I’m not ashamed to say I’m deep into a midlife crisis and just passed my test and got a gsxr 600… 43 years young and loving it !!!!

I had a K4 in my 20’s that I rode all the way from Bristol to the Alps. I’m 40 now and would love another GSXR 600. So much fun without being scary! Used to pop and spit flames from the Yoshimura. Loved it.

i wonder what kind of midlife crisis a biker goes through that has already ridden 1000s....

Great news! You should contact Suzuki to see if they can do you some favours with cheap / free replacement parts. They go out of their way to promote their original parts program & are usually pretty helpful with these sorts of things. Please please make some vids of the restoration! Can't wait.

I can see how happy you are, life can be complicated but when you know what makes you happy it's not that hard. I hope the UK gets a good summer for you to get out and ride a lot!

Idk why I find it so satisfying when someone buys a lightly crashed bike and returns it back to old glory for pennies on the bargain? Definitely happy when my bike went down that it’s a naked bike so I needed like 2 parts to get it back looking proper. The downside was that one of the parts that needed replacing was the stator cover so the flatbed laid it down on the opposite side so the oil wouldn’t leak and scraped the frame that would’ve been unscathed if he hadn’t done that.

I’m 61 and have a 2017 GSXR750 and love riding the twisties here in Brisbane will be watching the project with interest

I just bought an L1 GSXR-750 last week, Neevesy! We're bike twins!

Brilliant news, you're one of us Neevesy 👍🏻😎 Keep us posted of your journey 🙂

Nice Neevesy. I have ridden a lot of GSXR 750 and owned a couple. They are truly a great bike. I have myself recently purchased a 2015 Panigale 899 2 weeks ago. This is my first ducati, and it really is a theatrical bike to ride and good when you get it right. But I have to say the GSXR 750 is easier to ride faster on. Enjoy. ✊️

K5 1000 here. Best content on youtube regarding bikes. Cant describe how much i love Suzukis. When company does something from bottom of em hearth. ❤

Just turned 60 and still riding my 03 gsxr 750 and keeping up with alot of them newer bikes..You go Neevesy!!😎👊

I had a 2011 GSX-R750 and it helped me learn how to work on bikes. It had been crashed via low side more then once similar to your bike. The engine function was perfect so I didn't care that it had a ton of scuffs, broken fairings, shaved down foot pegs. I replaced everything I could with OEM parts. It was very fun getting it all fixed up. I ended up trading it in for a 2023 GSX-R1000 but I wish I kept it to have it along side.

Recently retired and just bought an SV650 in Canada after a life of disappointment riding Harleys. You need to enjoy the ride now. Impress yourself nobody else.

I remember being on the back of a Suzuki 750 with the old man as a 11 year old passing a line of cars so sweet....

Awesome. I love the fact Neevesey isn't slightly worried to buy a crash damaged bike and bring it back to glory. I did this with a Yamaha R1 4C8. It wasn't crash damaged but just very very neglected. With my very limited skills I stripped it down, deep cleaned every book and cranny (the dirt and grime was unbelievable) and then serviced it and refitted some new parts. Then deep cleaned all the panels and touched in damage. It looked so awesome when finished. Can't wait to see the restoration 💯🏍️👍✊

Can we just appreciate how effortlessly Bob handled that GSXR

Exactly

Good stuff! Looking forward to see the result.

"everyone needs a Bob" - the most apt saying, we all have one in one way or another our group of friends version is actually called "bill" haha

Good for you mate! Enjoy it.

Love the 750 content. I have a L3 750 and it is my favorite bike of all time! Best blend of power and handling and can keep up with any modern 1000 for the most part.

Congrats, enjoy!

Brilliant, looking forward to the rebuild.

Congrats.Look forward to see the build take place.

Love new bike day, thanks for sharing!

Great stuff ! Cant wait for the next instalment

Great vid , really looking forward to this little series

Congrats on the new bike neevsy looking forward to watching the build!

Move to the US you can buy one new for about $12,000! I have been considering doing so before it’s discontinued.

Thoroughly enjoyed that nee set thank you

Neevesy, they're $12,500 here in the US, brand new. Come over! Ship it back. Thanks for your great, detailed, informative, personal reviews, Sir.

Kid in a sweet shop springs to mind 🏁

Congratulations! Fun project.

Congrats Neevesy! What a legend! After preaching us for years on this channel, about how good GSXR-750 is, now you're going to show us. For a guy living in Holland, it's pure coincidence that I'm working in Lincolnshire till summer. Look forward to meeting you in person at Cadwell Park if possible.

Your smile is everything that's right with owning a motorcycle Neevesy.

Bloody great! A beautiful machine worthy of true resurrection! I’m really looking forward to seeing your GSXR come strongly back to life and many future videos of you enjoying the experience 😊

Great buy Michael👍 I'm sure it's gonna be a flawless machine once built up. Cannot wait to see more clips on it!

I’m 58 and have a 750 K8 for the last 10yrs and love it

corrrr. im also excited!

❤❤❤ love you for that…ive done the same 4 years ago and got my gen 1 busa….no more words

NIce to see the love for @RRCRestoration - look forward to more on this (just bought a Gen 1 SV 650 curvy in the UK and might do a few trackdays when I am there).

I know the blue and white is traditional, but I always lusted after the black and wine red.👍🏻

This is amazing bud, I only bought one 2 weeks ago due to your enthusiastic videos. This is gonna be great content for the channel can’t wait 👏

Subbed for this. Great to see your passion show. And i agree, everyone needs a Bob. 😅 She's in good hands 🙌🏻😎🏍💨 Good luck!

Very happy for you! That bike deserves to be saved and no better team to do it. Enjoy the process & thanks for documenting for us fans around the world. Cheers to ya ✌👊

Lovely Speedster!

Congrats on your purchase Neevesy I’ve just seen a 2024 advertised or at least a test ride on in nice to see emm still being produced Best o luck with your rebuild lovely bike 🍻👍

Great to see despite all the bikes you have ridden and have access to how exited you are about this one. Its that enthusiasm that makes your channel so good. Everytime a gixer 750 passes me on the roads round here (near to you) I will be thinking is that neevsey?

Me too, like the colours of the L1 - I did buy a GSXR 750L Slingshot a few years ago, don't use it very often but have always loved the way they look. 👍

Hello Neevesy, Congrats on the Gixxer 750! I’m sure it’s going to turn out great in the end, how exciting! I’ve been watching your videos (MCN and now your channel) since the time that you had the yellow Ducati 848 streetfighter long- termer. I have always enjoyed your reviews and have learned so much about the motorcycle world (design, chassis, suspension, riding technique, etc.) from you. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge and experience with us. I hope to get to your level of riding ability one day. Best of luck with the Gixxer, and Greetings from Los Angeles!

Great video mate Iv been watching since 2012 or early 2013 when I was doing my full bike licenses. Showing my age now 🫣🤫 and I’m here supporting you on your own journey doing content for your own KZread channel and I’m still loving every minute of your content. Keep up the amazing content.

Very nice! Congrats on scoring one of your favorite bikes. Damn it! With all the GSX-R videos I am getting the itch to go out and pick one up here in the states.

Welcome to the club 😎👍

Best motorcycle content on KZread. Best wishes with the new bike, she doesn't look too bad at all

I still have my 2008 GSX-R 750 and still love it. I have my 3rd track school event scheduled at COTA this coming September.

Great score Michael. Well done. That Porsche 356 Speedster is magnificent

I don't know what it is about those older bikes of that era... they're special and give a different type of excitement. I just can't feel that with modern bikes...not sure why really but for me that's how it is.

Welcome to the club.. k1 34k km real tidy real sport bike riding.. keeps up with the late model gsxr750's on track 🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿💕 nz

Bike looks in great condition considering. I predict a lot of happiness from this purchase, great idea.
