I still remember the GSXR as the most fun but damn uncomfortable riding position.

Currently got a stock 1100 K with about 10000 miles on the clock, fantastic bike don't really have any issues with the heat coming off the bike with city riding as I also have a 91 Triumph Daytona 1000 and that roasts your legs in the summer. When I brought the GSXR I was actually looking to buy a Slabby originally but a decent one in the UK are currently going for anything above £7000 but found the K fir a really good price so couldn't say no, Also have a 84 GSX 1100 E which is a fantastic bike, I have owned and ridden modern bikes but I now find them a bit boring as there are too many rider aids getting in the way, also Its always better when the metal in your garage is going up in value and not down.

The 1100/750 GSXR 1990 are my favorites GSXR even if i also use an 1000 k1 .... in original condition of course !

After having slabside gsxrs for decades I finally got a GSXR 750K last week [ see video ] it needs tidying as it has not been used for some years and was totally covered in dust . The tank is totally rust free inside , and I came about the bike by placing a wanted ad' on a forum on Facebook. The original owner contacted me and really helped out with a great price as the bike will need commissioning .

i was surprised to hear that the engine generated so much heat towards the nards i can see why they went water cooled eventually

Loved my 1989 K Model. At the time the back tire was huge. It was a 160 🤣

Still willing to blast off on these beautiful machines 🤙

Got one 1989, it is a real hell cat, comfortable to drive and has good handling even for drivers how do not cut kurves on the edge of their knees. It is old but has quite a cool design, it is still reliable but long rides in sqaut will dear to fell your knees, beeing honest as an average rider you won't be a jokey for a periode of more than 20min to 30 min, so this shouldn't bother anyone. Sofar I can just recommend this bike even if I am not used to modern supersports bikes and this one is not light wight with their 445kg as shown on the identification plate but it has enough reserves to transport your grilfriend and packs, if you want to and got one. It is clear, it is not an Ducati and not state of the art but quite awesome. Pure riding without the pretty little helpers is also something yould could interpretated as somekinde of a feature.

Jak zwykle świetny materiał. Naprawdę pomyśl o temacie PL.

I have an 86 GSX-R1100, blue & white (as they should be😆) 38,000km and mostly stock except for a yoshi 4 into 1 a YSS rear shock and valve emulators. The electronic anti dive was starting to give issues, so i blanked it off and fitted the valve emulators, world of difference😄kept the anti dive units on for a original look but they are non operational, and a period Yoshimura 4 into 1. If i could find an original exhaust i would buy it, even tho they are restrictive. Ive had it since 2000 and used to have a 89K model as well. The 86G model is lighter by 20kg makes a bit less power, due to being 1052cc against 1127 for the K and has smaller carbs. The Ks handling was always a bit...iffy, and Phil Mellor crashed and died on one at the TT due to poor handling at race speed, Jamie Whitham, also on a 1100K also crashed badly. The K was responsible for production bikes to be banned from racing at the TT for years. I ended up selling the 89 and keeping the 86. Theres no school like the old school.😂

Back in the day that bike was the boss !! The size and displacement was very intimidating. It was always considered a straight line bike. If you road next to a CBR 900 in the mountains, you would get smoked and left behind. Guys trying to ride it in the twisty roads said it was so wide and heavy, like trying to muscle a cow back and forth.

How can a bike be so beautiful elegant and intimidating at the same time. One day I will make you mine

Cool video 😎👍

It was fun to watch!

Thanks

Great video i was wondering if maybe make a similar video on the Yamaha FZR 1000 Genesis and EXUP thanks.

so cool!! I want one

Miss that style bike

Can you please do a video on the watercooled 1100s?

I have a 1994 W Are you gone review that one to?

Great video!! Keep it up! (y)

It’s awesome how far they have came since, 600’s now make the power these things made

Apex adjustable clipons. Best bars around.

Great review thanks I still have my 1100 - l model bought it in 1998! I’ve just pulled it out of its auto cacoon and am throwing a bit of coin at it, first up I’ve just got new dynatek ignition and coils and I have a brand new set of 38mm smooth bore flat slides on the way 👊🏼 I do get the sore wrists these days so would love to know we’re you bought your 1inch risers from, my bike is also the blue and white such a great bike

Adik super "jaja" świetne

I have an old fzr1000 and the problem with old bikes is the weight...i rode an earlt r1 and the handling is night and day

Last year I test ride my friend 11 L O-260 kmh just 10-12 second... so quick and fast superbike..I try to find one...

I had a 89 750 and a 90 750RR. FYI the 881100 it was the least imported of all gsxr's yes even the 750LE. With that, I'm wanting to collect any that are blue and white. From 84 till 92.

Only gixxer only Suzuki

Nice bike

The 1100 sling shot awesume bike hard to find

it is an old but a great motorbike from the 80-90's years

Those clip ons are 750... Also the 750 was a six speed transmission... I rode my 1990's and 91's every day... Rear tire 180/55/17 1100 had clip ons on top of the triple clamp. I owned a 90 and a 91 1100's and 3 750's including a 1990 Yoshimura 750 limited edition.....

Miss my 95 Gsxr 750 pink purple... First bike...

Great review! Please do one more of the watercooled gsxr 1100 👌

I still have my 750 project slingshot but just bought another 1100 slabside

I have a ‘98 750 SRAD.. big fan of late 80s, 90s sport bikes.. I also have an Aprilia RSV, Kawasaki ZX12R, Honda Fireblade, Kawasaki ZXR 750H2. Would like to add an 1100K or 1100M in white/blue

Just got one !! Love it is an animal

What's that pipe from tank to handle?

Here in Europe many of gsxr 1100 was turned in some "street fighters".Shame on their owners they ruin the beauty.

My heart beats strong when I see this old friend of mine in action. I saw every inch of Europe with her, and You're right, vibrations were so high, that rear view mirrors were useless (but no one ever approched from that direction)......but at eighteen, You're made of steel, and Your girls too, so, who cares of vibrations?

What is the name of the First and Second music?

gsxr sacs 💪👍👍

Can I ask what replacement mirrors you have on yours please. Many thanks 😊

Mad Max Style 😁

Makes me miss my 750L .... Still a tough looking bike, always will be.

Sacs queria decir suzuki advanced coolin sistem , pero de avanzado no tenia nada ese sistema de enfriamiento

the first man whos ever said he can get 50 plus miles to the gallon out of a GSXR 1100K. Teach me your secret brother x

Is the First music what singer?

I don't agree with the ergonomic criticism nor the higher bars. I'm 6'1" and think they are comfortable, you just have to accept the the riding position, not try to ride it like a touring bike. Had my 91' for many many years, and now own several others 91-95, both 750's and 1100's. If you want a touring bike, just buy a touring bike. : )

I currently own the gsx1100g 1992 the naked sister of this monster got to love it when boy racers try and race you in ther ricer cars because the G dose not look fast at all lmao

if you have an 1127 make sure you unplug that wheelie wire under the seat lol... it makes first gear even crazier

Reminds me of my 99 katana

Witam widziałem ostatnio fajny egzemplarz miał dwa zegary i był niby z 94 roku, natomiast na kilku portalach sprzedażowych roczniki 93 miały trzy zegary gdzie jako trzeci była temperatura. Możesz opisać w jakich modelach i do jakiego roku wychodziły w wersji z 2 zegarami? No chyba że kolo podał złą datę produkcji bo temperatura pojawiła się pewnie po wejściu chłodzenia wodnego, No i rozniecę w skalowaniu zegarów niektóre modele mają wyskalowane do 320.

i have 1986 gixxer1100! never sell it!

soundtracks names??? pliss

The 90' " L " model was 👍👍👍... regardless of the 89' " K " model which had suspension issues, made 138bhp where the 90' made 143bhp and the 89' had a 17In where the 90' had an 18in...

Really nice one go for 10000 dollars in the US.

Motorcycles nowadays just can't compare

drilling out the air bleeds woke it up

wery strange, mu gsx r 1100 from 1990 had red from 13000 till 15000 rpms, and handlebars where under the triange of the fork. RPM clock was starthing from 3000 rpms.

160 mhp......? In 4th gear

It's always a mystery as to why this type of full-faring bike was never more popular and taken up by the other bike makers?

👍👍Nice @ss bike and great facts about the one and only Beautiful GSX-R 1100 👍👍
