One on eBay right now with 46miles on the clocks...Suzuki gave it to a college in the 1990's, then it was stored for 15yrs,before being registered in 2019...£3595(UK).

Thanks!

It goes with the bike

Missed out. Not happy now.

Get a VFR.

@@robjohnson7806 had one 2000 -2003. A 98 model. Loved it. Handled great through bends and turns, was peppy as hell, and had great clearance. More than anything, I loved the long back seat. Was great for girls riding with me.

They look like a standard sports bike lean-forward position...?

@@lurker-mq4fp it has been about 17 years since I sold the bike. But it just seemed like the reach to the bars was unusually long. It put more strain on my lower back because my arms were so stretched out I could not use them effectively for suport. Only bike I have ever ridden that was less comfortable was a V-Rod muscle. The bars were also far forward, but also had forward controls for the brake and shifter. Was like you were folded in half riding it.

You must be a good size guy. I am 6 foot 2, and never really felt it unless I road an hour or more..

No it wouldn't be interesting 🤷🏽‍♂️

Manta Ray and RS2 were limited edition versions. RF is easier to work on than VFR, VFR has a bit better build quality. RF will be cheaper to buy. Performance is very similar, lools and sound is a matter of taste so i won't comment on that. VFR800 has one huge advantage in the fact that is has fuel injection. RF runs on carbs which with today's petrol is a bit shit. Both good bikes, decission is yours

Somewhat big & heavy for 1st bike but can be done by a sensible person with right mindset.

Depends on yourskills and your right wrist .If you dont push it to hard when you are a novice then you will be allright. My first real bike was a RF900R and had it for years, great bike. Tuned it later and the speedo meter did go over 300KM/H.

Get a 250 and ride the shit out of it then buy an rf900,

nope

Well maintained RF handles well(serviced suspension and fresh tires). Bandit engine or oil cooled Gixer 11 engine wont go in the RF frame unless you want to start cutting the frame and weld new engine mounts. Then you have a problem of downdraft carbs in RF and horizontal carbs in Bandit/GSXR. HUGE hassle. Easier and overall better deal is to chuck GSXR 1100W crank, rods barrels and pistons in RF engine. I did that, works a treat and ends with RF1100.

​@@Adikxx thanks for the reply. You're definitely selling it to me. That sounds like the sort of thing I would revel in. I still have my engine stand in mum's garage.

​@@AdikxxI'll have a look in your videos posted but if you haven't done so a video of the rf1100rw would be fantastic.

@@samuelkearney880 i did a little video showing RF1100 couple of years ago and i did another video showing RF1146 recently. I will be making a little more detailed video of RF1146 soon.

You can buy peg lowering kit and install handlebar kit, it would be better then. In stock form you might find it little uncomfy

@@Adikxx Good to know, thanks.!

Well, eventually I have bought a fully restored GSX600F from 1991 and it fits me well.🙂

@@woodyamsterdam well done, it's a good bike.

Hi buddy, it's very simple. You don't need to take the wheel or radiator off. The grill just clips on the front of the radiator. Put the bike on the side stand ,turn the bars and fit it on.

@@Adikxx from where i can get the radiator grill. give me website link

@@cbahazro You can get it on Ebay. Link below: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUZUKI-RF600-RF900-BEOWULF-RADIATOR-GUARD-PROTECTOR-COVER-GRILL-S043/372635278565?hash=item56c2cb1ce5:g:RckAAOSwxCxT2mSS&frcectupt=true

Też się do tego przymierzam ale jak na nią patrzę to szkoda psuć oryginał. Ale też zmienię bo czeka.mnie trasa w góry Polskie oczywiście 😂

@@Adikxx Can you please do a review on the Kawasaki ZX9R B models from 1995-1997 it will be appericeited thanks.

@@retroracer6660 Hi buddy. I'm hugely overwhelmed by work and other stuff so would struggle with it at the moment. It's a great bike and i nearly bought one in the past so who knows i might figure something out for it but can't promise at the moment. All the best buddy ans thanks for ur comments.

@@Adikxx I understand just try and do it in your spere time thanks like your videos

don't expect miracles from it but for that money i don't regret buying it.

@@Adikxx thank! You bought it via ali express?

Хахаха брат. Поздрав из Србије.

Had one. Loved the seat. Was great for the ladies..👍

That's the most beautifull part of it :)

The most attractive feature is her rear 😉 Futuristic and unique. No one had anything like it. The ladies all loved the comfortable seat and grab bar

Why do you in Germany claim the RF900R to have 135 HP (99KW), whereas here in Britain it's 125 HP (91 KW), I don't understand.

@@Adikxx Want an answer as an expert! Thank you for your Expertise

@@Adikxx Well, then I'll try to answer my own question by guessing. In Germany there are also RFs with a reduced effect (98HP), they have a 24mm diameter aspiration port and 115mm jets. I heard of 2 ways to open up the power, 36mm aspiration port (around 125HP) only, and 36mm aspiration port + 112,5mm jets (135HP). Could be the solution..

@@Jamie0707 if world was full of people like me it would be a wonderful place. Sadly world is full of different type of people. My response was virtually a copy of yours so i'f you're depressed by it i should feel the same way right? No point of getting depressed about things like that, there are bigger tragedies around us. What i meant by that response is that god knows really why the brochures show different figures. Your theory about 125/135 HP is interesting but I doubt it's the reason(i could be wrong though) UK bikes weren't actually restricted at all. Some German, Swiss , French and California models were indeed. 135 HP at the crank is a wishful thinking for that engine. I had my bike on the dyno 3 times(different engines and setups) plus i have a file full of dyno runs of RF900 from many other owners. This was given to me by them on FB forum. Usually those engines make between 114-118 whp stock. If you wanted to apply 5-6% of correction factor for drivetrain loss you'd get about 125 HP and for that reason i'd assume that figure is closer to reality. Similar thing was happening with GSXR 1100W. SUZUKI rated it at 155HP at the crank but stock bikes used to barely touch 125 whp which after correction factor is nowhere near what Suzuki claimed. You see it today too with that overhyped supercharged Kawasaki H2 SX. They sell people all that 200HP nonsense in showrooms and in reality bikes push 170whp..this is about 180HP at the crank. It's a 20 grand bike with milliins spent for research and development with results worse than Busa fromn 20 years ago... Interestingly though Suzuki made a bike that ALWAYS makes more power than advertised. BANDIT 1200 is rated at 98HP and it actually makes that at the wheel! With simple cheap mods it exeeds that! So really i don't have a great answer for you but that's what i would assume.

@@Adikxx Thank you, I'm sorry I misunderstood your initial answer by overlooking the obvious irony of it, you're a nice chap!😉👍 Very Interesting what you told me, that's the real answer. I just fulfilled an old dream of mine at age 52, as I bought my dream bike, (unfortunately a reduced effect 98HP) RF900R (1996 model) but therefore almost like new, here in Germany and I'm just in the process of ordering all the parts necessary to open it up to full power - that whole process is a real pain in the ass in Germany, you need an expert report and so on,, plus parts, papers changed, will cost me a lot.. But I purchased a really nice 1 owner bike with only REAL 6000 miles (9600km) on it, I polished it all up and it looks great, closest to new! I love really it 😁

Nick tun on the subtitles in your language

@@Adikxx I'd trye to change language or subtitles but I can't. My sun trye too... I think I go watching your video on his phone 😂 Thank you and happy new year

You have no idea what you are talking about and by saying this you made yourself look like a fool. This bike has huge coolant radiator, water jackets in cylinders and takes a few litres of coolant in the system.Water pump is located by the gear lever near to front sprocket. I can't believe you posted this... it's the most stupid remark this year !!!

@@Adikxx Air cooled v twin dickhead.

Triple cylinder 2 stroke that runs on ok kerosine.

For the time, it was different and fresh. And affordable. Obsolete jow, but I loved my 98'.

You've obviously never ridden one!
